Patients routinely present to the office with a painful second toe (especially on the bottom of the joint) not realizing the cause of the pain or deformity.  The toe is typically resting higher then the others and the patients complain that the toe is starting to “pop” up in the air.

Below is an example of a bunion correction and relocation of the 2nd toe that is 6 weeks post surgery.  She was back to work and in a regular shoe at this point functioning well with no pain.
