Bigfoot, also known as bunion, is a common foot deformity and treatment can be broadly categorized into conservative and surgical treatments.
1. For patients with less severe deformity and less severe pain, conservative treatments can be initiated, including avoiding prolonged standing, minimizing the use of high-heeled or pointy-toe shoes, and wearing loose-fitting shoes as much as possible. Orthotics or orthopedic shoes can also be worn to improve toe deformity.
2. For patients with severe deformity or obvious pain who are ineffective in conservative treatment, surgical treatment should be considered, and according to the condition, soft tissue orthopedics, osteotomy orthopedics, soft tissue combined osteotomy orthopedics and so on can be chosen. The purpose of treatment is to correct the deformity, relieve pain and restore the normal appearance of the foot.
Patients suffering from bunion are advised to go to the hospital as soon as possible to have their condition evaluated by a professional doctor to decide on the next step of treatment.
