I'm already tired of the sight of this bone/bump on my leg. While you pick up your shoes. and in principle, when you’re barefoot and hide your foot, I’m embarrassed.
she appeared after pregnancy, on one leg.
very grateful to you for your answers.
please don’t throw away your slippers, I’m asking because I need real advice or feedback
in our city, it can be done, but it seems to me that the method is outdated.
in the capital after all, maybe medicine is moving forward
I know. that the operation does not save, it still worsens over time.
Smear it with iodine.
Of course, there are inconveniences. but who told you that you should be ashamed of this? This is not the second head - it’s just your peculiarity, and your loved one will not love you less for it! it’s like hair on the body - some have it, some have a lot or a little, and some don’t have it at all :) don’t torture yourself - try to simplify your view of this matter - and everything will be ok!
Now they don’t cut 100%, just walk with a cast for a month, that’s what the surgeon told me
it's called something else by a friend, it looks like a bone on the side of the foot near the big toe
The cost consists of:
1.Purchase of medicines (from 500 UAH-1000 UAH). Price depends on listing and purchasing method. You can buy the list yourself from a doctor, or order with the help of a doctor, the price will be the same. When purchasing through a doctor, the courier from the pharmacy will bring all the medications with the invoice directly to the room (and the payment will also be made with him), this will save you from searching for medications in pharmacies; if there is a good way to purchase prices then it makes sense to do it yourself. Another option is to buy it at the same pharmacy on Kikvidze 1/2 (entrance from Bastionnaya), with a 15% discount for pensioners (you can take a relative with an ID to help)).
2. Depending on the chosen method of operation, the doctor will tell you what materials you need to buy (if necessary): a knitting needle, screw(s), maybe something else. The price for these materials varies depending on the country of origin. China is cheaper, German is more expensive. Screw from 800 to 2500. I know friends who bought screws for 1000 UAH, 1500 UAH and 2500 UAH. All operations were not performed in private clinics.
3. Payment for a voluntary transfer to the fund from the hospital (orthopedics department). A receipt is given at the hospital. Amount 300-500 UAH. This money, as I found out, is used for hospital expenses (feeding patients, purchasing medications, light/heating). For example, in this hospital, in the orthopedic department, the head makes repairs in the wards/corridor/restrooms/shower room not with funds from the state, but with his own and other contributions. Which is very nice because... the manager’s economic hand and care for patients and doctors/medical staff are visible.
4. The patient’s gratitude to the doctor (gratitude is also included to the doctor’s faithful companion, the anesthesiologist). Of course, no one will say the amount, the patient decides on his own, just behind the scenes, we all know that this is how it is in medicine - to thank the doctor. Therefore, I will give examples from those with whom I consulted (patients like me were operated on in different places in Kiev): two legs - 1500 UAH each, 1 leg - 3000 UAH, 5000 UAH - the whole operation on 2 legs with screws cost (my friend doesn’t know where and what, only knows the total amount, and what is in this amount is 1000 UAH for being in the hospital), coming from Crimea, she paid 5500 UAH according to the issued receipt to the cashier (she was operated on at the Institute of Traumatology on Vorovsky) and 2500 UAH thanks to the doctor, one woman for 2 legs - 2600 (for all in one amount).
To summarize, based on the information collected: to make 2 legs costs about 5000 UAH in the city hospital of Kyiv. Doing two at once is more profitable in terms of money.
1.purchase of gels and tablets to relieve swelling and bruises, cream for rapid healing of the scar;
2. some people buy Baruk’s shoes (these are special shoes for 2-4 weeks, new 350 UAH/piece, used 250-300 UAH/piece - I’ll sell mine);
3.order individual insoles and interdigital silicone partition.
I would appreciate any opinions.
Mobile application “Happy Mama” 4.7 Communicating in the application is much more convenient!
Mom's aunt made it. I didn't regret it. I don’t remember about restoration anymore, to be honest.
no, they didn't come back. I did it about 5 years ago.
There is an opinion that they then appear again, because... This is how the foot adapts with flat feet... Haven’t returned?
you will just need to wear special insoles to prevent flat feet
On the contrary, it’s good that you found it!
maybe they didn't examine it? some kind of fairytale connection
I try, I buy orthopedic insoles... it seems easier... After the 3rd pregnancy the situation worsened, because... Weight gain is contraindicated if you have bunions... I also consider surgery as an option to solve the problem..
no no1 this is due to ignorance! I've heard something like this! that tumors were found when a person broke his leg, and if they hadn’t broken the picture, they wouldn’t have taken it.
do yours stick out a lot?
