hi everyone

I will be going to a podiatrist for the first time next week, I think I have bunions the big toes on both my feet are swollen and stick out, its very painful. I am pretty nervous about going since I have never been to one before. I was wondering If you guys could tell me what to expect and what he will probably do? Thank you

Kathy

Don't worry or be afraid, there is nothing to it! He will just check your feet, maybe take xrays, look at the way you walk. It really is no big deal. Cheer up... you may just get some relief & find out what the problem is.

Hi Kathy

I guess you have had your appointment now? what was the verdict and what does he suggest for you?

I bet it was not that scarey?
