If you’re living with bunion pain or stiffness, the experts at Orthopaedics NorthEast (ONE) have a minimally invasive option for bunion correction that may be effective in helping you reduce your pain and regain your mobility. This innovative procedure, which works to realign the bony structures of your big toe, is performed through tiny incisions. Because the procedure is truly minimally invasive, patients are generally able to recover faster with less pain and more natural motion. On average, patients can recover up to eight weeks faster compared to traditional bunion correction surgery.
The procedure, which can be performed at Parkview Ortho Hospital or SurgeryONE, is considered outpatient. Most patients will be able to go home the day of surgery and will be able to walk that day without the need of crutches or a knee scooter. As the only practice group in the region to perform this innovative procedure, ONE is uniquely equipped to help you get back to life as soon as possible.
Your healthcare provider can help you decide if this minimally invasive surgery is right for you.
