A member asked:

Can i walk in a normal shoe or is there another boot to wear after i have three pins removed from my toes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes if healed: If your doctor has told you that the toes are healed you should be able to wear comfortable shoes. If you are not sure of your healing status speak with the surgeon who performed the procedures.

I suspect I fractured my small toe 5 years ago, I feel pain when I walk barefoot on the bone underneath the toe and this causes me to shift my weight onto the other side of my foot. Problem is not as bad when I wear tackies or shoes ?
