Can any herbal supplements help in healing of a bunion ectomy?
6 doctors weighed in across 4 answers
Probably not: I am not aware of any supplements known for speedy recovery after a bunion surgery. I doubt there is any proven one, although, there may be quite a few being pitched, so you could take the bait.

Yes. : After such a surgery there will be swelling. There are many supplements that help counteract the effects of swelling. I.E bromelein, curcumin.

Bunion surgery: Herbal supplements are not well controlled. Take these at your own risk. Speak to your surgeon for any and all questions.
