Feet are important! After all, we need them to stand and move around. About two years ago I started getting pain around the articulation of my right big toe. It became unbearable to wear shoes and the site would get angry and swollen. My problem got worse over time; at home I could go barefoot, but outside I had to wear shoes or boots, especially in winter. Anyway, enough was enough so, nearly in tears, I went to my GP who diagnosed an Exostosis or bony growth on the top of my big toe at the articulation. I had an X-Ray and was referred to Mr Adam Ajis. He straight away identified the problem and was happy to proceed with the operation. All very straightforward; I chose to have a local anaesthetic (quicker recovery) and Mr Ajis did a keyhole procedure to remove the growing bone, finishing with 3 very fine sutures. I was in the hospital for the morning only and I was well looked after. The postoperative pain was minimal, well controlled by a few Ibuprofen. I stayed home for a week and then a week later had the sutures removed. A month on and I can wear normal shoes again and the best part, I’m pain free. I would recommend this sort of procedure to anyone as it has changed my life. Mr Ajis knows what he is doing and does it very well. Thank you to a great surgeon.