I don’t even bother yet... but I can’t walk for a long time (after 4 hours of walking, my legs hurt even in flip-flops) I like to walk a lot, this has never happened before, my legs are starting to hurt! I’m generally silent about heels, 2-3 hours and that’s it... crawling home.
Bye... well, let's not do this! I partly believe in this too! but here the treatment occurs with the help of this injury
on my right hand, after the 3rd pregnancy, it began to stick out really strongly, because weight gain is contraindicated ((((and the load increased by 15 kg(((so I started thinking about surgery
I agree with you here.
but here again, why does it grow for some and not for others?
I have an upward trend, I had flat feet and scoliosis in my youth, then it all became chronic and now I have protrusion of a lumbar vertebra at the age of 26 ((
Can you imagine what a thing, I broke my toe as a child, they put a plaster cast along the length of my entire foot, and since then it was on this foot that the bone stopped growing!
hmm... I don’t know, they’ve always prescribed me insoles
Of course, I was a child then and didn’t understand it at all! nothing hurt then!
flat feet i.e. precisely transverse... damn you need to keep an eye on the children1 the orthopedist said that they have transverse ((
no, I’m just saying that when I addressed my problem, they only prescribed this to me and nothing else! Well, and therapeutic gymnastics!
I watched one program, they said that during the operation doctors tighten the tendons and form the arch of the foot.
ok, thanks, I already remember
oooooh... I have this problem... as far as I know... nothing criminal, but I will have to walk on crutches.
can you tell me how much?
but looking at my grandmother... her legs are screwed.
but I’m afraid 🙁 it seems very painful to recover. I just saw a girl after such an operation, she was wearing special shoes 🙁 she could barely move ((I probably won’t dare to do this ((
Here I am, thinking. I'll probably have to hobble around for about a month?
yes, the rehabilitation there is long 🙁 the doctor told me ((
I’m going to have a laser... they promise a recovery of 3-6 months, maybe even earlier, but they don’t give a 100% guarantee that it won’t grow again (((I’m waiting for summer
I didn’t even know that laser was possible. 3-6 months on crutches? How much it costs?
I had a consultation in the fall - it cost 35 thousand at a laser clinic... I don’t know what it is now.
I accidentally saw it in an advertisement
I'm going to have surgery at the end of this fall. I have flat feet, I think they will make the arch of the foot correct, without this there is no point in removing the bones. I read that you need to stay in the hospital for 12-14 days. and at home for 2 weeks. Walk for 2-3 days in special shoes. It seems that the first 2 weeks are difficult.
I also have flat feet... Where will you do it and how much does this pleasure cost?
I was thinking about the medical expert, doctors come there from Poland. In fact, I haven’t collected much information on Kaliningrad yet, but I’ll be working closely on this issue in September, when I finish the Civil War. But I’ll definitely do it, I can’t even walk with this deformity ((((
I won’t say about the price... I read in sources from 30 to 50 per leg
Most orthopedists recommend immediate surgery for Hallux Valgus, regardless of the degree of hallux valgus. Although surgical intervention is actually indicated only if it is impossible to wear shoes and walk due to severe pain or very large curvature when the fingers overlap each other, see photo:
In other cases, the operation in which the bunions on the big toes are removed is only of an aesthetic nature. After all, with the disappearance of the bump, the main reason for its appearance does not go away - this is transverse flatfoot.
There are no words that a competently performed, successful operation will remove the bumps on the big toes. And if not? Wasted money (the cost of such a hallux valgus operation is 60,000-80,000 rubles), time, complications, repeated surgical interventions that also do not produce results, and in especially severe cases, even disability.
How do expensive clinics advertise themselves? “Go the next day, go to work the next week!” Is it possible? For many people, ordinary small scratches heal within a week, so what do you expect from major surgery on your leg joints?
If you are wondering whether to undergo such a correction for purely aesthetic reasons, we would like to bring you reviews of people who have collected surgery for hallux valgus on the Internet in social networks and on medical forums. These are not even reviews, but requests for help. However, read for yourself.
