Hi, I am a black female, late 20’s who has been living with this disformity since I was 12 years old. It;s presence is well known on my left and right foot,4th toes.

I was hoping that I could get some info on recovery...Read the full article

Dear Ms. S.,
I also a female in her 20s that has the condition but I believe I have it on two of my toes, on my left foot (big toe and fourth metatarsal). I have done some research on brachymetatarsia. I haven't done the procedure yet but I found a website with plenty of testimony of people who have. Visit www.leepodiatry.com/brachymetatarsia.

Just out of curiousity, where are you getting your bone graft done?
