WTH? 20 minutes….and nothing since. I had the Evan’s osteotomy 5 weeks ago along with calcaneal osteotomy on same foot. In hard cast now Cast off and boot hopefully in 1 week. Cast sucks. Foot elevated most of three weeks Be nice to hear how you did. 3 years is a lot of stuff going on to prevent an update Btw…I’m 66 in good shape with positive attitude this will help. Both feet are flat but only left over pronated to a point I felt I needed surgical support

Very poorly designed part

I’m wondering how long it took you to walk pain free after surgery

I’m wondering how long it took you to walk pain free after sugery

I find this 5 weeks after my foot surgery 😭😭 lol currently hanging out in a cast for at least another week. I had extremely flat feet and then I was having pain. MRI showed my posterior tibial tendon was ripped to shreds and my arch had totally collapsed and I could barely walk

I have my surgery set for the first of November

This helped me allot thanks man

please do an update to this video. praying that it went well for you.

Thank you so much. This was quite helpful. I am having the same surgery in about five weeks, and I’m so nervous. I’ve watched several of these videos, but you were the first person who has explained the nerve block, which I will also be having. Hope everything turned out perfectlyand that you are 100% now.

Awesome work

How are your feet since surgery? I hope you are doing well!

I have been to a lot of races and participated in many races and rides and I have never seen a chain slip off the large cog of the cassette and into the spokes. Maybe it is an issue on some department store bikes, but I've never seen it or even heard of it happening to anyone.

Thanks SO much for this information. I'm 69 and have had problems with my foot/ankle for over 25 years. I've done all the non-invasive stuff and now I'm scheduled for surgery in 2 weeks Like you,. I will be having 4 procedures done (The surgery is called The All American) and in 2024, there is still very little 1st person information available so this video was God send. I hope you consider doing another video that gives us an update.

Are there any updates on this surgery?

I just had this surgery may 9th. I never knew soo many people dealing with the same problem as me Its nice to hear everyones story and comments. Im now 4 weeks in and it seems like 4 years🤦.wife and 3 kids Need to stay strong and positive 💪🏾. Just anxious to get rehab and get back to being an active dad. Patientce!!

I have very similar feet and I’m in the process of scheduling surgery. I’d love to know how you’re doing. And best of success to your business and life experiences.

I hate these so much

Hi Cedrick, thank you very much for your generosity explaining in details what you have been through with your flat feet operation. Actually, I’m 80 years old, live in Spain and so happens that I’m immersed in the process of what is called “Osteotomía varizante de calcáreo” and your video help me first of all to understand the procedure and above all to be patient. In my case, the “provoque flat feet”, was caused by walking barefoot on hard sand in the beach during long periods of time, something I never knew or red about. Hope you are well and I repeat THANK YOU.

Plz give an update, I'm 42 & have been limited from this condition since the age of 7. The pain and issues have definitely progressed over the years. My feet are so flat, I'm slufoot, my ankle bones aren't even properly positioned and the arch bone is bowed outward. I really want to go to a great doctor who knows what he's doing and have no reviews or testimonials to have an idea of whom to consider

Cedric, I hope you’re doing well and that your surgery was successful and improved the quality of your life. However your video has only confused us even more due to the lack of any update regarding your rehab process and overall result after healing. That’s really the whole point of the surgery and what people suffering with severe flat feet are looking for. Wishing you all the best!

I wonder if we have this kind of surgery in South Africa?

How long were you on crutches?

Could you please give an update, how you are doing today? How the healing process was and if you were able to be back on your feet in September as planned... and how the 2nd surgery went - if you did it. I am really interested. I may also need to get corrective surgery and yes, you are right - there is hardly any material out there. A recap would be much appreciated! Greetings from Berlin, Germany. 🤗

Hey, Cedric, I just watched your really helpful video. I'm due to have foot reconstruction surgery and I'm freaking out about the screws. They're going to cut my ankle in half among other things. Were you ever able to run again? Please, an update?!

Please we need to know how are you doing.. was the surgery helpful? Thanks from Bolivia 😊

Can you run now?? Dance? Wear high heels?? Would really like to be able to do all these things!!