Larisa, had surgery in Israel:
“Hello, my name is Larisa, I’m 39 years old. 3 years ago I had hallux valgus surgery on my right leg. All these 3 years, my leg was swollen and my toe did not bend, I did not put on a heel. I took an x-ray and it turned out that one of the two screws that were inserted during the operation went into the cartilage tissue and caused erosion there. They performed another operation on me, took out the screws and cleaned the cartilage. Three months have passed, the finger hurts and is swollen, now I took an x-ray again and it shows that a very small part of the cartilage tissue remains, and the pain now occurs when walking, as the bones rub against each other. The doctors told me that nothing can be restored, now I will need to completely remove the cartilage tissue and use a knitting needle to attach the finger to the bone, and it will no longer bend, and there will be no friction, and as a result the finger will be 1 cm shorter, but it will not hurt will. I don't want any more surgeries like this. I'm already afraid to have this operation again. "
“In August 2010, I had surgery to remove a bunion near the big toe on my left foot. The operation, in my opinion, is not complicated. Immediately after it, I noticed that my thumb was very far away from the rest to the right side, but the doctors calmed me down. don't worry, it will fall into place! Severe swelling, pain and abnormal appearance persisted for a very long time. I went to work, but since the pain and swelling were very strong, I had to go to the hospital for help again. I had another operation using lavsan tape, they used it to tighten the arch of my foot so that the toe would return to its place, since it became clear that it would not straighten itself. After the second operation, the swelling increased, the foot became wider, and to this there were 4 new stitches. It became even worse than after the first one. After some time, one of the stitches festered, we managed to cope with this, but the leg remained in the same condition. At first they extended my sick leave, but then I was discharged, despite the huge swelling, deformation of the entire foot, and a twisted big toe that never went back into place. I went back to work, but soon, due to unbearable pain, I had to go to the city hospital, where I received unsuccessful treatment as a day hospital for two weeks. I WAS OFFERED A THIRD OPERATION. I refused because I wasn’t sure it would be successful. At the moment, my foot is in a terrible condition, that is, it is completely deformed, there is severe pain, I cannot fully move and it is not possible to live, I walk with a limp. Help. What should I do next. The chief traumatologist in the region advised me not to undergo surgery for at least a year, but I cannot walk normally, while I work. What will you advice me. Can I claim disability for a year? These are doctors' mistakes.
Answer from a specialist on the website health.mail.ru:
“Of course, you are shown to have a disability. The operations you underwent were complex; the doctors probably wanted the best. But these operations are very traumatic, do not always succeed, and do not guarantee results. You should have thought twice and consulted before doing such operations. So it turned out: “as soon as you seriously begin to undergo treatment, you immediately begin to get seriously ill.” Looking for the guilty is a waste of time for you.”
“Two months ago I had foot surgery for hallux valgus using tendon grafting. I do the necessary exercises to develop my thumb every day. But he remains almost motionless and his foot swells a lot every evening. "
“The neighbor deleted it, but they appeared again!”
Lina, 35, November 2012:
“In June 2012, they cut out a lump near my big toe, the pain still doesn’t go away, I can’t step on my toes, I can’t wear heels, I went to the doctor, he prescribed magnetic fields, I went through it, but it was of no use, tell me what now do? My leg hurts so much I can’t really put anything on. "
If the lump is not yet very large, if it has just appeared or there are prerequisites for this, take this problem seriously and try to stop further deformation using conservative methods.
Yes, every year the quality of operations on the bones near the big toes improves, newer, modern methods appear, but complications occur even among highly qualified specialists.
Conservative treatment of hallux valgus is possible; it consists of a whole range of measures, including physical therapy, massage, the use of special orthopedic devices, the most effective of which is the Hallufix hallux valgus splint, and wearing insoles, preferably custom-made. All this will help you stop further curvature of the joint and significantly correct the one that already exists, without surgery. Remember that these are your feet and you have to walk on them!
A protruding bunion is a clear sign of the onset of a common foot disease.
It gained great popularity among the people as leg bones. Among specialists, it is referred to as a disease of hallux valgus. Next we will talk about how dangerous this disease is and how you can get rid of bunions on your feet.
Considering this pathology, it should be said that it is a cosmetic defect. As the toe moves, the foot becomes deformed, which gives it a very unattractive appearance. In addition to this, quite often, against the background of hallux valgus, pathological changes develop that affect various structures of the foot. They later cause difficulties while walking. To save a person from all these inconveniences, doctors prescribe surgery to remove a bone in the legs. And when he decides to take such a step, the main goal is to eliminate the deformation .
First of all, you need to see a doctor. additional examination will be required , the results of which can be used to more accurately determine whether the inflammatory processes have spread to the periosteum, whether a cyst, arthritis, or other changes have developed. When deciding on the method of removing bunions, it is important to consider the degree of deformation.
