| Debating bunion surgery
I'm new to this board and have read some of the helpful threads about bunionectomys. My podiatrist fitted me with custom orthotics, but he said the small, irritating red bump I have will not go away and that I'd eventually need surgery. The pain comes and goes (and only lasts a short time). The Dr. said I'd be fitted with a walking boot and wouldn't need crutches and could probably return to work in less than 2 weeks. I run a lot and lift leg weights (or at least I did before I was diagnosed with this). If I got the surgery, would I be able to resume these activities? Thanks.
