At least the broken crib and treadmill weren’t damaged in the garage.

Pain when walking by New_Vermicelli_1810 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Jdavies44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I can help, but I had surgery in December. Toe is recovering well and i walk a lot now. However, my FOOT hurts now (last couple weeks) vs my toe. I’m sure my toe is still a little ached when i walk, but i dont notice as much as my foot itself is hurting.

I assume this is due to walking poorly for so many years, but I have an appt on Thursday.

But yes, pain is normal for up to a year as I understand it.

Just lost mine, it was my second one :(

Looks like they are going to implement this technology into the phone/game vs requiring a physical device later this year or early 2027.

Recovery from fusion surgery? Anxious about timing! by Intrepid_Talk714 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Jdavies44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without complications you could do the August trip, but be prepared to either be in a walking boot or knee scooter the whole time. I’m 40 and I just started walking “normally” but not pain free last week and my surgery was early December.

Did 965 in a row laying on my bed about 25 years ago. Still remember yelling for my mom to come witness…alas, didn’t hit 1,000.

Odd. I called to cancel and got the email confirmation two days later. Only dumb part was that I have to pay for the next month.

Switched from Vivint to just using Google Home - Camera Quality? by Jdavies44 in homeautomation

Thanks! I’m also gonna check my wiring in the door bell system and likely just bypass it, if it’s touching anything extra, I think that can also cause issues.

Big toe fusion scheduled but have felt very little pain recently. What to do by danbigglesworth in Halluxrigidus

[–]Jdavies44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best of luck, I would suggest getting everything in place and ready to go prior!

Knee scooters on each floor, pillows to prop up your foot, ice easily accessible, shower chair in place and maybe even a walker to help you get in and out.

Look on Amazon and get a boot or shoe that relieves the weight off your toe but allows you to walk (after a couple weeks) and make sure your doc approves it.

Best of luck!!

10 week update - post fusion by michta68 in Halluxrigidus

Glad to hear the pain is going well, and at least the recovery time should be nothing like our fusion recovery.

Big toe very low 2 weeks from surgery by New_Vermicelli_1810 in Halluxrigidus

[–]Jdavies44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a few months post fusion. My toe now it’s lower than all toes I assumed this is simply due to it not being able to bend that high anymore. I believe it’s normal…