In the first stages of the development of the disease, the specialist prescribes conservative therapy. Very effective here is:
As additional measures, orthopedic insoles can be used, the positive effect of which is to reduce the load on the joints, and in addition, special fixators.
At the same time, many people who discover signs of hallux valgus are in no hurry to consult a doctor at the first symptoms. Usually, they decide to tell a specialist about their problem only at the moment when the disease has progressed for quite a long time, and the bones on their feet cause a lot of discomfort. If you have to deal with such cases, doctors often turn to the only effective method - surgical treatment of bunions.
Those who believe that surgery is a very unpleasant solution to the problem are wrong. During the operation, the specialist uses local anesthesia . By shifting the position of the big toes, the specialist is able to give the foot the correct anatomical structure. After the operation is completed, the patient can begin to walk within a few days. After a week has passed since the completion of the operation, he can subject his feet to a variety of stresses. When two weeks have passed since the surgical removal of the bunions, the sutures are removed.
Currently, there are about 100 types of operations that help to remove bunions quite effectively. Among them, the most widespread are the following:
Most often, preference is given to such a method as correction of the transverse arch of the foot. According to experts, the use of this method allows you to achieve the best result while minimizing the negative effect that can occur as a result of surgery. The essence of this operation is to change the angle between the bones of the foot.
Exostectomy is also a fairly popular method. Briefly it can be described as excision of part of the head of the metatarsal bone of the big toe. In other words, in this case, the bone is removed, due to which the appearance of the foot deteriorates. In addition to this, the soft tissue around the joint is also removed.
Also, to combat the bunion, they resort to an operation such as resection arthroplasty . It is based on the removal of part of the joint in the place where the metatarsal bone is located. As a result of surgical intervention, the specialist forms new articular surfaces, which allows the biomechanics of the joint to be restored.
In some cases, an appropriate method for removing a bunion may be arthrodesis, which is quite affordable. Its essence comes down to fixing the joint of the big toe, which makes it possible to make it immobile. When performing such an operation, the specialist needs to remove the cartilaginous surfaces. Having done this, the surgeon fixes the bones. It is very important here that the articular surfaces are in contact with each other as rigidly as possible until they are completely fused.
Good results when removing bunions can be achieved using a laser. Surgeons began to use this method, which has an affordable price, quite recently, which is why it has not become widespread. Its essence boils down to the fact that the bones of the phalanges of the fingers are subjected to grinding . One of the positive aspects of this operation is that it can be performed on both legs at the same time. Typically, laser removal of a bunion takes no more than 1 hour.
To remove bunions, the surgeon may also resort to osteotomy. When performing it, the main goal is to eliminate deformation due to an artificial bone fracture. To remove bunions from a patient’s feet, specialists resort to removing part of the phalangeal or metatarsal bone of the big toe.
The above-mentioned methods of treating bunions in the legs are complemented by a method such as endoprosthetics. It is based on complete removal of the joint where the identified pathology developed. The final stage of the operation is the placement of an artificial implant to replace the removed one.
After the patient has a bone removed, he is prohibited from getting up and walking during the first hours. The next day after the operation is completed, the patient can move his fingers. The patient receives permission to walk after 7-10 days from the date of surgery.
But even here he should be careful, avoiding pressure on the surface of the operated area. Otherwise, it will take longer for the bones and soft tissues to heal. Normal load on the foot is allowed only after 1 month after treatment. Returning to a normal lifestyle, including playing sports and wearing high-heeled shoes, is allowed after 6 months from the date of completion of the operation to remove the bunion.
Rehabilitation plays an important role in the treatment of bunions. To avoid complications during this period, it is advisable to adhere to the following recommendations:
Since the age of 17, I have experienced a lot of discomfort about this bone. And to this day I cannot understand what caused its development. Maybe it's a genetic factor , or maybe it's all because I wore the wrong shoes. But, be that as it may, I feel great discomfort because of this. The thing is that it is difficult for me to find suitable shoes, and in addition to this, after every time I take off my shoes, I feel pain. In addition, this bone greatly spoils my appearance. I tried for a long time to treat this disease using traditional methods, but none could help me. I think that with the help of surgery I will finally solve my problem.
Because of a bunion, I haven’t been able to feel at ease for many months now. My mother also had this disease, so I can judge that it is hereditary . Although I don't have any pain or discomfort yet, I don't like the way my leg looks. This has given me a complex because I am ashamed to wear sandals. I've heard a lot of folk methods to cope with this problem. I think that's where I'll start. I haven’t thought about surgery in Moscow clinics yet, because I’m afraid of such an intervention.
