Will this get rated together or separate I am having surgery here in Jan 2016 for:

1. Bunions (hallux valgus) removal.

2. Hallux rigidus bone spurs

3. I am presently undergoing treatment for Morton disease Morton Neuroma (Neurosclerotherpy

Metatarsalgia, anterior (Morton’s disease), unilateral, or bilateral............................ 10%

Bunions (hallux valgus) When the big toe points toward the second toe, a bunion can form on the outside of the big toe. If the bony bump is removed by surgery, then it is rated 10%.

Hallux rigidus occurs when bone spurs (bony growths) cause arthritis to form at the base of the big toe, causing it to be stiff and hard to move. This condition is rated 10%. This rating cannot be combined with a rating for claw foot. Only one or the other can be rated.

Present rating: Here is my present rating.

right foot hallux valgus claimed as right toe pain and right foot arthritis 0%

right foot pes planus also claimed as right foot arthritis 30%

thanks
