Just About 5 Months Post Surgery

It's been awhile since I have posted anything and a lot has changed! I run everyday with no pain at all. The bottom of my foot doesn't have much of a scar. I can wear heels for about four or five hours until it gets a little sore. I no longer have to have the metal plate in my shoe, but I have to really be aware of when my shoes get old and worn down. I stopped taping my toe two months ago and it looks normal! The sesamoid bone helps keep your big toe straight and once the bone is removed, it is natural for the toe to go outwards. That is why you have to tape your toe for three months! I have gotten a lot of my balance back which I lost pretty quickly. 

I am so grateful that this surgery worked and I highly recommend it to anyone who is having sesamoid problems. The sesamoid is a real pain and it is an amazing feeling once that pain is gone forever.
