I just had surgery 2 days ago and I have to keep the pins in for 6 weeks. How long after your pin was out in turn the pain subside even a little?

I had both big toes pinned due to arthritis several years ago. I was given to understand before surgery I would never be able to bend my big toes again due to the 5 screws which keep the bones rigid. This means that I am no longer able to wear heeled shoes ( a huge sacrifice!) but I no longer suffer with the constant pain of arthritic toes.

I had hammer toe surgery 3 1/2 weeks ago. I think the end of the pin extending out of my toe bent yesterday. Has anyone had that problem and what were the consequences? My doctor warned me of bending the pin.

I had a hammer toe procedure a month ago. I was wondering will I have my pins out to travel the next month? Also, will I be able to travel without the aid of crutches?

I had toe surgery with a pin a few weeks ago. Today, the pin looks as if it has pushed out and I have an odor on my foot. Is this bad?

Three weeks post-surgery, the toe was black, swollen, and oozing. Went on antibiotics, for two more weeks, and the toe was still swollen and black. The doctor had to remove the implant and a pin in it. Why did this happen?

Thank you so much. NO one even told me I had to have the pin removed! Do they numb it?
