Bunion surgery

Bunions, known as hallux valgus, are painful bony protrusions that form at the base of the big toe. This condition can cause pain, inflammation, and difficulty wearing appropriate footwear. If you suffer from bunions and are seeking an effective solution, don't hesitate to contact us to schedule a consultation and explore our specialized podiatric surgery options.

Bunions, or hallux valgus, are painful bony protrusions that develop at the base of the big toe due to deviation towards the other toes. This condition can cause pain, inflammation, and difficulty wearing appropriate footwear, especially narrow-toed shoes that put pressure on the affected area. Factors such as genetic predisposition, wearing inappropriate footwear, and underlying medical conditions contribute to the development of bunions. When conservative treatments do not relieve symptoms, surgery may be an option to correct the deformity and restore foot function, thereby improving the patient’s quality of life.

Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery

At our clinic, we perform bunion surgery in a hospital setting using advanced minimally invasive techniques. This approach allows us to correct the bony deformity with minimal incisions, which reduces recovery time and postoperative discomfort.

How is the postoperative period after bunion surgery?

After the surgery, it’s common to experience some discomfort and swelling in the treated area. We recommend keeping the foot elevated and applying ice packs to reduce inflammation. Our team will provide detailed instructions on postoperative care to ensure a complete and complication-free recovery. At our podiatry clinic, we specialize in bunion treatments using minimally invasive surgery (MIS), ensuring effective intervention and a quicker recovery for our patients. Our commitment is to relieve pain and improve foot functionality, allowing you to walk comfortably and confidently once again.
