Tailor's Bunion Treatment Process
TREATMENT PROCESS
This is my current treatment process for patients with a tailor's bunion.
- 1st Visit - Evaluate your condition, review x-rays, and perform a walking evaluation to determine the cause of your tailor's bunion pain.
- Orthotics - Orthotics are useful to stabilize the heel position, help with posture and reduce excess movement of the toe joint.
- Physical Therapy - Can be used to strengthen the foot and help with balance.
- Cortisone Injection - If there is an injury sometimes cortisone can be used to reduce the pain during the recovery period.
- Shockwave Therapy - This treatment can be used to stimulate your own body to get better faster.
