How long until you can walk after Bunion Surgery?

When can I walk after bunion surgery is a common question asked by many people.  Well, the answer is complicated. It depends on what kind of Bunion procedure you are having performed.  Some Podiatrists do a procedure where you can walk immediatly, others you have to wait 6 weeks.  The most common procedure has a 2 week wait time until you can walk after bunion surgery.  However, do not shop around for a doctor with shorter periods until you walk. Sometimes that is not the best recourse and there is a chance that you will require a longer down period before having to walk.
