Introduction
 Foot Surgery involves a range of surgeries pertaining
to particular issues. Some of the surgeries usually
done are
Bunion 1 - Bunions are primarily hereditary conditions
often found in women which are primarily non-alignment
of the bones with the big toe moving towards the second
toe. The bump, on the inner side of the foot increases
in size. Different surgical options are offered by Apollo
Hospitals to treat bunions.
Hammertoes - A deformed, contracted toe is often called
hammertoes. A hammertoe generally occurs on one or more
locations on a toe. Often a surgery is an option of
getting rid of hammertoes.
Toe Shortening - In certain cases one or two toes are
longer than the other toes. This often results in painful
corns being developed on the tip of a toe. This problem
can be surgically treated.
Bone Spurs - Bone spurs occur due to change in pressure
or arthritic change. The different types of bone spurs
are toe spur, heel spur and arch spur. This too can
be surgically treated.
Calluses - Calluses are thick dead tissues on the outer
layer of the skin. Calluses are located on the heels
of the feet. This too is caused by pressure. Surgery
helps in getting rid of calluses.
Neuroma - Thickness, irritation, burning and numbness
on the ball of the foot often leads to severe pain.
Surgical procedure involves removal of the involved
nerve growth.
