Diagnosing and treating bunions in Canarsie

Bunion treatment in Canarsie

Bunions are an extremely common foot problem. If you are feeling pain from your bunions, or are unhappy with the appearance of your feet due to your bunion problem, you should come to see us at Metropolitan Foot Care. Our expert podiatrist, Dr. Payman Rabiei, can provide you with complete bunion treatment in Canarsie.

While it is believed that people can inherit bunions, the truth is that people can inherit a specific foot structure that makes it more likely that bunions will develop. Sometimes people have bunions, and are simply not bothered by them. If this is the case, you have no need to visit our podiatrist for bunion care. However, if your bunions are enlarging, or are causing any type of foot pain, you will want to come to our podiatry office for bunion treatment in Canarsie. When a person has a bunion, they have a misaligned big toe joint. The first joint of the big toe will begin to slant outward, and the second joint will angle back toward the other toes. In some cases, the bunion will become extremely painful. Arthritis can also set into the toe joint, making the foot condition even worse. There are many different things that our podiatrist can do to help relieve your bunion pain, or to permanently fix your bunion problem. There are different types of surgeries available to remove bunions. Additionally, there are things our podiatrist can do to ease bunion pain, such as providing prescription orthotics which should help the bunion from becoming worse, as well as relieve foot pain caused by the bunion. For some people, bunions become so large, that they make it impossible for a person to find shoes that are comfortable and which properly fit. In this case, bunion surgery will most likely be needed. However, there are many bunion conditions which can be treated at our office with injections to relieve pain in the toe, or with foot taping. For an appointment to meet with our podiatrist for complete bunion treatment in Canarsie, simply contact our office today.
