Fortunately, no. Most cases of bunions do not end up requiring surgery, unless they have become severe enough to significantly impact your daily life activities, or are caused by an underlying deformity, which is usually hereditary. Our specialists at New York Foot Experts will consult with you about conservative treatment options, and if surgery is an option that’s right for you, we can discuss that. For more information, call us today or book an appointment online. We have convenient locations to serve you in New York City.
