  • Wow! What a difference! I can't wait to get my feet done... but in a way, I don't want to cause I'm scared. I have really large bunions on both feet, AND I have flat feet. My doctor said that my feet are positioned wrong as well.... MAN, my feet hurt so bad at times... but I can't get surgery untill my feet stop growing, and I'm only 13 years old...

  • @Wildheart228 I admit it was a little scary to think about having surgery. But it was really worth it. Be sure to look at my update because it looks even better now, and I don't have any pain.

  • picker68,

    Thanks for posting. Am considering the same. Question though, which bunionectomy did you have? Austin or Lapidus?

  • @NinaBlueNJ Neither! It was a Scarf/Akin procedure. Good luck.

  • did it hurt after u woke up or the numing had gone

    and where u in a weelchair after

    plz tell me i got to have mine dune

  • @jetnight88: I was awake the whole time.  When the numbing wore off it hurt quite a bit for the first day. I didn't have a wheelchair but that would have made life a little easier the first week. After one week I was fine with crutches and could get around ok.

  • who to do bunion surgery?? orthopedic surgeon or podiatrist??

    Someone please reply. These are all good comments but where to go?

  • Thank you for posting this, I had mine done 10 days ago so not seen the scar yet! Same foot too!

  • ooh i just got m left foot done 3 days ago, im at home all bored with my foot up.. i hope mine heals fast, i have to go teach in 2 weeks.. eek

  • Man am 25 and my feet go out. :-/

  • I have often wondered about having the surgery purely from an esthetic point of view. If you visit my channel at posturevideos you can see my video on bunion self treatment to see the severity of my bunion. About the same as your left one. I just think it is really unattractive and I'm so sporty I want good alignment. Did you have yours done for pain relief?

  • I need a bunionectomy

  • Did you later develop a problem with hammer toe of the toe next to the large toe?

  • i had bunion surgery done 2 weeks ago. But my foot looks nothing like that, the doctor has basically stretched out my big toe away from the lest of my toe. It really looks worse than when i started, the doctor keeps telling me within a couple of months it will all join back together. I had a screw placed in my big toe. Do you also have screw?

    Your foot looks great!
