Foot Surgery
Foot surgery is a procedure to treat injuries, deformities, or conditions in the foot, such as bunions, fractures, or arthritis. There are different types, depending on the issue. For example, bunion surgery involves removing or realigning the bone to reduce pain and correct the toe’s position.
Fracture repairs might require screws or plates to stabilize broken bones. Other procedures could involve repairing tendons or removing damaged tissue. The goal of foot surgery is to relieve pain, improve function, and restore mobility, but recovery often includes rest, physical therapy, and sometimes wearing a protective boot.
