Hello. I am interested in foot reduction surgery because I have ginormous feet. They take up almost a whole square foot! It is getting hard to function and drive because they hit both pedals at one time! They also smell more than other people's feet so I would like to know if anyone has had this surgery. I think it would very much benefit and make my life much better because I would be normal. I cannot get a date because they think I am nice but then they look down and see....
them.
Please respond

You are kidding - right? IF IT AIN"T BROKE - DON"T FIX IT! FOOT SURGERY IS NOTHING TO MESS AROUND WITH. I KNOW, HAD BUNION SURGERY OVER A YEARS AGO AND HAVE TROUBLE WALKING. THANK THE GOOD LORD YOU CAN WALK, RUN WITHOUT PAIN!

I second, third and fourth that! You really do not want to do this. Even for those of us for whom foot surgery has turned out positive, you do not want to do that much curtting and healing on a foot that is not damaged. You will have more problems down the road than hitting both pedals on a car at the same time. If that's your worst issue, just pay more attention when you drive.

Perhaps you might want to get counseling to accept your body as it is. If it works, don't break it.

NO to surgery. there are too many things that can go wrong. just be glad you are able to use your feet without pain. no matter what size the feet are.....
