I have a mucus ganglion on the joint of my right big toe. Three years ago I had an operation at The Ulster Clinic but the problem quickly recurred. I have been managing the discharge by foot baths & using padded dressings. Mr Kelly explained carefully that I had two options I could have another operation but there would be a 30 percent chance that the fluid would start leaking again or I could have the joint removed - it would mean my toe would be unbending. We agreed that I would continue managing but if the toe becomes painful I would make another appointment to see him.
