corn
by fiestylch, Sep 29, 2009 10:39AM
I had a bone cut down because of this corn I have had all my life. Shoes hurt after an hr. they put a pin n so the toe would not get out of place. It had to be removed because I hit something and it bent. This has been seven weeks and it is much larger than the other toes. Makes me feel I will never be able to wear cute shoes. What can I do to get this toe small like it use to be.

have your doctor x-ray the toe to make sure you didn't hurt the bones.
if it is ok, have your doctor inject the area with cortisone to decrease the inflammation.
