I'm 61 years old and I've had OCD and severe depression all my life. I also have Colitis,IBS, and foot problems. I'm obsessing terribly about my bunions. Five different foot Doctors have given me five different opinions regarding inserts or surgery! I don't know who to trust anymore. Maria.

I feel for you. I am 65 and have severe arthritis and plantar fasciitis in both feet. I tried everything and they still hurt terribly. I can barely walk or stand anymore. I tried orthopedic custom made inserts and good feet inserts but helped for awhile and then pain again. I wish something could help your bunions. My friend uses bunion covers on his feet to help. I also have IBS and terrible Incontinence. I started taking probiotics for the IBS which seems to help. I also started Azo for the incontinence.

@marieajean03 Welcome toconnect I had a bunion removal The surgery went well and I was home the same day . It was a simple procedure at a outpatient clinic l Dr did a great job and the follow up care was also good . Make sure someone is with you to drive going and back
