Crushed foot injury

(2 discussions)

8 months ago I was hit head-on by a drunk drive.My left foot suffered crushed metatarsals and cuboid. I was in a cast for 8 weeks and a walking boot for 2 months.
Now I have a brace the fits in my shoe and straps below my knee.
I also have nerve damage and have had 2 nerve block shots.
I have been in pain for 8 months, my foot Dr says I will be in pain for a long time and there is nothing more that can be done.
Should I get a second opinion?

    I recommend you see a pain specialist for further evaluation.
