No pain. No problems. And no... memories of what it was like before the surgery!

  1. Curious to find out how your plantar flexion turned out. I’m finding this worse than before surgery. I’m hoping it’s due to the swelling I still have (6 weeks post). Thanks again for this valuable blog.

    1. no problems at all. Same as the other foot. I am 54 now - I can do whatever I like - run, jump, cycle, etc. It does not bother me at all.

      In my experience, 6 weeks after surgery is very early. If you read my blog carefully, you will see that the recovery took a while. I would say 3 months was the break even, and then it took up to 1 year to further improve.No hurry, make sure you do not damage it again.

  2. Yes, definitely planning on not pushing too hard for some time. And know that this is a gradual improvement process. Thanks for the quick response.

  3. Hi just wanted to know if you only got the cheilectomy or did you also get a metatarsal osteotomy? Thanks

    1. I cannot remember anyone mentioning the metatarsal, but who knows what they really did. I forgot that I ever had a problem with the foot.
