[quote=Anonymous]I had it done two years ago. It was more pain than I expected for the first two to three days, but I wasn’t great at staying ahead of it with the meds. after that, recovery was simply a process of gradually increasing the amount of time on your feet and flexibility. I was serious about PT, so I was back to running with minor discomfort within three months and pain free by the fourth month. I still get some minor numbness in my fourth toe from walking outside when it’s cold, but that was nerve damage that occurred due to the bunion not the surgery. I also have a sensitive spot that hurts like hell if I hit my foot on something or feels weird if I just bump it, but that happens rarely. Overall, best decision ever.  FWIW, prior to surgery, my pain wasn’t constant but it was unpredictable. Like, I could hike four miles one day and be fine, then on another be in excruciating pain after only two.  I also could try on every shoe in DSW and never find one that fit. Surgery didn’t make all shoes comfortable, but now I can at least get the comfort shoes on my feet. [/quote]
