Postoperative of a bunion surgery with osteotomy technique

Once the surgery is completed, the medical team will check that your medical controls are positive and you will be discharged from the hospital. Being a minimally invasive surgery, you do not need to stay hospitalized.

You will want to avoid putting your foot down for 3 to 6 weeks, although the swelling will subside before week 10.

Full recovery from the bunion surgery occurs 1 year after surgery and long-term results are excellent.

In order to help you with the recovery process, your doctor will recommend you physiotherapy or not (some patients may need it, but this is not a general recommendation for all patients).

Rehabilitation sessions are not included in the price of the surgery, since each patient requires a specific recovery. However, if you are a patient of Operarme you can enjoy our rehabilitation packs at a preferential price. If you want more information, do not hesitate to contact our patient service team.
