Weil Osteotomy

June 12th, 2010 by admin

The Weil Osteotomy is a operation performed on the forefoot bones in the forefoot. The actual operation reduces the length of the actual metatarsal, therefore alleviates stress underneath the bone on the plantar surface on the foot as well as alters the position of the digits. This can be helpful for those with soreness in the bottom of the feet along with people that have digital problems including hammer digits, as the operation will straighten the digit. As the forefoot bones is known as a walking and running structure, the actual recovery from your procedure is often lengthy and a lot of those who have the surgery don’t correctly follow the usual post surgery instructions leading to a high side-effect rate.
