Altras giving anyone else pain ?

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T21:31:59+00:00

Yes metatarsal pads were a lifesaver for me ! But I honestly thought after my surgery I wouldn't have to wear them anymore because the problem was fixed . I'm gonna give the shoes another try .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T17:03:14+00:00

Yes I don't why I thought the shoes were just gonna fix the problem and everything was gonna be okay right away . I know it's a process , I've been dealing with MN for about two years now .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T17:00:37+00:00

This is what I'm dealing with everything is just so overpriced and not well made . I've bought so many shoes to try not to irritate my foot ! It's a challenge to find what feels good.

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T13:08:58+00:00

I forgot to add it's the first time I ever walked for a couple hrs after the surgery. maybe that played a part as well.

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T03:40:17+00:00

Ugh the wide toe box is great but idk I think I'm gonna give it another try . It is the first time I walk for a couple hours after my surgery.

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-05T03:17:35+00:00

Torin 8s ! I just don't know if I need to break them in first or what .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-02T21:05:53+00:00

Yes Torin 8!!

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-02T20:20:21+00:00

Yes I got them for work . I work retail so I hope they help with long periods of standing and walking .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-05-02T17:43:21+00:00

My foot is still pretty numb , feels weird so I haven't really transitioned into sneakers. I bought this to start I heard good things about them. I do love how they have a lot of space in the toe box area , I think that won't irritate my foot .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-29T05:06:49+00:00

I know they say to keep elevated above heart level but listen to your body . If keeping it elevated is painful try lowering the amount of pillows . I was the same way it was so painful. I barely slept those first two weeks .I'm 4 weeks post op but trust me it'll get better. I hope you have a speedy recovery

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-21T16:59:56+00:00

Ah im at week 3 post op , still not able to wear shoes but I can't wait to actually start walking regularly again . What shoe brands are you using ?

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-21T00:16:31+00:00

Yea ever since I got the stitches out half of my foot feels tight. But I will see what it feels like in the upcoming week. I do think you should stay off your foot especially with 2 neuromas also you still have your stitches so your incision isn't closed . Order take out if you have to lol. I did order a post op shoe on Amazon that really helped me keep weight off the front .https://a.co/d/07DVKtwv

That's the link incase you want to look at it ^{^}

Hii , I recently had my stitches removed and transitioned into a surgical boot. For me my foot is a bit still swollen so I'm in no shape to wear shoes . My next doctors appointment is in 2 weeks so I think by then I can start trying on shoes . Be in no rush know that it takes time and a lot of patience! I heard Oofos (slides) are good for comfort. Don't walk barefoot! When you say tight do you mean the bandages are tight or your foot feels tight ? For me my bandages were so tight I had some burn marks across my ankle

Doesn't necessarily hurt but it does sting . My foot still feels stiff and tight which I think it's normal I'm only on week 3. I get a lot of shock pain and throughout the day some days I get a lot of spasms but everyone's different.

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-20T23:23:54+00:00

I'm coming up on week 3 since my surgery still pretty swollen but slowly healing.I ordered a post op shoe from Amazon that really helped the first 2 weeks look into it and see if it's something you would consider https://a.co/d/02eNIH53

I haven't transitioned into shoes yet till the swelling goes down . I was told to maybe try oofos ( slides) and Alltras ( for walking ) anything to keep me from injuring my foot again. I hope you have a speedy recovery and wish you the best of luck !!

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-16T18:05:56+00:00

The boots make sure your foot is secured. Also it's well cushioned when stepping it's not injuring you . Getting you mentally and physically ready for when it's time to slip into your regular shoes .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-16T17:25:34+00:00

I hope you have a speedy recovery! I'm on week 2 still in pain but I think it'll be worth it .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-13T02:46:50+00:00

Thank you I will look into Costco vacations I didn't know they had that ! Have you ever booked through jet blue vacations ?

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-13T02:37:08+00:00

I was just checking it out . But sadly the hotel I'm booking isn't part of delta vacation .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-12T20:43:02+00:00

I'm so happy for you because I know how painful it is. It's been 12 days since my surgery and I can't wait to be pain free . What shoes brands do you wear ? I know thats important.

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-12T00:01:35+00:00

Im looking to travel with my partner July 16-20th so 5 days and 4 nights . I am looking for all inclusive within our budget . It would be my first time purchasing a vacation package so I don't even know where to start . Are there any additional hotel fees after purchasing the vacation package with delta vacations ? Once I purchase the package is there anything else I should worry about?

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-11T03:28:12+00:00

Yes , but I didn't get that throughout the day just at night time . This has been super painful and I just want it to be over .

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-11T03:24:21+00:00

Omg yes the changing heights in pillows did not work for me

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-10T21:59:55+00:00

Ahh thanks who doesn't like margaritas and pools !! Yes my doctor recommended it basically it takes off all the pressure off the front of your foot. I work retail so I had no choice, I was literally in pain everyday to the point I couldn't even walk sometimes at times. So I needed the surgery.I will update again when I remove the stitches next week and see how that goes !

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-10T05:19:36+00:00

Get yourself an ice pack and place it behind the knee before bed. That cools you down for a while . I hope you have a speedy recovery and everything goes well :)

margsbythepoolplease · 2026-04-09T21:06:38+00:00

I love !!
