"Thanks for your web site. I often self medicate
since I have no insurance and an extremely high IQ. I always research
and I have severe big toe joint pain so badim on/ off crutches and didnt
know why except it was related to and ankle sprain this time since I
walked on my toe for a week that foot only has killed me with pain and
ankle healed up after a week. Usually both are affected after working on
my toes ( i'm a plumber & general contractor) or wearing new or
different shoes. This website was great I know beyond any doubt what's
wrong with me and pretty sure at what stage im at. Ill consult my
doctor- brother in law is a doctor and see what all my options are.
Thanks for so much info being posted! "
Bobby 2-13-10"I was diagnosed
with PTTD in 2006 and wore a Richie Brace for over a year which really
helped the pain. I began using the brace prn until 1/2010 and now I am
in extreme pain, so much that it is hard to bear any weight on my right
foot. I saw the orthopedic surgeon last week and he feels that I need a
better brace and I was measured and a cast made for the brace last week.
In the meantime, I continue to wear the Richie Brace, but now the foot
is swollen and is hard to use. I understand that surgery has a long
recovery and not always successful. Is the brace the best thing to wear
and realizing that at 78 years of age, this problem is not going away,
what more can be done. Your site is great, easy to understand and very
helpful. Thank you."
