Having a long toe might seem like no big deal at first glance, but it can actually bring a fair share of challenges. Imagine your toe constantly hitting the front of your shoe – ouch, right? This can lead to all sorts of discomfort, especially when you’re wearing closed shoes or trying to be active.
You should wear comfortable shoes for this time.
If you wear close-toed shoes, it is recommended to cover the incision with a bandaid to prevent any irritation, but it should be avoided
You may transition into using scar cream on the incision and silicone scar sheets to cover it when wearing shoes or being exposed to the sun. You may also wear sunscreen on the incision since sun exposure can cause hyperpigmentation.
