Thanks and appreciate both.
I went to podi again. The wound has to heal more. Because of swelling and inflammation nerves r getting irritated. My toe is still sore.
So once the wound completely heals it will reduce the pressure and nerve will heal. Why the wound not completely healed has no reason. But toe is sore.
It is not CRPS, podi said he is 100% sure.
Does this sound reasonable?

I think that sounds very reasonable. Just think how irritated even a small cut at the end of your finger can get until it heals.

Take care of yourself, optimize your nutrition, and find out if there is anything you need to do to help the wound heal. (saline rinse instead of soap, etc.). You can always follow up with a wound specialist if needed.

I'm glad you had a positive visit and hope you heal quickly!

I would just wait and see and keep up the appointments with your doctor(s). They will have to decide, not an online forum. We can't diagnose this, and you can't possibly expect us to do so.

I hope it's not CRPS, for your sake.

I can imagine your frustration with this problem, especially when one doctor suggested it might be CRPS and another is 100% sure it is not CRPS. I hope that everything heals soon and your podiatrist is correct that it is not CRPS.

In the meantime please feel free to share your frustrations with us. Whatever your outcome, your posts may some day help someone else who shares a similar problem. We may not be able to give you the answers that you want, but we can listen, share our experiences, and be here for you. Just know that others care and are praying for the best outcome for you.

Stay strong!

Hi Jopeful-
I'm going to agree with the other posts here. But I have another focus for you to consider. You acknowledge that you have anxiety, and with that comes the responsibility to yourself to not aggravate that condition. Anxiety is difficult to manage, but you do need to take care of your foot and your brain. (Neither your anxiety nor your pain is in your head- but they are in your brain.) Since your body is post op, and you're experiencing pain during healing, and anxiety about all of it, please take care of all of you. Keep your appointments and make an appointment with whoever helps you with your anxiety. If you don't have such a person ask your doctor about it or ask for a referral. Your body needs and deserves all the positive things you can do to feel good.
Wishing you healing and comfort,
Hotfoot53
