My Feet Are Killing me is awesome. There are bunions, corn chips, club feet, and a genetic condition that tugs the heartstrings.

The two hottest podiatrists on the planet return for another episode of My Feet Are Killing Me. Much like last episode, it’s easy to become distracted from the disgusting cases they effortlessly handle. Dr. Ebonie Vincent and Dr. Brad Schaeffer are ready to do the job nearly nobody else on the planet wants.

Kellie and the corn chips

You already know Kellie has an issue because her shoes are basically the go-go-gadget shoes from Inspector Gadget, fully equipped with springs in the back. She says her feet hold her back in the public eye, and people don’t view her as they should. Being overweight may also be contributing to the pain. Her personality makes it difficult to sympathize.

More from Reality TV

Realistically, it honestly looks like Kellie just stopped clipping her nails and/or washing her feet. They’re disgusting. The big toe has an atrocious fungal toenail. When surgery comes around, they can’t actually put Kelly under because ofmedical issues.

The hammer toe gets fixed with some sort of screw thingamajig. The corn chip gets removed (i.e. completely freaking torn off), and the entire time I made stank face. Post-surgery her toes look like they’re cold and huddling together for warmth.

Steven and Bigfoot

Steven has one foot that’s huge, and another that’s smaller. Now the Bigfoot is throwing gang signs, and it’s four sizes larger than the other (11 to 7). He had an injury junior year of high school, and apparently his right big toe got into an argument with his left foot, because righty is turned away, and they obviously aren’t speaking at the moment.

It’s basically the biggest bunion ever. Unlike Kellie, Steven is sedated during his entire surgery. His bunion literally looks like a chicken leg that has been gnawed down. Six weeks post-surgery and Steven is walking around with a boot. Success.

Jeffrey’s feet look like award winning cauliflower.

His feet are horribly swollen. He has Proteus Syndrome, also known as the Elephant Man’s Syndrome, it’s incredibly sad. This is not one of the cases of someone just neglecting to cut their toenails for years. This poor guy has a life altering condition, and it’s primarily in his feet. He’s even been on television before.

Dr. Brad Schaeffer is treating Jeffrey for this very rare disease, and says they are the largest feet he’s ever seen. Unfortunately. not much can be done about carving them up, but he’s able to get some of the biggest sandals on the planet made just for Jeffrey. At least now he doesn’t want to amputate his own feet. It’s all horribly depressing.
