I Had Surgery For Morton's Neuroma - Best Decision!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- I've been out of action due to a recent foot operation to remove something called Morton's Neuroma which is a bening tumour that grows on the nerve in between the 3rd and 4th toe. So instead of the usual action-packed adventure, thought I'd take the opportunity to answer some of your questions....whilst doing the chores. Very riveting indeed!

OMG OMG Nicole! You’re engaged?! How did I miss this? The best and kindest of congrats to you two!! I have been following you since before your channel and I am just so happy for you!! Love your love for Canada, we love you too! 🥰 And cheers to your future 🥂
Aaaah, thank you so much 🥳 I’m engaged...woohoo! There is actually a video on my channel of how it went down, but I couldn’t be happier! Thanks for your well wishes and hopefully I’ll back in Canada sometime soon ❤️
The sign of a true communicator, creative, .. is to make the mundane like cleaning and questions interesting.... the true life of a 'social influencer' (hate that phrase) is more important than the 'Instagram' esq imagery that many people rely on. another vlog with passion and honesty. I can only imagine the amount of effort you put into these. Nicole keep being you and like so many I hope your foot heals.
Here’s to your speedy and healthy recovery, love what you do and your videos
Thank you so much! Since filming this video a couple of days ago, I’m already back to walking normally which is awesome 😀
I so feel you with the healthy body, you don't realize that until something hits you and you can't do stuff anymore. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Exactly, we take our working bodies for granted every day of our lives. Really happy to be back on my feet & walking normally again 🙌🏼
Your channel is the only one I know that can have over a thousand views on a video without a single thumbs down. Everyone stans you.
Hope you feel better soon and the foot heals quickly. Always good to watch your material (even when you are doing the laundry!) Take care and stay safe 😎👍🇬🇧Tim
Canada and South African as most beautiful countries! Couldn’t agree more! Haven’t been to India so my third spot would be Brazil 😍
Brazil would be amazing as well, wow! I need to try and get to South America sometime :)
Speedy recovery Nicole and all the best. No negative comments which is fantastic and a testament to the quality of the cinematography and storylines on your vlogs! Keep up the great work! How is your tourist agency coming along especially in light of the current situation?
Really loving your video so far ! It is so chilled and relaxed. Definitely what I needed now since we are going back into lockdown in my country. Love your work 🌻
Oh no, it seems much of the world is closing in on Lockdown #2. Hope that you’re staying safe & thanks for watching :)
Aaaaaaaaaaaa, how I miss the world too! Feel better soon, Nicole. Got a lot of adventures for us who can't yet get outside :( this whole blip has just given me drive to be in all the places, and my insides are roaring already!
Nice having an update Nicole, hope you heal quickly !
Thanks so much Steve - I’m already feeling so much better & fully back on my foot during the past couple of days.
@@NicoleEddy1 that's goods news then, look forward to some new vlogs soon !
But the waves,I live with CRPS in my right foot .crazy painful so I’m glad your on the mend.
Glad you are on the mend!
Thanks Harvey & already feeling SO much stronger in the past couple of days 💪🏼
Stoked to see you healing up and putting out so much positivity during your physical challenge Nic!😎🤙🏼
Hope you get well soon. That foot looks very bruised and blue. Hope u feel better soon. Xxx love to Blair
Rather use micropore tape rather than bio-oil. My surgeon (kidney transplant) explained that the oil is not effective and that the tape helps to reduce tension on the skin and helps the scar to heal. Good luck with the healing process :)
Having the same issue with my foot and I decided I could no longer live with the pain. I am scheduled for surgery may 7. I can’t wait to start wearing normal shoes
Oh no, I know how terrible it feels. So looking on the bright side, it's been about 6 months since I had the op and it was the best decision ever. I can wear all of my shoes again without any pain at all & the recovery time was really quick. Good luck for the surgery :)
@@NicoleEddy1 I was scheduled last year but because of covid in Canada they cancelled my appointment. They then rebooked for March but because of ice and snow i didn’t want to deal with crutches and the possibility of falling so I choose to move it to may. I can’t wait to have a Normal foot without pain. I am so glad to hear you are doing great and there is hope in my horizon. By the way love your vlog. I love watching my most favourite country to visit. I truly feel at home when I land.
