Hi ~ I've had this surgery, and it's a SNAP! There was nothing to it, and when it was over I had NO PAIN at all!! I did have to wear a brace for about 6 weeks afterwards, but that was quite a few years ago ~ at least 15yrs.

I have not had any trouble at all since the surgery. Gosh, I'm so glad I did it. The pain was just awful before the surgery. I wanted to scream because it was so painful. But my surgeon did an excellent job, and you can even see the scar.

I hope you have the same success. It's really a simple surgery. God bless and good luck. Hugs, Lee
