I had a triple fusion of my right ankle last year. It has been a full year since my surgery. In the last 2 weeks I noticed a bump sticking out of the inner portion of my right foot. I did go to the doctor to see if perhaps some of the metal screws had come loose and was poking out of my foot . Everything was inplace. The doctor said I had a hernia of my foot. I did not know hernias could form in the foot? My concern is, Can it become a problem? Can it be repaired? I know hernias in other areas can be fixed. Is there anything I can do about the hernia? I sure would appreciate any information you can give me on this problem. thank you, Mish456