@@debstockdale3270 Hey Deb, how are you doing? Did the surgery help?
@@halcyon-cg2eb yes it did. You have numbness in some toes but overall would do it again
@@debstockdale3270 I am happy to hear that it was a success for you! Thanks for answering my question. Be well : )
Hey Nicole,
congrats on the engagement, and good luck with your foot! If you haven't visited Malta I'm told it makes a kick ass honeymoon spot! Always assuming Covid gets reigned in! If you guys manage to swing by here there some fantastic dive spots i can show you! Keep up the great Vlog, really enjoyed the new defender ones, my 2007 90 is going to have to hang on a bit longer till they hit the 2nd hand market at a decent price!
Loving the creativity Nicole. I'm so excited to see more in 2021.
soo happy to see you back and moving about! Wishing you a speedy recovery :)
Great video. Hope your foot gets better soon
Honestly , I would have stayed with the six toes . Really hope that you are OK . When you are feeling a little more yourself , you might like to take the Ruta Austral in Southern Chile and visit Las Cuervas de Marmol . I was two days outside of the lockdown when I hoped to do that trip . Very very beautiful , not so tough but something Toyota or Landrover may sponsor and ( I apologise for being presumptious ) , something you may find wonderful . Take great care .
I enjoy seeing you / Blair in any capacity
Thank you so much 🙏🏼
you're welcome 😁
After seeing those Land Rover Defender vlog series really pumped about seeing the car in Person...it’s just been launched in India .. also you hope recover full soon and all the best to you guys ✌🏽💯
Amazing! Now that they’ve been launched in SA, we’ve been seeing them quite frequently on the roads. Makes me miss driving it! Thanks so much for the awesome comment 🙏🏼
😳 Wow I’m going through the same situation I thank I might have to go for surgery too but I’m scared to have the
Surgery
I’m sorry I hope you get well soon. I’m going through the same situation I’m thanking of taking the injection did you tried the injection I don’t know if I should they say is painful when you take the injection I might just go for the surgery and get it over with. Hope you get better soon thank you.
I had one removed. I kept feeling a pop in my foot. It was very uncomfortable. The burning (nerve pain) was terrible the day of surgery. It’s where two nerves fuse together and a tumor (like a marble) forms between them.
Oh no! How are you feeling post-operation? I think it was one of the best decisions that I've made to get it removed.
What was your recovery period? When can I expect to be running again?
So sorry about your foot. Having a "walking impairment" myself, know how much this can restrict a person. Good if it is only temporary. It isn't in my case.
Thanks Daniel and definitely glad that it's temporary so I am very lucky indeed, and sorry to hear that your walking impairment is long-term, and a reminder for me to not take my body for granted going forward. x
Hi, Nicole! Have you ever thought of coming to South America?
I absolutely loooooove your content, been loving it for years :)
Cheers from Argentina :D
I would absolutely love to, there's definitely many adventures to be had there :) Thanks so much for all of the support!
Love the video! Can’t wait to be allowed back to SA😃
Here’s to hoping that 2021 brings us all many amazing travel adventures!
Just had surgery on my right foot, two days ago. How was your recovery and how is it now. It’s had me down and out for a year now.😊
I was anxious to know what this was about... but then I watched, and it's not "that" :-)
...
Ouuuuch! Hope your Foot Heals quickly!
Feel better soon Nicole!! 💞🥰❤️ Come by and say hello if you get a chance, we'd love to share what we've been up to 😊❤️
Gangsta limp LOL Get well soon Nicole! I like this laid back style of video :)
Is Africa Unearthed have opportunites for Zambia. Looking for a 10 day trip to Kafue July - October 2021. Let me know.
Fun video format :)
Hello we hope all is well with you? We are so sorry we have not been over for a while but we have been extremely busy and we got stuck out in Malta so now we are playing catch up with everyone. We ask your forgiveness for taking so long to reconnect. Love and Light Sarah and Glenn
Your injury did not affect your creative talents as seen here. Here's to quick healing.
