I am a 40 yr. old woman and I have longer toes on my feet as well. I also have large size feet and have had them all through my younger years up to now. I am never able to find open toe shoes that looks good on me because of it. My toes are extremly fat like sausages. What a sight for sore eyes. My toes are always bunched up in shoes. My shoes size is a 12. My questions are: Can shortening your toes change your shoe size, Is there a procedure to make your feet smaller? If so, how much is the procedure and how long is the recovery time? PLEASE HELP?

i live in dubai. Do you have a clinic in dubai as well.?

My name is Lindsay and I have been struggling with the look of my feet ever since I was little! My second toe is quite a bit longer than the first and I hate not being able to wear all the cute designer shoes! I was just wondering the price, recovery, and any adverse effects from the procedure (will my feet ache in the future…etc.). Also, can you get both feet done at the same time? I live in Alberta Canada so I would want to fly down and have it done all at once.

Thanks!

I am a 42 year old female and have recently undergone a hammer toe correction procedure (Sept 09). The procedure being a PIP joint fusion of right 2nd toe with Weil’s osteotomy and extensor tenotomy, which I feel unfortunately hasn’t settled down as much as I would have liked. I have been left with a floating toe, which is extremely uncomfortable when walking as I can feel the pull along the top of my foot and I am now walking with a limp that I never had before. My toe appears only slightly shorter than the others when my foot is off the floor, but on weightbearing or putting my foot to the floor, the toe retracts back, appears shorter and is left floating. I’m unsure as to the reason for this, but am worried that the Weil’s osteotomy has been too aggressive and the bone in the top of my foot shortened too much. I am due to go back to the hospital but am reluctant to allow any further surgery as I have little faith in the sugeon who performed the original op. Would I be a suitable candidate for toe-lengthening? I live in the UK so it would be helpful if you could give me an idea of the costs involved for this procedure and the length of recovery time.

Many thanks, Paula Griffiths.

I had a bunion surgery nine years ago on my left foot. My foot was never heal completely and was always sore at the ball of the foot. Last September an orthopedic surgeon removes tibial sesamoid to relieve the pain. I wear an orthopedic support all the time. I enjoy ballroom dancing but took off from practicing for 4 months because the pain was quite severe when I put the weight on that foot. Now the pain is getting to be too much even 1 hour of practice. My foot can be sore for 2 or 3 days. I had juvaderm injection in February but it only last 3 months and it took almost 2 months after the injection to heal up. I can not walk barefoot longer than 30 minutes at home before the pain get worse.

Ballroom dancing is what keep me healthy. My over all health is so much better now since I started dancing. I do not want to give that up. I am 54 years old female.

My question is. Is the fat injection procedure is right for me and what does involve in this procedure? I would appreciate any information you may have.

Sincerely,
Ood Stalcup

Thanks.
