Halux - Doctor advice
I am 5 months post halux surgery. My foot is still swollen, I don't wear any shoes only cycling shoes and my foot still hurts. I don't want to walk the rest of my life in only cycling shoes. I went to rehab for 3 months after surgery. What can I do and can my foot still be fixed so that I can still wear smart shoes? Because of the "botched surgery" I can't find a job. The job I used to do requires smart clothes. Thank you for your reply.

In orthopedics, we often see defects related to flat feet. Its consequences are just the articular deformities of the big toe - halux vagus, hammer toes and drains. After surgery for orthopaedic defects, it is always necessary to follow up with orthopaedic footwear and proper foot care.
Biostimul will serve you very well in the post-operative care of a swollen and painful foot. Biostimul applications promote proper circulation of blood and lymph, helping fluid to drain from the area of swelling. This acts to reduce swelling and reduce uncomfortable pressure in the area. At the same time, the action of polarized light accelerates healing processes, cell and whole tissue regeneration. Thus, regular applications of Biostimulus promote proper, efficient and rapid tissue regeneration and, together with this, suppress inflammatory processes. The analgesic effect of Biostimul is also very important and welcome for you. Biostimul acts to reduce the sensitivity of nerve cells and thus suppresses pain. It is possible that after the first applications you will feel the pain slightly increased. However, there is nothing to worry about, it is just the body's natural reaction to the therapy and this reaction tells you about its correct response.
I recommend applying Biostimul topically to the swollen and sore area. Apply 2-3 times a day for 10 minutes. For at least the first 10 applications, do only in continuous mode, then if the leg is no longer painful, switch to pulsating mode.
