One of the most painful and debilitating foot problems is bunions. Bunions are usually hereditary, and are where the big toe moves progressively toward the second toe, causing a large bump on the inside of the foot and pain when walking and wearing shoes. This problem doesn't go away by itself, and it gets continually worse over time. As it worsens, more problems can develop, such as calluses, arthritis in the joint area and increasing pain. Traditionally it has taken fairly extensive surgery to correct bunion problems, but at California Foot and Ankle Institute, a technique called Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is used to correct bunions in an outpatient ambulatory surgical center. The procedures are done with a local anesthetic and light sedation. The doctor makes several small openings in the skin and utilizes an instrument called a fluoroscope to assist in performing the surgery. In this manner, pain is usually kept to a minimum, few stitches are required and the patient can walk out of the ambulatory surgical center after the procedure is completed. Our patients usually return to work within a few days and hospitalization is not necessary. The philosophy at California Foot & Ankle Institute is that Podiatric medicine should be available to the greatest number of people in order to keep the public walking pain-free. Being able to walk without pain and discomfort is widely accepted as being beneficial to everyone's health. It is particularly beneficial to the cardiovascular system, thereby extending longevity. Our minimally invasive bunion procedures have been so consistently successful that our services are often retained to correct other surgeries that failed.