Was it worth it bcz im a competitive cyclist too and i have really bad flat foot i tried exercising the arch and all that work and i got scoliosis too im still 18 what do u think sir.

Thank you were making this video. I am getting flatfoot reconstruction next month and this video is very helpful.

Did you have this surgery in the USA? The orthopaedic surgeons I’ve been to in Canada say there is nothing they can do for me.

I had severe flat feet. I didn’t even know there was corrective surgery until I was referred to a great orthopedic surgeon. I had my right foot corrected in Nov of 2022. Then the left one 5 weeks ago in Dec of 2023. If your in pain can’t walk right, or do anything that this deformity causes go see an orthopedic surgeon . Go to someone that has done this surge try multiple times, everyday. I know podiatrists can do it, but they don’t do this everyday. I am not slamming them, but this is a big surgery. Next be prepared for the none weight bearing process. It’s the toughest part. Think of everything and plan. How can you move in your house? Get to work? Shower? If you plan this will go much easier. When you go to physical therapy it will hurt, walking will hurt. For me, I had the calf lengthened, an extra bone removed, some type of prosthetic in my ankle and heal bone moved. So you will not take off the minute you start putting weight on it, be patient. You will be sore after long walks even at 6 to 8 months. For me it was about 10 months. But it was so successful, I did the left foot. It’s a long process, but had no idea what it would give me back. I wish you well Cedric and I hope when I go back this week I get to start putting weight in it!

Omg our feet looks absolutely the same I have extreme flat feet and my surgery is 12/5/23 I'm 54 yrs old I live alone with 2 pups I'm so scared of the replacing my heel centering it also putting cadaver bones in me also lengthening my calf muscle/tendon I'm just sad I'm scared the pain will be extreme ty for the video

Had it done and still healing,was January 13

Just somehow came across this. Can you give an update now? I am VERY curious. I never knew this was the cause of so much pain.

The video is awesome and very informative. I will have reconstructive foot surgery in November 2023. Thank you for sharing.

Would have saved me a lot of headache, sweat, and stress if TH-cam had recommended me this video rather than all the other compression plug videos. Loosened the inner bolt up like all the other videos mention & the expander dropped down my fork. I had to order a pick to slide the expander parts up the tube then I was able to turn the bike upside down to get the bottom wedge out. Thanks for explaining how the system works with a demonstration as well! I understand it way better now.

Yo C-Dog, what's your status? We want to hear how you are doing. It's bee two years. Where's the update video?

Jan. 18th I had surgery... 5 procedures.. now, 6 months later, walking, but still in pain. Alighment is great... just keeping fingures crossed for recovery. This is a long one!

Hey Cedrick, I hope you are doing much better. Can you please give us an update video? You are correct that there are very few videos by patients who have had this surgery. You could do the world a big favor by giving us updates. I will subscribe to you now with hopes that we hear from you. Blessings!

Thanks, surgery booked for 3 weeks from now. You explain things so well. Looking forward to being able to walk without pain.

Thanks - very helpful video.

Thanks. It helped

How are you now en did you do the other foot also? I’m thinking to get the surgery too.

nice!

i did not know they could correct flat feet. I have high arches which has its own issues. Never heard of flat feet surgery...glad it went well.

Quick coupler is electric

I had surgery 2 years ago for a collapsed left foot. This had limited walking, gym, standing, I had become a prisoner in my own house. In the past I had bunion surgery, so I went back to the sane Doctor and facility. His diagnosis was an operation with a 3 month time frame of not putting that left foot down on the floor. I had to keep the leg propped up on a special pillow. I would say I was on medication for about a week. Since I had to visit him 5 days after the operation, I bought a knee scooter, so I could get around. It helped . After a 10 week recovery, I graduated to a boot, for two weeks. The shoe he recommended was HOKA, BONDI 7. This shoe has a wide toe front with a thick soul. They also have recovery shoes that helped significantly. Don’t put the operation off. After the operation I had problems with my balance, with therapy there was improvement. After a busy day I am tired, however I have a quality of like that I would not have enjoyed. Good luck.

Hey how are you now?

Thanks! didn't care about it but it was busted up and in the way. cut it off in less than 5 minutes... just the snipper tool required. Sweet!

How is now?

Wow! This is so beautiful. Thank you ❤
