We believe in exploring non-surgical treatments first, using therapy and other pain management tactics to help reduce pain and promote healing.
Symptoms & Treatment of Bunions
Bunions are a common foot condition, and they occur when the joint at the base of your big toe becomes enlarged and misaligned. This causes the big toe to point towards the other toes.
Symptoms:
- Difficulty wearing certain shoes
- Loss of proper foot function
- Pain doing daily activities
- Swelling
Our podiatrists and foot and ankle surgeons are trained in bunion correction. This is a surgical procedure that repositions bones in your foot to straighten your big toe and reduce the bump, giving you relief from pain and discomfort and improving your overall foot function.
