I am considering hammer toe surgery. My Dr. says he will cut the tendons on toe 2 thru 5. No bone removal. Dr. says I will not be able to curl/bend my toes after surgery. Recoup time is a week or two. Has anyone had this type of surgery? Is it new and/or what results??
Did you ever have the tendons cut? I had the full hammer toe surgery (joints destroyed, pins inserted) years ago, but now four of my toes are curled under again. I'm tired of being a flat-footed ballerina, so my new podiatrist is going to cut the tendons tomorrow afternoon. I'm sorry that I had the first surgery done, but I'm hoping that the new treatment will give me some relief.
How did it work with having the tendons cut? Did it help?
Are you happy with the last surgery you had? Cutting the tendons? I also want to do have it done but I am very scared
Hi I'm just wondering if you had the surgery. I'm scheduled next week.
