I had a bunionectomy and osteotomy(where they had to cut the bone also because mine was so bad). i have to be on crutches with a cast for up to 8 weeks. It's been almost 4 weeks now and I've noticed that my toe nails are not growing back. Does anyone know why? Does it have something to do with the healing process? I still have 3 pins in my foot. I'm just starting to get a little nervous.Any feedback would be great!!!
