Pain after Bunion Removal Safety Harbor FL

My doctor had said that sometimes they do come back, but two years isn't a very long time for them to have returned, in my opinion. I have since moved so I won't be going back to the doctor.

Bunion Safety Harbor FL

I've had a bunion on my right foot (photo attached) that first became noticeable when I was in high school (ran track and cross country but noticed bunion in pointy shoes).

Hard Callus with White Core in Center Safety Harbor FL

The white spot in the center is one of two things.
