Shoe recommdations after big toe fusion

Daisy15

I have recently come through 2 big toe fusion ops. Feet still sore, first done early December, second early February. Still struggling and foot sore. I've bought some Knixmax canvas shoes which are not too bad but think I could have done with my usual size 4 instead of the size 5s. Anyhow, any help on brands and sizes welcome. It's so hard with the massive online choice.

Hello @Daisy,

Sorry to hear that you are having a tough time after your ops. While I can't first handily recommend footwear, I have found this article from a podiatrist on what footwear is best when experiencing pain. I hope this is useful to you and please let us know if you have any questions.

Olivia :)
