Removing Bunions
Bunion surgery is done to reduce the pain and correct the deformity caused by a bunion.
A bunion (hallux valgus) is an enlargement of the bone or tissue around a joint at the base of the big toe or at the base of the little toe.
This one is called a “bunionette” or “tailor’s bunion.” Bunions often form when the joint is stressed over a prolonged period.
