BUNION TREATMENT IN WACO, TX
Relief for Painful Bunions & Toe Deformities
Bunions are progressive foot deformities that develop near the base of the big toe, causing pain, swelling, and difficulty wearing shoes. Left untreated, bunions can worsen over time and interfere with daily activities. At Brazos Foot & Ankle, we offer personalized treatment options ranging from conservative care to advanced correction procedures, including Lapiplasty®.
What Are Bunions?
A bunion forms when the big toe gradually shifts toward the smaller toes, creating a prominent bump on the side of the foot. This condition is often caused by inherited foot structure, joint instability, and biomechanical abnormalities.
