Bunionectomy: Bunion surgery in general is very effective and has a high success rate in alleviating the symptoms associated with a bunion. There are numerous procedures that can be performed depending on the extent of the deformity. Make sure you see someone that performs these surgeries frequently. If you follow your surgeon's post-operative instructions you will have a better outcome.

Select right surgeon: Bunion surgery success depends on a variety of factors: severity of deformity, quality of the repair and patient compliance. It also depends on the patient's perception of success. Surgery will not make the foot normal, it can make the foot much better. The goal is to relieve symptoms and improve function. Most do extremely well. Iselect a good foot surgeon visit acfas.Org. Dr.
