Hi everyone, I’m 5 weeks post-bunion surgery and I’ve been having trouble sleeping because of nerve pain and throbbing at night. Has anyone else experienced this after 5 weeks? What helped you feel better? Shared post Cassidy DeRego Hi everyone, I know many of you are familiar with my complicated history and my recent struggle with bone infection and ultimately having a big toe amputation about 4 weeks ago. Last year in November 2024, I had a revision triple arthrodesis among some other things. Because of complications and several additional surgeries due to bone infection, I have not walked on my foot much at all since that surgery about a year ago. I am currently 1 week into the transition to shoes after walking in the boot for 3 weeks before toe amputation surgery and 3 weeks after surgery. I am completely familiar with the pain that comes with the transition to shoes. I was wondering if others have had a sharp stabbing/pinching pain in the mid to lateral hindfoot/ankle while transitioning into shoes and it was normal and leveled out over time. I have the pain to a much lesser degree in the boot and it happens when I bend the foot and ankle during the push off phase of gait. I of course have other aches and pains that I know for sure are normal parts of the process. It is significant pain that makes walking difficult, especially right after rest and any prolonged WB and it is getting worse as I'm walking more. I will see my surgeon on the 28th and of course will discuss with him then. So far the infection is gone but since I have had nonunions in the past I worry that it could be happening again. I was just hoping others have had the same type of pain and went on to have a successful recovery. Attached are my x-rays. My entire midfoot and hindfoot is fused.

Shared post Linda Bernstein Hirsch Just had surgery done yesterday-nerve block so no pain as of now-but can’t get comfortable to sleep while keeping foot elevated on elevation pillow -i always sleep on my side and can’t seem to do it with the elevation pillow -any suggestions? Shared post Jennifer Spiers Hello from Chicago. Getting a lapiplasty (right foot) on Thursday (don’t mind Bob the tumor on my toe - his removal is another surgery). I’m a surgery pro (5 abdominal surgeries) but this one is making me so nervous. We don’t have a car. We walk everywhere. I asked for a knee scooter so I could get my kid to / from camp after the initial 11 days of keeping my foot up. Give me you best recovery tips! No photo description available. Shared post