For me personally, the bunion is the biggest problem. I have already tried a variety of remedies, but nothing helped me. As a result, I came to the conclusion that not a single remedy would help me remove the bone. For now, I limit myself to sea salt baths and foot massages, which at least a little soothe my pain. The bunion is especially aggravated in cases where I walk for a long time or use high-heeled shoes. But, I think, if the disease continues to develop more and more, I’m going to go for surgery at one of the clinics in Moscow.
There is a moment in many people's lives when they discover a bone on their foot. And in this regard, the question of interest to them is how to remove a bone on a finger. If you find yourself in a similar situation, then the first thing you need to do is visit a doctor. It is very important to start treatment as early as possible, since then it will be possible to achieve positive results in a short time.
Treatment in the early stages comes down to conservative therapy . At the same time, if the disease progresses for a long time, then often there is no improvement. In such cases, only surgery can help. Today, specialists have many effective methods at their disposal, including resection arthroplasty, arthrodesis, and endoprosthetics. In addition to this, the method of removing bunions with a laser, which is offered by many clinics, has proven itself well.

I did it for free under my insurance policy and was referred by an orthopedist, but at the hospital the doctors directly called it a dachshund. This was a few years ago, I think prices have increased now. So it’s formally free, but in reality they ask for decent money. Plus, after the operation you are completely immobilized - “without both legs”, the nannies really want to get paid for each “removal” of the vessel, calculate the daily “tariff” and the final amount., if I spent 10 days in the hospital. Surgeons asked for approximately half or 2/3 of the cost at CITO, where the operation is paid. And about my result, read above. Now I would go only on the recommendation of a person for whom this operation was successful and he assessed it so no earlier than a year later. But according to recommendations, this is private, I think at least thirty thousand.
If you are sitting at home, think too: every full anesthesia hits you on the head: memory decreases - is it necessary twice??

The operation was performed under local anesthesia, which lasted for another 8-9 hours. After that, one “analgesic” tablet helped. During this operation, metal elements are not inserted, the bone is cut down, and two cuts less than a centimeter are made - on the thumb and above the bump on the bone. Then they bandage the finger and the beginning of the foot tightly, moving the finger away from the foot. It is believed that the incisions should heal, bringing the finger into a straight position. I have transverse flat feet. How much this operation will help the matter, I don’t know. But I walked for the last year, hobbling from pain in my bones. Costs CAD 3,250 per leg. I can walk in a special slipper 3 days after the operation. But the thought worries me: will everything be fixed in the desired position without knitting needles and shunts?
Svetlana, please share the address of the hospital where your operation took place, the name, names of the doctors you recommend contacting and the amount that was announced to you personally for the operation. Thank you in advance!
I LIVE IN PETROZAVODSK. Two years ago, the highly publicized Petrozavodsk orthopedist Viktor Yugenovich Kim had an operation to remove the bones (which were not large at all, did not hurt, but sometimes got in the way in narrow shoes.). DON'T THINK OF REPEATING! For the first 6-7 months everything seemed to be fine, I walked with insoles and without heels, but today I am a cripple. In winter it’s even simpler - you can buy larger shoes and insert orthopedic insoles, but in summer what should you do? They simply don’t fit into shoes (not to mention sandals!)! All that remains are sneakers, moccasins, etc. Forget about heels! And one more thing: the fingers become much shorter, unsightly. those. My pride before the operation, my legs, is now in the past. The gait has changed, because Every step is painful. I tried to contact Kim with problems, it was useless! He really doesn’t like the latter and starts openly kicking me out of the office, which horrifies me. Think a hundred times before contacting him, there may be other types of operations. I hear a lot of bad reviews about Kim’s method all the time, especially in orthopedic salons in the city, without which I can’t live now. Ordinary business on people's health.

Hello! I also live in Petrozavodsk, so I decided to have an operation too, and made an appointment for December, although not with Kim, although he had always been recommended before, but at the Republican Hospital. So I decided to read the reviews.. I came across yours..((tell me, 3 years have passed since you were operated on, what do you think about all this now, would you start having surgery now, etc. what would you recommend.

