When is surgery recommended to correct a bunion?
A bunion is a painful swelling on the first joint of the big toe, usually causing the big toe to point inwards towards the other toes.

Surgery is generally only recommended when the bunion prevents the sufferer from wearing normal shoes. The results are not drastic and do not generally improve the overall look of the foot and therefore should not be considered purely for cosmetic reasons.
