I had bunion surgery with two screws 6 months ago.

I had bunion surgery with two screws 6 months ago. I still have limited toe mobility and pain when walking. I can’t walk fast or run, and my toe cracks when I wiggle it. I also get pain after driving for more than 40 minutes. My surgeon said I don’t need physiotherapy or exercises. How long did it take you to walk normally and return to work? I really hope this won’t last for the rest of my life. 0:01 / 0:10 CourteousRadish9465 Did you have surgery and now you're living pain free (from your bunions)? Are you so glad you had it done? Does anyone here regret their surgery? Did it end up worse than it was before? Did it just not make it better so you wish you wouldn't have done it? Please share. I want to hear everything. I may have a chance to have surgery because we will be meeting our deductible next month.

Eventually I'd like to do both but it's the left that causes actual prevention of activities through injuries.

Gail McDermott Hi, I have so many things to do within a 5 mile radius I’m 3 weeks out of surgery. Has anyone driven with your left foot?
