A: No, surgery is only suggested when conservative treatments fail or the bunion becomes severe and affects daily movement significantly.
A bunion is an enlargment of the bone. It is also know as Hallux Valgus. This is a deformity of the bone involving the big toe and the foot. This deformity can be vary painful. A bunion is a bump at the joint of the big toe.
Bunion surgery will take a little while to recover. You should be out of work for about a week and not walking for about a month. You will be in a boot or a cast for a few weeks to a couple months possibly on crutches. Good Luck!!!!!
The need for surgery, obviously, can only be determined by a physician.
You can get relief from bunion pain by wearing a bunion corrector. Experts said it eases the pain and inflammation produced by a bunion. Also, one can wear this on heels, shoes, and when doing exercises.
