Hello! For me, the bunion surgery worked well actually. There was complete loss of pain after the surgery and increase in my physical activity. Nothing went wrong, so I can say I was lucky!!!! I would recommend it to others!
I had bunion surgery almost 10 years ago and it was one of the worst decisions of my life. To this day, I have a numb big toe, foot swelling, ankle swelling and swelling all the way up to my knee, which I am now having problems with. Doctors only suggest more surgery, which I refuse.
To anyone considering a bunionectomy, please don't do it. You'll regret it.

I had bunion surgery 9mths ago and still can't walk on left foot. Have RSD. I am worse than before. I totally regret having it done and can't stop blaming myself. I am still in physical therapy, under 2nd Dr care. Now having other problems from the surgery. Since not walking correctly, my legs and back are out of wack! A total mess. Medical bills are not being covered by insurance any longer and I sure can't afford to pay more. If you can do something else, consider it first before having the surgery. It is not worth it believe me.

Hi Ande and original asker!
I too had a bunion on my left foot surgery 12/2005 and it went all wrong. I too got RSD/CRPS1 and are still suffering from multiple pains and taking strong medication. Also, the surgery itself was not a success, the problem has recurred and it is even worse than originally. So, mr. Murphy has moved to our house that same day (=Murphy´s law, you know) and haven´t moved away since...
If you do, I wish you luck!

What is RSD? I noticed this mentioned as a complication for the bunionectomy. What are the symptoms.
Currently recovering from a surgery on one foot and still unable to walk on it at 3 weeks out. Hobbling on the foot causes much pain and increased swelling so far. Normal?

I agree with you, had surgery 4-05 in Montana. Big toe numb, the bunion is worse than it was! Now the toe next to the big toe leans sideways too as there is not enought room for all them. DO NOT DO IT ! Not worth the pain and risk of bacterial infection. Leave it alone and consider yourself Lucky!