I’m so glad, haha! I wasn’t too sure how weird this video would turn out, so I’m glad that some creativity came through during the boredom at home 😅
Hello Nicola, I am due or thinking of having this done. What’s it like? How long was you on crutches for? I am having this done awake any thoughts please
Tanta acqua salata e sole e la ferita guarisce
😊
How's it going 3 years later?
best decision ever! My foot is 100% back to normal & completely pain-free.
Canada blew my brains as well. Did you visit the Rocky Mountains between BC and AB, Banff etc?
Exactly the spot! It was also the first time I saw proper snow and tried snowboarding, so there’s so many fond memories tied into that trip.
The first time we did Calgary & Banff & the second time we did Toronto which I also really loved as a city 👌🏼 Such an epic country!
@@NicoleEddy1 That's awesome! I saw snow in Lesotho prior to that, but Canada's snow is so much more fuffy. Calgary is currently my favourite city in the world, spent a few months there at the University of Calgary during fall/winter.
That's awesome, Toronto sounds like fun.
I saw you've also been to Shanghai. What an amazing city hay. Massive buildings. Was my first trip outside SA, blew my mind.
Hope you went to Beijing to walk the Great Wall while you were there.
Your content is amazing btw. You make SA seems like a foreign country. I'm so scared to do what you do, given the crime stats, but you've given me new eyes to see that there's so much to do and see here.
@@darrenjantjies9027 Ah amazing, but I agree, I think Canada is incomparable to Lesotho, which is actually a country that I've still never been to funnily enough! Shanghai was also so incredible, I didn't think that I would enjoy it much what with the crowds, foreign foods and extreme city life but actually thoroughly enjoyed my time there & would be excited to go back and visit again!
@@NicoleEddy1 Haha😂, yeah same, China was not on my bucketlist at all, but now I'm keen to go back. Thanks for the chat. Have a great week. Looking forward to your next video.
Hi Nicole..i had the same surgery last week..im just resting up..my foots swollen n a bit sore but hopefully its all good and works out well...how long we're you off your feet after surgery?? Best wishes..Rick
Hi Rick, could you please let me know how the surgery went, thx : )
@@halcyon-cg2eb surgery went ok i had that march 25th.foots a lot better than it was before the operation thats for sure..still get a little pain but was told it would take maybe a year before it would settle..im not in agony anymore so thats good..i put up with this for 8 years i tried everything so the operation was the last resort..Rick
@@rickharrison6325 Yay, that's great news! I am happy for you and hope that all will be well with your foot in the future. I will have my consultation with the foot surgeon in about a year (have been on a waiting list to see him for 3 years) and am looking for success stories like yours. Thanks for responding to my question : )
It’s looking I may need surgery and it’s killing me since I workout and run everyday. Pain has been unbearable for about a month. How long of a recovery period is it?
Hey Phil, honestly was one of the best decisions that I've made - not a pain in my foot ever since. I was walking again within 2 weeks, and running within a month. My surgeon was phenomenal as well which always helps!
@@NicoleEddy1 thank you so much Nicole...right not i just started alcohol injections as the cortisone did nothing. If this does work after a few treatments i will be headed for surgery. My neuroma is 21 mm...10 times the size of normal ones.
@@philzazzera7322 Hey Phil, did you go ahead with the surgery?
Hi Nicole.Please share the name of your doctor that did your neuroma surgery in CT?
Hey there, my orthopedic surgeon was Christoff Marais from Blaauberg Hospital - he was phenomenal.
@@NicoleEddy1 You're a star, tx!
❤️❤️❤️
How is your foot now? Can you run much?
Hey Sean! My foot is 100%…got back to running within about 1.5 months after surgery, I’ve been snowboarding since without so much of the slightest pain in my foot, but yeah, I’m doing all of the activities that I used to do completely pain-free…one of the best decisions I’ve made!
@@NicoleEddy1 thanks for replying Nicole I appreciate it. Have a good day
