Osteoarthritis in both feet

Mooncow

Hi,

I have non union of the 5th metatarsal and severe bunions caused by osteoarthritis and have been told that I need surgery on it . Has anyone else had this ?

Hello @Mooncow have a look at the following:

and

Hope some of it is useful

@Mooncow I did a quick search and found these threads about foot surgery

https://community.versusarthritis.org/search?query=foot%20surgery&scope=site&source=community

and this one specifically about 'metatarsal'

I hope you find something of use in those.

Best wishes
