I had a bunionectomy almost 20 years ago. about a week ago, the bottom of my toe began hurting when i move it and walk on it. could it be the pin?

Look and See.: Not all bunionectomies are repaired with a pin. To be absolutely sure, have your foot x-rayed. it may or may not be the cause of your pain.
