I had a bunionectomy Sept.

Archive date 2 archived replies

I had a bunionectomy Sept. 18 2018. Well I started wearing my old boot about a week ago cause I have an infected ingrown toenail and it hurts to wear regular shoes. I noticed today that it was hurting SO BAD. So I looked at my foot and noticed 3 blister type bumps on the incision. It hurts to even walk barefooted. They're like blisters but hard. Has anyone experienced this?

Sometimes blisters like that can form with the wrong rubbing. However, I feel your pain with the ingrown toenail! I think that pain was worse than my bunion ever was!! It was so infected and unbearable I couldn’t wait the week to see my podiatrist so I went to urgent care, and started antibiotics. It was fine after a few days on them (obviously still got it removed at my appointment though).

I've been on antibiotics for 2 weeks! My body rejects alot of stuff. I have an appointment Monday to get a procedure done to my toenail. I'm scared cause that numbing shot hurts soooo bad
