Getting rid of a bunyan?


Question:
During the surgery, how do they get rid of it? What causes a bunyan? How bad is the recovery?

Answers:
To get rid of a bunion, the doctor will essentially shave off the excess bone. What causes a bunion? Genetics, mostly, and wearing poorly fitting shoes like shoes that are too small and high heels. The recovery is not bad. You'll be in a cast or brace for a few weeks. Likely, you'll need to be on crutches.
