Bunion removal keyhole surgery at The Private Clinic of Harley Street

The aim of bunion operation is to straighten your big toe and reduce the size of your bunion.Before bunion surgery is considered, non-surgical approaches or conservative care should be tried. You could wear extra-wide special shoes or you can use a splint. Splints hold the big toe straighter but they do not fix the problem and the toe will not remain straight when you are not wearing the splint. Anti-inflammatory medications can be of help to reduce pain and swelling, and simple painkillers can relieve the pain. Physiotherapy will not help.