I am 25 years old, transverse flatfoot on both legs. The operation took 2 weeks. back (04/15/09) on the left leg. The Shede-Lyabakh operation was performed at the Kiev Military Clinical Hospital, was discharged on the 6th day after the operation, yesterday the stitches were removed. No plaster, a 5-6 cm stitch on the side along the foot. My leg hurt for 3-4 days after the operation, but I managed without painkillers. The doctors are experienced, but real military men, they don’t mess around - they said goodbye and just told us in general terms. But it’s not expensive - 3 thousand UAH (about 15 thousand rubles) for one leg, this includes surgery, anesthesia, accommodation with meals, and IV injections.
Now I’m at home, I feel good, I’m starting to step back on my heels little by little. doctors promise that in a couple of weeks I will be walking
Bone tissue begins to grow, which leads to an increase in the size of the foot. Doctors will not tell you what will happen to you after the operation 2-3 years later. They are only responsible for you while you are in the hospital. My surgery was considered cosmetic and successful. But after that it is necessary to do special exercises while overcoming the pain, otherwise everything will become overgrown and the thumb will not be mobile. Better do exercises and wear arch supports. Listen to what everyone is saying about painkillers - these are drugs, they just won’t be prescribed to anyone. The operation itself is really painless, but then you turn from a healthy person into a seriously wounded one. If I had known, I would never have done this operation. Before it, of course, the bones hurt, and after that they began to hurt even more.
From: Riga, Zadvinye
I came across information that there are two types of operations for this problem:
*one, the most common, is when the bone is removed. After it there is a long rehabilitation period in a cast and pain.
*But there is an alternative - when they don’t chisel anything, but change the attachment points of some muscles in the foot. After surgery, the muscles are pulled in the opposite direction and the bone is smoothed out.
I won't tell you more details.
I know this from the words of a woman who performed operations of the second type on both nagas at once in Ukraine. I was very pleased with the result.
Although the rehabilitation period was also quite painful, according to her.
Ulla, the spacer is good, but it doesn’t hurt me, I need to cleanly remove the excess ho - after all, I can’t find wide shoes to fit my paw, and the shoes deteriorate quickly - the appearance really suffers. I love moccasins - and they are all leather, soft, within 2 months they become nothing - just outwardly such bast shoes
From: Mezciems, Kaivas
here about this operation on tendons and muscles.
I went for a consultation with an orthopedist with the same problem. He recommended surgery - they cut the ligaments, he said everything would be great! BUT! 6 weeks of cast! I asked, exactly 6. It turned out that everything is individual, maybe 8. I don’t have this time, so I refused the operation for now. Then I talked to my family doctor, who said that I needed to find out whether I was distributing the load on my foot correctly. If I walk incorrectly, then some time after the operation the bone may come out again. I recommended picking up arch supports for now. And so, I heard that a woman did it on 2 legs - she was happy with one, but not with the other leg
and what are the therapeutic methods of treatment? What should be done? And it turns out that if the load is distributed incorrectly, then after the operation a bone will appear again after a while? Is there any point in doing it then?
So for now I decided for myself - not to do it, to wait. If anyone is interested, I can give the coordinates of the company where this load is determined.
The family recommended wrapping a piece of fur around the bone - it won’t help, but it won’t hurt
It is also a hereditary disease. If your mother has a bone, then most likely you will have one too.
Can I have the coordinates, I want to go, what will they tell me?. In general, it seems that my grandmother developed a hereditary condition early, my mother developed it after 45, and mine developed it too early. The truth is that it’s not too big yet; it’s probably worth doing something about..
Ehh... actually, I also suffer from this problem. As for the hereditary factor - yes, we all have it on the female side, both our grandmother and our mother, and it is very pronounced; lately it has become difficult for my mother to walk
And if recently this bone did not bother me so much (although I can hardly wear shoes with heels), it just stuck out, but now for several months it began to ache, especially when walking for a long time, and in any shoes, even without heels
One of the folk remedies I know is to apply an iodine mesh to the bone.
This probably won't reduce the "problem", but they say it relieves tension in the bunion area and fatigue after a day of walking.
Our life is what our thoughts turn it into. (c)
I used to do an iodine mesh before, then I still have to massage the bone until it hurts. It turns out that growth slows down and there is no pain. But now I’ve gotten lazy, it looks like I need to do it again..
Add another cabbage leaf. To be honest, the only thing that saves me is comfortable, soft shoes without heels.
So, by phone - I’ll find it, voice it, put it somewhere, I can’t find it
Iodine mesh and spacers will probably help if there was no bone, but it began to grow over time.
