Bunions can be both painful and unattractive for individuals that suffer from them. A bunion is an abnormal growth of the bone at the base of the big toe. The reasons that bunions appear could be genetic, due to arthritis conditions or the result of weak bones and joints. Taking action to correct these bunions in some way is a choice many people make. Cosmetic bunion surgery can help to remove the appearance of bunions on the feet. Jeff Rager, DPm at Loop Podiatry Foot & Ankle Center in Chicago, Illinois is equipped to help you with your bunions.

You will then talk to him about the options that you have including simply using specialized shoes to provide comfort and cosmetic bunion surgery. The surgery option can often be accomplished without leaving any scars. The surgery will be different for every individual, but is essentially the removal of the bump that exists.
