It's only been about 5 days post op...but... I miss walking!! 😭🥺😂 That being said, even though I still lumber like Frankenstein after a few beers at the pub, I think I'm moving in the right direction. Gentle activity was ALWAYS going to be a part of my plan, so I've been able to find some seated upper‑body workouts (using lightweight) and attempt core exercises — nothing too crazy, but enough to raise the heart rate. I mentioned before that I've increased vitamin D & K2 but still take my regular multivitamin, fish oil, turmeric, protein shakes with a sprinkling of creatine. So far, I haven't needed to use any pain relief, but I'm trying to stay as hydrated as possible. But in case I haven't said it already... I miss walking. So, to celebrate my upcoming one‑week MIS bunion surgery anniversary (🎊🥳🎉), I've found a nice new boot (arriving tomorrow) that I'll use to explore the outside world again... hopefully next week? But I'll be listening to my body like it was a Whitney Houston album and will not push too hard or too fast...but anyone who could share how they started the process of walking it would be greatly appreciated. Take good care of yourselves, my friends. It's only been about 5 days post op...but... I miss walking!!

He also offers either metal or the ossio screws which essentially absorb as your bone grows. Any experience with ossio? Thank you!! Shared post Elisa Muniz 4 1/2 months post op - my scars thickened a bit. They suggested Aquaphor and massage. Anyone else have other suggestions? Shared post Luanne LaGuardia Kozak To those that already had the surgery, were you elevating the foot at night while you slept as well? Shared post Sheri Galens A lot of people have been mentioning nerve pain. I actually was diagnosed with ne A lot of people have been mentioning nerve pain. I actually was diagnosed with neuropathy in both feet prior to my surgery. I have been using these two products on the bottom of my feet for some weeks and i definitely noticed a difference.
