The answer is… maybe. With over 30 years of combined bunion experience, we’ve seen deformities of all sizes and symptoms. Not all bunions are physically painful. Some bunions cause no problems whatsoever, whereas others can cause significant psychological problems for fear of showing that dreaded bump at the beach.
If you want to keep your bunion, we know how to treat it conservatively with appropriate shoes, custom orthotics, padding, and/or injection therapy to maximize your comfort. If you want the bunion gone, we specialize in the surgical removal of bunions. Now, there are many ways to treat a bunion. We will review all options with you to determine the best course of bunion treatment based on your individual needs.
Typically, bunion surgery is performed in an outpatient setting under sedation and takes about an hour. Most people can walk on the foot within 3 days with the use of a protective cast or shoe. The majority of our patients find themselves surprised to experience very little pain following surgery.
