Bunion Surgery (click for worldwide facilities list): A bunion is an abnormal, bony bump that forms on the joint at the base of your big toe. This big toe joint becomes enlarged, forcing the toe to crowd against your other toes. This puts pressure on your big toe joint, pushing it outward beyond the normal profile of your foot, and resulting in pain.

Bunions can occur for a number of reasons, but a common cause is wearing shoes that fit too tightly. Bunions can also develop as a result of an inherited structural defect, stress on your foot or a medical condition, such as arthritis.

Nonsurgical treatments that may relieve the pain and pressure of a bunion include: changing shoes, taping and padding your foot into a normal position to reduce stress on the bunion and alleviate your pain, medication, and wearing shoe inserts
If conservative treatment doesn't provide relief from your symptoms, you may need surgery. A number of surgical procedures are performed for bunions, and no particular surgery is best for every problem. Knowing what caused your bunion is essential for choosing the best procedure to ensure correction without recurrence. Most surgical procedures include a bunionectomy, which involves:
Removing the swollen tissue from around your big toe joint
Straightening your big toe by removing part of the bone
Realignment of the metatarsal bone to reduce angular deformity
Permanently joining the bones of your affected joint

urgery isn't recommended unless a bunion causes you frequent pain or interferes with your daily activities. A bunionectomy — like other types of surgery — is not without risk. Additionally, you may still have pain or you could develop a new bunion in your big toe joint after surgery.
