Understanding Bunions and Their Impact on Feet

When it comes to foot ailments, bunions are a common concern that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Also known as hallux valgus, bunions occur when the big toe deviates inwards, causing a visible bony bump on the side of the foot. This misalignment can lead to discomfort, pain, and difficulty wearing certain shoes.

At The Foot Practice, we understand the impact that bunions can have on your daily life. Our podiatrists have extensive expertise in diagnosing, treating, and managing bunions, ensuring that our patients receive effective solutions for their foot problems. Whether you're experiencing mild discomfort or severe pain, we're here to help.

Specialized Treatments for Bunions

Conservative Approaches

In many cases, non-surgical methods can effectively address bunions and alleviate associated symptoms. Our podiatrists will carefully evaluate your condition and recommend appropriate conservative treatments tailored to your specific needs. These may include:

• Footwear Modifications: Wearing properly fitting shoes with a wide toe box can help reduce pressure on the bunion.
• Orthotics: Custom-made orthotic devices can provide support and correct foot alignment, reducing pain and preventing further bunion development.
• Padding and Taping: Using specialized padding and taping techniques can relieve pressure on the bunion and enhance comfort.
• Physical Therapy: Targeted exercises and stretches can improve foot function and alleviate pain associated with bunions.

Surgical Interventions

In cases where conservative treatments fail to provide sufficient relief, surgical intervention may be necessary. The Foot Practice offers advanced surgical options for bunions, performed by our skilled podiatrists who specialize in foot and ankle surgery. Some common surgical procedures we offer include:

• Bunionectomy: This procedure involves the removal of the bony prominence and realignment of the affected toe joint, resulting in improved foot stability and reduced pain.
• Osteotomy: It involves cutting and repositioning the affected bone, restoring normal toe alignment and function.
• Arthrodesis: In more severe cases, fusion of the affected joint may be necessary to alleviate pain and enhance foot stability.
