Hello fellow bunion warriors! Dealing with these pesky bony bumps on your feet can be a real pain, both literally and figuratively. But fret not, because at Sutherland Podiatry Centre, we understand the discomfort and the need for effective, tailored solutions. Let’s dive into the world of bunions and the wide array of non-surgical and surgical options available to put the spring back in your step!
Understanding the Bunion Blues:
First things first, let’s demystify these foot foes. Bunions are like unwelcome house guests that just won’t leave. They usually develop at the base of the big toe, causing it to bend towards the other toes, resulting in that notorious bony protrusion. Ouch, right? They can make finding comfortable shoes a nightmare and even lead to persistent pain and discomfort.
Non-Surgical Marvels:
1. Custom Orthotics to the Rescue:
Sometimes, all it takes is a little extra support to turn that frown upside down. Our custom-made orthotics are like magic wands for your feet, providing the right cushioning and support to alleviate the pressure on your bunion.
2. Splints and Pads for Comfort:
Say hello to your new bunion buddies! These handy splints and pads work wonders in gently guiding your toe back into place and easing the pain caused by those pesky shoes.
3. Lifestyle Adjustments for Relief:
Sometimes, a few tweaks to your everyday routine can make a world of difference. We’ll guide you through the best footwear choices and recommend exercises that can help prevent the bunion from worsening.
When Surgery Becomes the Superhero:
While we’re all about exploring non-surgical options first, we understand that some bunions need a little more attention. Here’s where our expert team comes in, offering a range of surgical treatments tailored to your specific needs:
