The operation is done as a day case, but come prepared in case you need to stay overnight.
The operation is performed under general anaesthetic and nerve block (which means numbing the nerves of the foot).
The operation involves one incision over the base of the big toe. The abnormal extra bone around the joint is trimmed to free the joint. Half of the joint is removed and replaced by a metal button-shaped prosthesis.
You see the physiotherapist after or before your operation and they give you crutches if needed.
