There are two major types of bunion surgery, including soft tissue surgery and osteotomy orthopedic surgery. The specific time to wear shoes after bunion surgery is as follows: 1. For simple soft tissue surgery, you can actually get off the ground and bear weight 2-3 days after surgery, and you can wear loose slippers for 2-3 days, and you can wear normal shoes after two weeks, and slowly exercise normal walking; 2. For osteotomy orthopedic surgery, you have to start doing weightless training after surgery, and wear very Loose shoes, soft shoes. If there is a built-in object or steel nail, you can start weight training slowly after one month, then you can wear loose shoes, and after 6-8 weeks you can change to normal shoes and practice normal walking. How long you can wear shoes after bunion surgery depends on the case. If it is a soft tissue surgery, you can usually wear shoes and walk normally in about two weeks. If there is an osteotomy, shoes can be worn after one month and normal weight bearing walking will depend on the specific situation.
