Virginia Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery
A bunion is an often painful bony bump that develops at the base of the big toe or little toe. If a bunion deformity is left untreated, it can lead to other issues, such as hammertoe or arthritis. A bunion operation entails straightening the toe and metatarsals that are caused by the bunion. Many patients who suffer from foot pain avoid bunion surgery out of fear of unsightly scarring, a slow and painful recovery, missing long durations of work, or not being able to care for themselves and their responsibilities. This is why our team at the Dynamic Foot and Ankle Center offers a Virginia minimally invasive bunion surgery so that there is faster recovery while still addressing the issue itself.

Why Choose Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery
Through minimally invasive bunion surgery, mild to moderate bunion deformities can be corrected. With this technique, there is no need to open the joint, which can spare blood supply to the bones. Patients won’t have to deal with the same degree of inner and external scar tissues compared to traditional bunion surgery. There is a reduced timeframe for physical therapy and less time required for scar tissue break-up in the big toe joint. During the minimally invasive bunion surgery, we are guided through x-rays and use specific instruments to shave the bone at the joint and administer stabilizing screws. The bone is secured and corrected with less swelling, less postoperative pain, better correction, and ability to weight-bear right away.
