I know it's best to leave your bandages on even if you are curious about the wound. It's very important to keep infection out and keep it covered very well. You will feel better when you get your stiches out and get a new dressing on your foot. Sounds like you are doing very well. The boot is not that bad since it protects your foot but allows you to walk without the movements that might hurt it. I had to wear it for quite a few weeks. You will be glad you had the surgery in the end. Be sure to ask about physical therapy to get that big toe moving as soon as possible. Mine got quite stiff and although it has been several months, it is still sore at times. keep it moving...:) Hi Lucy, no getting the stiches out doesn’t hurt at all.

First few days i felt awful..mainly because of the pain killers. I couldnt put any weight on my foot at all till over a week after. Now i dont really need my crutches, but i take them with me incase it starts to throb. I dont really know what its going to look like or what they have actually done to it. I tried having a little peak and it and i seen what i think might be a new type of stitch that keeps the wound together to help it heel..Just wondering if anyone has had this and if it hurts when getting them out as im going on monday to get my bandages removed and to get what they call a air boot or moon boot i dont know!!

I am moving soon and have to downsize. I paid $1250 for it and am hoping to get $900. I am a single mother barely making ends meet. Is that a price that would work for you? If not, what would feel good to you? I do not know what the shipping would cost, but I still have the original box. If you email me, please write "Babylock Machine" in the subject so I don't accidentally delete it. Thank you! Katrina 831-234-4031 Hello Diane,

I do have flat feet like yourself, but my doctor encouraged my surgery. It got painful to walk at times, and sometimes even with the weather it hurt. My left was far worse than my right, so I opted for just one foot. I would talk to your insurance company just to see if they cover it. But if it hurts, you should get it looked at. I would suggest seeing another podiatrist and getting another opinion. And make sure you explain your discomfort in the examination. Hope this helps! Hi Rose,

But what does this have to do with my painful bunion. Is it the insurance company discouraging against surgery or what, my bunion is the size of a big marble, and sometimes it hurts even when nothing is touching it. Some advise please Hello everyone,
