What is Bunion Surgery?
Bunion surgery realigns the first metatarsal and great toe when a hallux valgus deformity causes pain, shoe conflict or lesser-toe problems that no longer respond to footwear change. The surgeon cuts and realigns bone, tightens or loosens soft tissue, and fixes the correction with screws or a plate. Dressings and a postoperative shoe protect the osteotomy.
