Ok so I had the surgery on my right foot, did not have much of a turned toe but a lot of pain wearing certain shoes, mostly heals, so I decided to go for the surgery. 8 months later I am still in pain, I do not recommend this surgery unless you really really need it. The pain is deep inside my joint of the big toe, I am being told it could take up to a year, again if I had known this no way would I have done it. I have gone trough physical therapy and shots to help, but not much better.
So do not do the surgery unless it is so very necessary...good luck to anyone who goes ahead with it... long recovery!!!
