Sounds to me like Hammer toe.. And yes if its bad enough you will need surgery. It will keep getting worse if untreated.

From working in this field I would suggest you see a Orthopedic Surgeon who specializes in foot and ankle surgery.

DO NOT GO SEE A PODIATRIST!

Glad to hear. Im sure there are some good Podies out there but I just havent met any. Haha

One of my best docs is a podie. He orders a lot of bone growth stimulators cause he phucks up so many surgeries:142smilie

Well, here's my toe......warning, it's nasty. Googled hammer toe and images. It's like they took a pick of my foot except mine's a little sexier than this....

Thanks Gibber. I'll have to wait until the Fall. I'll shoot for November.

OS for sure. I would have called a podiatrist for sure so I really appreciate it!

surgery sounds painful and horrible, and it does hurt, but people recover pretty fast from it. Sometimes, they leave the pin sticking out the front of the toe and put a little type of stopper on it so it doesn't poke or get caught on stuff :scared I've never seen one of those exposed pins in my life without having a sort of shooting chill go through my entire body. Really bothers me for some reason! :scared

Christmas break, sounds like a great time to take off work, recover, be with the kids while they are out of school, watch all the bowl games, and have this surgery done. I would definitely plan to take off a few weeks with sick time and coordinate the surgery around a good time to be off. :)

Dude??

WWPD, what would Ponch do? Ponch would probably cut it off knowing he has 9 other toes. Suck it up, and that is toe is a clear advantage bowling, I want pins now, no pun intended.

I think I'm going to start hating the word "pins"!

"Left another "10-PIN".

Toe is killing me B. Gotta mow all summer yet.

I'm a limpin' fool after mowing all day.


WWPD, I like that.
