Roselle Bunion Surgery

Dealing with bunions can certainly be difficult. They often develop over time and at some point may need surgery or some other kind of treatment so that you can get back on your feet comfortably. Though it is not at all an uncommon foot issue, there are other methods other than the most commonly used that can be performed in order to give you better results and faster healing time following bunion surgery. Here at AFP Podiatry, our Roselle foot surgeon can provide any interested patients with the Swedish technique for bunions.

Bunions can make walking or wearing shoes quite difficult. Usually, bunions are formed from wearing shoes that are too tight for the foot. Even though this may be the case, the shoes themselves are rarely the underlying issue and are usually accompanied by a genetic predisposition as well. In a normal foot, the big toe is aligned with the other toes. All of the joints and toes of the feet should be parallel to one another. A bunion is when the joint of the big toe, which is also known as the Hallux, begins to turn inward towards the other toes. The joint of the big toe then moves outward, widening the overall shape of the foot. This joint may extend out the side of the foot creating a jarring, triangular shape. Dealing with a bunion can be annoying and can certainly make wearing normal shoes painful and uncomfortable. Additionally, it may even make the condition worse. If you have a bunion, our Roselle foot surgeon, Dr. Forni, can provide you with the Swedish technique for bunions here at AFP Podiatry – Roselle. In the Swedish technique for treating bunions, the surgery yields fewer incisions, reducing scarring and swelling, and even has a shorter healing period afterward.

Living with bunions can be difficult and the idea of any kind of surgery may scare some people. There is absolutely no need to worry with our Roselle foot surgeon. Dr. Forni can provide any interested patients with the Swedish technique for bunions here at AFP Podiatry – Roselle. Call us to schedule an appointment today.
