foot surgery

A bunion is a painful bony swelling on the first joint of the big toe, caused by factors like genetics, arthritis, weak foot structure, or aging. Each step can be excruciating as the body's weight presses on the bunion, making activities like walking and wearing shoes difficult.

Symptoms include a bony bump, swelling, redness, and tenderness. To alleviate pain, maintain a healthy weight, use heat and ice therapy, wear wide-fitting shoes, and consider shoe inserts for proper foot alignment.

For persistent pain and to prevent complications like hammertoes and bursitis, consult one of our Podiatrists for a professional diagnosis and treatment options. Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) bunion repair is an advanced option that can correct the deformity with smaller incisions, resulting in faster recovery and less post-operative pain.
