Plantar fasciectomy

In June I had a plantar fasciectomy.
I had a post surgical hematoma and the wound opened up after suture removal.
After about 3 months the wound closed and I was resuming normal activity.Now, months later, I am having excrutiating pain -not at the incision site, but internal foot pain.
I am just shy of not being able to walk on it?
What to do, who to see?
Will not go back to the surgeon who performed the surgery.

    You can consider seeing a different doctor. You might want to get copies of your records beforehand. I probably would want to see a MRI. Until you do, I suggest using crutches to take pressure off your foot.
