Advanced Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery in Manhattan
Bunions are a progressive foot condition that can cause pain, swelling, difficulty wearing shoes, and changes in foot alignment. When conservative treatments no longer provide relief, minimally invasive bunion surgery may offer an effective solution.
Using specialized surgical techniques and smaller incisions, we can correct the deformity while minimizing disruption to surrounding tissues, helping patients return to their normal activities with greater comfort and confidence.
What Is a Bunion?
A bunion is a bony prominence that develops at the base of the big toe when the joint gradually shifts out of alignment. Over time, the big toe may move toward the smaller toes, causing pain, inflammation, and difficulty with daily activities.
Without proper treatment, bunions can continue to worsen and may contribute to additional foot problems, including Heel Pain, altered gait mechanics, and discomfort during walking or exercise.
Bunion Treatment Options
Treatment recommendations depend on the severity of the deformity and symptoms.
Options may include:
- Supportive footwear recommendations
- Orthotics
- Activity modification
- Anti-inflammatory treatments
- Platelet Rich Plasma Injections (PRP) when appropriate
- Advanced surgical correction
- Minimally invasive bunion surgery
Our goal is to relieve pain, restore alignment, and improve long-term foot function.
