I need to have three hammertoes fixed.

Answered by a doctor

I need to have three hammertoes fixed. I would like to know others experiences with this. I am 65 but in excellent health. I don't do narcotics so I hope that Ibprofen will be okay. I would like to know if it is worth it. I also have one leg that is shorter due to a car accident.
