Relief is within reach, and it's closer than you might think.

What exactly are hammertoes? Imagine your toe adopting a hammer-like shape, with the joint bent unnaturally downward, causing it to press against the inside of your shoe. Ouch!

We are doing follow-up. Almost a year from the bunionectomies? Not even? We did both feet. 


"Yes."


We did the right foot and then we did the left foot. We did the bunion on this side as well as the bunionette on this side. Bunionette on the 5th. So we did a Peabody, reverse Peabody, minimally invasively, you see the scar is beautiful and then we see the scar over here, hardly any, this was from a recent injection. Excuse that.


So, range of motion is good, patient is active, able to go back to her activity.  Incision is right here, 

pin site is right here. As you can see there's no other bunions, Before she had a splay foot. 

So this splayed out. That's what before it looks like, it a splay foot so that's why we did the bunionectomy and the  reverse bunionectomy.


The minimally invasive gives you the benefit of no scars -- virtually no scars, no joint stiffness, and hardly any pain, recovery is relatively easy, am I correct? 


"Yes." 


Good, good, relatively. 

"Yes."


It's still surgery. 


"Yeah, it's all good."


But overall it looks good, are you happy with it? 


"Yes." 


Awesome.


Great results, awesome, less than a year for the other one, we're doing great. Back to work.

Post-Bunionectomy Patient Follow-up | Bunion Surgery Results

 



Bunion Surgery Follow-Up: A Journey to Improved Foot Health:

Left Foot: Five Years Later

Five years after undergoing bunion surgery on their left foot, our patient has experienced significant improvements in comfort and mobility. Before the surgery, they endured chronic pain and discomfort caused by the bunion deformity, affecting their daily activities and quality of life. However, post-operation, they've enjoyed a remarkable reduction in pain and swelling, allowing them to walk and stand with ease.


The minimally invasive bunion surgery performed at Family Foot & Leg Center has not only corrected the bunion deformity but also minimized scarring and accelerated the recovery process. Our patient is thrilled with the long-term results, as they continue to enjoy an active lifestyle without the limitations imposed by their previous foot condition.


Right Foot: Few Months Later

On the other foot, quite literally, our patient underwent bunion surgery just a few months ago, and the results are already promising. By opting for minimally invasive bunion surgery, they've experienced minimal discomfort and downtime, allowing for a smoother recovery compared to traditional surgical methods.


Already, our patient has noticed a significant improvement in the alignment of their right foot, as the bunion deformity is gradually corrected.
