Bunion Surgery Recovery Time Statistics
Bunion surgery typically requires 6-8 weeks for initial recovery, with full recovery taking around 4-6 months on average.
In this post, we will explore the recovery timeline and potential challenges associated with bunion surgery. With a detailed look at key statistics, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of what to expect during the post-operative period. From the likelihood of full functionality restoration to the duration of swelling and the need for additional interventions, we will shed light on the journey towards recovery following bunion surgery.
