Hello, I to like many of you have had bunion surgery, the only thing different is that unfortunately I am still dealing with the swelling. I'm wearing compression socks daily which helps minimize while on, but when they come off, the swelling comes back. Went to the doctor and now they want to put on a cast, not sure if this is the right thing to do, or are they just trying to "band-aid" the real issue. I don't have a diagnosis for the swelling, which I think that's what should be done first. Is there anyone dealing with this issue???
