Plantar Plate Repair

This video shows the Arthrex system for repair of a plantar plate tear. Injury to the plantar plate can occur with chronic capsulitis of the 2nd metatarsal phalangeal joint. A plantar plate tear will typically cause pain under the joint as well as a worsening hammertoe formation of the 2nd toe. If you have pain under your 2nd toe, it is important for us to see you as a patient to assess the cause. Early treatment of this pain can prevent a plantar plate tear. The doctors at Council Bluffs Foot & Ankle Care are experts in the treatment of this condition. Call us at 712-328-0297 or visit our website www.cbfootcare.com to learn more.

I had this done from the bottom of my foot to repair 2 toes last May and it's been the best thing. This Thursday I'm having this exact surgery done to repair my second row from the top

How long after the surgery before you could walk again?

[@SalinasAshley]

@@sgbutsch the surgery from the bottom took about a year to feel normal. The one I had done from the top is 4 months post op and bending it is still difficult but other than that it feels good.

From the bottom I was zero weight bearing for 12 weeks and had to use a knee cart. The surgery I had from the top of my foot I walked out of the hospital in a walking boot the same day of the surgery.

@@SalinasAshley could you walk? How many days after the last surgery?

Did it work?
I’m having it done from the top and was wondering if it actually works long time.
