What is a bunion?

Not all bunions are the same

Not all bunions are the same, as they can vary in severity, underlying causes, and associated deformities. While some bunions present as mild bumps with minimal pain, others involve significant joint misalignment, leading to progressive discomfort and difficulty walking. Factors such as foot structure, biomechanics, arthritis, and even previous trauma can influence how a bunion develops and how quickly it worsens. Some patients experience pain primarily from shoe pressure, while others suffer from joint instability, stiffness, or secondary deformities like hammertoes. Understanding these differences is crucial for determining the most effective treatment—whether it's conservative management with footwear modifications and orthotics or surgical correction tailored to the specific deformity.

Traditional open bunion corrections require long incisions and significant dissection, leading to increased pain, swelling and scarring, and prolonged recovery time compared to minimally invasive techniques. Minimally invasive bunion surgery involves minimal incisions with improved precision of the correction, resulting in significantly less pain and swelling postoperatively, reduced scarring, and faster return to normal activities.

Minimally invasive bunion correction offers improved cosmetic outcomes due to the use of smaller incisions, resulting in less noticeable scarring. This approach allows for more precise surgical techniques, enhancing both the function and appearance of the foot post-surgery.

Minimally invasive bunion surgery significantly lowers the risk of infection by using smaller incisions, which reduces tissue exposure to external contaminants. With less tissue exposed, the chances of infection are notably decreased when compared to traditional open bunion surgery. This approach not only accelerates healing and recovery but also enhances patient safety by minimizing the risk of postoperative complications.

Minimally invasive bunion surgery offers improved outcomes by allowing for more precise correction with smaller incisions, which leads to less tissue damage and a quicker recovery. Patients experience reduced pain, swelling, and scarring compared to traditional open surgery, resulting in both functional and cosmetic benefits. The enhanced precision of the procedure also contributes to a lower risk of complications, such as infection or recurrence of the bunion. Overall, this approach provides a faster return to normal activities with long-lasting, more satisfying results for patients.

MIS bunion surgery procedure details

Dr. Kaitlin Neary's minimally invasive approach uses specialized techniques and small incisions to correct foot deformities with reduced pain, swelling and recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Procedure details for MIS bunion surgery:

Unlike traditional methods, these advanced techniques involve smaller incisions, resulting in reduced scarring and quicker recovery times. Patients can experience less postoperative pain and swelling, allowing for a faster return to normal activities.

MIS techniques are used to release the contracture causing your toes to bend abnormally and repair the deformity through small incisions.

We relieve painful foot conditions like Morton’s neuroma and calluses concentrated in the ball of the foot using minimally invasive methods.

Similar to bunion surgery but addressing the bump and misalignment at the base of the little toe through small incisions.