Like Katarina, I always had it and inherited it. I once had my feet checked, yes, they recommend wearing insoles, because... the load is distributed incorrectly, but this is solely for comfort + in order to insert this insole you also need to choose wider shoes
There is an orthopedic shoe store on Brivibas opposite Elkor, even the models are cute, sports style (at least in the window)
Spacers, insoles, cabbage leaves, iodine nets, all this can be tried at the initial stage. But if the problem is significant, then these methods will not help much.
I tried wearing spacers myself. I just rubbed my feet. Not with them, of course, but with shoes.
Insoles are not a cheap pleasure. Personally selected ones cost 17Ls 3 years ago. They are glued to the main insole, distribute the load correctly, and your legs get less tired. BUT they are re-glued only a few times, then they begin to slide. That is, you really need a lot of them. Plus you will have to buy shoes a size larger.
Cabbage leaf only relieves inflammation, and it definitely doesn’t make the bone smaller.
Has anyone had surgery to remove a bunion on their big toe? Please share what method you used to operate on. And what is the prognosis now? How are you feeling?
They say they grow up again.
Mom had surgery. But she has a bad case. The entire foot is deformed.
My foot didn’t hurt less.
I don’t see the point, it is formed from transverse flat feet, if the cause is not treated, then what is the point of removing the effect..
It hurts so much! Then you can’t find the right shoes, your feet are wider and the bone on top rubs. And it’s just aesthetically not good.
What, there are no people here who would undergo surgery?
An employee did it for me, it took a month to recover, it helps, only after that it is necessary to treat flat feet - make custom insoles, etc.
It’s better to look for special sites on this topic, there are internet sites there and everyone discusses doctors and the details of the operation in detail, I don’t know which sites, but they are definitely there
My mother had it done in the 70s. I really didn’t ask how long she was in the hospital, but as long as I remember, she didn’t wear any insoles, nor did she wear heels. The bumps didn’t grow anymore.
I have it too, on both legs, but it’s not very big yet, although noticeable. Finding shoes is a problem. And it hurts so much, sometimes that it’s impossible to walk. I’m also starting to be interested in this issue.
If the bones are large, surgery is necessary! On June 25, I’m going to the hospital for surgery, and I have to choose not a clinic, but a doctor who has three specializations at the same time: a surgeon, an orthopedic surgeon, and a traumatologist.
Girls, please tell me. a clinic with a good specialist, but surgery is also necessary.
I had surgery this summer. Two months have passed and my leg continues to hurt. Shoes are hard to wear. I wear slippers at work.
If the operation is performed incorrectly, which often happens with us, the bones will grow back.

This summer, I had an operation, a nurse myself. The operation is not complicated, the rehabilitation is long, for 21 days it is unacceptable to stand on the foot and bend the toes. Afterwards, wear orthopedic insoles for a year, and everything will be fine.
Where did you do it!?
But they say it’s not advisable to do it in the summer! My surgery is scheduled for July 2nd (
Someone once filled me with all sorts of fears about an operation, and I decided for myself that it was better to live with such legs than to become disabled! But then my opinion changed, a friend had surgery, plus a lot of positive reviews on the forums! I've made up my mind! Now I am 29 years old, on December 11, 2013 I had surgery under spinal anesthesia on both feet, the next day after the operation I was already going to the toilet on my own in special orthopedic shoes and with the help of crutches! 3 days after the operation I was discharged, I walked along the corridors of the hospital without crutches, slightly holding on to the wall, and at home without crutches either! A month and a half of rehabilitation, I had to wear orthopedic shoes and insoles! I could walk, but the doctor forbade putting weight on my feet and allowed me to walk only when needed! The most difficult thing was the first two weeks, when the bandages were on my feet, everything under the bandages itched and it was hot) After a month and a half, you can throw away your orthopedic shoes :) but you still have to wear insoles and arch supports for three months! When my three months have passed, they will put me on heels up to 8 cm, or again, walk in insoles if they have solid soles! I don’t know what’s next yet! Overall, I'm already pleased with the result. It's nice to look at the legs! I am very glad that I decided and did it! The operation on both feet cost me 80,000 in Moscow, plus orthopedic shoes 4,400, plus insoles and arch supports 4,000
For the last two years, I began to suffer from pain in a bone in my right leg due to the fault of one of our pseudo-surgeons. The regional clinic took pictures of both feet. The deformation of the fingers is severe. I was put on a waiting list for surgery, but so far only for my right foot. How to decide on it? Very scary. The age is already quite high.
