What is tendinopathy?

Tendinopathy refers to a condition that affects the tendons, which are the strong, fibrous cords that attach muscles to bones. While the term tendinopathy is often used interchangeably with tendinitis (inflammation of the tendon), it more broadly encompasses both acute and chronic tendon issues, including tendinosis, which involves tendon degeneration without significant inflammation.

What to expect during and after minimally invasive bunion surgery

Bunions are a common foot condition where the big toe pushes against the adjacent toes, leading to a painful, bony bump on the side of the foot. For many individuals, bunions can cause discomfort, swelling, and make everyday activities challenging. Minimally invasive bunion surgery is a modern, less invasive option designed to correct this deformity with smaller incisions, less tissue disruption, and a potentially quicker recovery time. If you're considering this procedure, understanding what to expect before, during, and after the surgery can help you feel more confident and prepared.
