I had hammertoe surgery 8 wks ago, 2nd, 3rd ,4th toe. pins out at 4 wks. when can i expect to walk comfortable without pain? still very painful.

Outdated : pins to hammer toes is an outdated technique. Why did you have that. It take long time to heal with pins vs implant ie stayfuse implant. Usually 6 weeks non weight bearing with pins. And 3 weeks non weight bearing with implant

Be Patient.: Hammer toe surgery, although a relatively easy surgery to perform, varies greatly in post operative recovery. Some of this is based on technique, but not all. Your body's ability to heal is the major contributing factor. There is really no way of predicting which patient will heal without some residual swelling and pain, especially in terms of time. Best to ask your surgeon for his recommendation.

YOU SHOULD NOT: BE HAVING PAIN 2 MONTHS AFTER SURGERY. IS THERE SWELLING? DID SOMETHING NOT HEAL CORRECTLY? WHAT DID YOUR DOCTOR TELL YOU? HAVE YOU BUMPED THE FOOT?

SURGERY: At 8 weeks , there still may be pain, but it shouldn't be VERY painful. On a scale of 0-10, 10 worst, how painful is it? Getting better or worse? Did you have digital fusions?-an xray may be helpful.
