I had a bone growth on my foot that should not have been there

Posted by Remlik (aka remlik) Dec 28 '11, 12:48

made it impossible to walk without support. had to quit running and other cardio work.

Went to a foot guy and he took off that piece of bone.

Well about 8 weeks after that surgery my foot got infected...specifically the bone he worked on. so he took a small piece of it out.

Fine, no problems. just my foot was really sore and we hoped to avoid fusion surgery in the area. Well I'm not lucky so I have to have bone fusion in that area with a metal plate put in so I can walk/run and do things again...that's in two weeks

well this past Friday my foot started swelling up for some reason...got really bad ysterday when I woke up. went to doc and he put me on some antibiotics to see if it takes care of it. if it's not better by friday then I go for an MRI....

That really sucks. Hopefully the meds work and you won't need anything else until the final surgery. - Krusty Dec 28, 12:51 1
- thanks. it really sucks. I've had 3 cortisone shots there to ease pain and it just sucks. -- nm - Remlik Dec 28, 12:58
