What exercises can I do after having bunion surgery?

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

Yesterday I went clothes shopping and ended up very depressed. I need to amp up my exercising and switch from diet pop to water. Hopefully that will help.

My big problem is I am having bunion surgery in a few weeks. I have an ellipitcal and love it but after having bunion surgery I will be unable to use it. What other things can I do during recovery for exercise? After my right foot is healed I will be having my left foot done.

Help! I like to jog but have bunion foot pain at times. What can I do to still jog but reduce pain?

I love jogging and walking - both treadmill and outdoors. I do have bunions but have not gotten surgery to correct. I have just worn comfortable shoes and there is little to no pain. But after I jog a few days in a row it starts up again. Anyone out there had similar problem or knowledge about foot health or shoes with ideas? Are there better shoes, brand names, supports? I would have to not be able to jog...:(

Thanks for your help.
