recent MN surgery to remove 2 nerves
by: Star on Tue, Sep 02 2008

I had surgery Aug 15th to remove 2 nerves that have been causing me problems for over a year. My foot feels much better already! My toes are still pretty swollen as well as black and blue, but are getting better daily. The bottom of my foot swells some when I walk too much. I had 3 steroid shots over the last year and tried active release therapy with a chiropractor I didn’t get any real relief from that at all. I only took a few doses of pain meds after surgery and was fine from there on. Don’t be scared of surgery as it can work!
