Healing & recovery must-haves! I just finished my 3rd surger
Healing & recovery must-haves! I just finished my 3rd surgery on my feet, this time to remove hardware from one, and bone spurs and a neuroma removed from the other. Both had previous lapidus bunion removals with fusion, plus one had 2 toes shortened & the other had 2 hammertoes repaired. These 3 items have kept me much more pain free through all my surgeries, and have helped scarring immensely. For nerve pain, I take Alpha Lipoic Acid and Tumeric Curcumin daily. For scarring & bruising I start using Castor Oil right after stitches come out. They work wonders for me! If you are struggling, just know that it does get better and you will get your life back. Hang in there! Much love to everyone