Where did you have the operation and with which doctor? My feet hurt terribly, I have problems with shoes, I’m no longer a girl and it’s very scary.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had bones on my feet, since I was about 10 years old! Only over time they became larger and larger, and the thumb also became deformed to the side! I can’t say that it hurt a lot, sometimes when I walked in tight shoes! I couldn’t stay in heels for more than an hour, but that was on holidays 🙂 in normal life I wore shoes with solid soles, more often I wore sneakers. The problem was getting shoes! I had such a terrible complex! Naturally, not every store could start fitting, especially in expensive ones, where the seller stands over his soul and looks at the ugly legs! (I thought so)
Please write where you had the operation and with which doctor?
I had an operation on myself, removed a bunion (valgus) and I really want to share my joy with everyone!
I have all the flat feet that there are, by nature, plus 2 pregnancies and until I was 35 years old, I wore heels from morning to evening 7 days a week, in general my legs were completely destroyed, it all ended with Morton’s neuroma with the wildest pain from which you lose consciousness and terrible deformation . For as long as I can remember, these bones have been stupid. I hated them, no matter what I tried, it was all a scam, everything! Morton was cut out in Moscow on one leg; the other did not hurt.
But I decided to remove the deformation, began to find out what and how, and realized that in Russia no one does it using modern technology like in Europe. I saved up some money and wanted to go to Europe (since Moscow does not have such technologies and equipment), but then, quite by accident, I discovered a certain Dedov SY on the website. I read that it is very similar to the latest European technologies. I called the clinic and the girl at the reception told me that yes, we have ***** operations and equipment specially and the doctor is magical. I didn’t believe it at first, I think it’s another scam, but I found out how much it costs and they told me it was about $3,000. Well, it looks quite similar to European prices. I think okay, I’ll go and it won’t get any worse.
She came sitting young!! Dear doctor!! (witty, swears within the bounds of decency, after 59 where Morton was cut out, just an angel!) (I’ll say right away from the very call and until I started walking I was still looking for a divorce, a Russian habit). In general, at first there was no trust at first sight, but after talking, he told me a lot of interesting things, and in general I made up my mind. True, the cost of the operation increased to 6,000 American rubles! But I was reassured by the fact that a trip to Europe, especially with my husband, surgery and care would have cost me 10.
Everything went great, in fact, no severe pain or anything. The main thing is to listen to the doctor, very carefully. He did it very carefully, starting from the bones (they sawed 4 pieces) and ending with 4 stitches (he even did something similar to plastic surgery on 1 leg, because there was excess skin there, the lump was huge).
After 3 days I was slowly walking around in special boots (after 3 weeks I went to the sea in them and rode a scooter there, so as not to put stress on my legs, my friend joked when they asked her what was wrong with me - a former ballerina, she treats my legs). The sea is generally favorable, everything heals quickly and improves immunity. After 5 weeks I switched to orthopedic shoes, I can’t stop looking at my beautiful feet! Now exactly half a year has passed since the day of the operation, I literally started running after 3 months, although the doctor said after five, but these children...
In general, everyone who doubts whether to do it or not to do it! I suffered for several years, I was embarrassed about my feet, I couldn’t buy nice shoes, and now I regret that I didn’t have the operation earlier, all the problems disappeared! And the doctor himself, although very young, is very professional! I'm happy!
Yes and most importantly!! Then I got sick with Morton’s neuroma on my second leg and I went to the CITO on Voikovskaya (since it was there that the diagnosis was confirmed for the first time; they had a good MRI description). So, while I was sitting in line, I met a pretty young girl, and she had an operation at this CITO, and gave 130 thousand rubles, I mean. At first I was upset, but after she showed me her legs, I understood what I was paying for, and I feel sorry for the girl - not all the bones were removed. There may, of course, be an exception. The doctor who looked at me at CITO said that everything was done very well for me and the technology was excellent, but doctors don’t like to praise competitors! But I won’t operate on a neuroma in a cytology department; the service they provided reminded me very much of hospital No. 59 :) although it’s not cheap
Has anyone had surgery to remove a bunion on their big toe? Please share what method you used to operate on. And what is the prognosis now? How do you feel
I had this operation done, I recommend not to think twice and not wait for your fingers to touch each other. Less change = less injury, you'll get going faster. They desquamated the head of the joint, it was difficult for a month, then it got easier. I was just happy that I got rid of this “nightmare”. My legs are straight, my shoes are beautiful and I wear heels. Now they are fastened with a knitting needle, more securely. For 11 years, nothing has grown in the same place. The next fingers bent, after the thumb. I had an operation, straightened it, and today the needles were taken out. Who did it, how long does rehabilitation last, when you can walk freely?
