Is one disabled when bone removed from big toe in waking


1 Answer

Sorry but that seems like a loaded question. If you have some bone removed from your big toe, it depends on which bone and how much bone is removed and if the joint or joints are affected. I wouldn't refer to it as the patient being disabled at least for a long term, you may require time off of work, which could fall under short term disability insurance with a job. But being long term disabled no not likely. Hope that helps.
