Richard, the last operation was a triple arthrodesis at 13! The foot is pinned, and it was a result of a club foot! Hope that helps- and thanks for your help
I Used To Suffer But Not Anymore!
I began
searching for information on natural remedies, alternative
medicine, and anything I could find. I had actually tried
searching for this information years before, and found nothing
relevant. Then
one day I found a source of information that led to another
source, and so on. It was the break I had been looking for!
Despite having read over and over that arthritis was "incurable"
and that people with arthritis had to learn to live with
it for the rest of their lives, I found hope. Out of all
the informational sources I found, I learned that people
with arthritis had been curing themselves all these years! What
I learned was that there were four (4)
different methods that were used to cure arthritis. Each
source mentioned only one method, though. Some gave importance
to one method and briefly mentioned some of the others.
What I also learned was that some people got relief by using
one method more than another. So what
I did was combine ALL 4 methods into one
program , and by applying just one
of the initial methods, I
became totally pain-free in 3 days!
England, with this problem I would recommend that you do such activities as swimming, walking in water, slow movements such as yoga, riding a bike that has snap in cleats, or walking. The important part is to keep on moving and not to allow the feet to become stiff. You don’t state what the operations were but it might also benefit you to get custom made orthotics from a podiatrist as these will help to keep the feet in what is called an anatomical neutral position. This posture will decrease the stress on the bones of the feet.
