diet after bunion surgery
I just had a bunion removed and want to know if there are certain foods that promote healing.
I know that protien is needed in the healing process.
Does the body burn a lot of calories healing? I’m worried about gaining weight while being laid up.
Thanks in advance.Kris

I’m certainly no expert but after other surgeries, I’ve been told to take zinc and Vitamin C supplements.
Also, if I have surgery, I only plan to be inactive for the first few days. After that, I plan to do bicep, tricep, chest and shoulder exercises with light weights in bed. After 1 – 2 weeks, I’ve been told I can do leg extensions and hamstring curls if I’m confortable and careful (with light weights.) I’ve also been thinking about leg lifts for my abs early on.
