Bunion of Foot
A bunion of the foot is a common condition that affects the joint at the base of the big toe. It is characterized by a bony bump that forms on the side of the foot, causing the big toe to lean towards the other toes. Bunions may be caused by family genetics, wearing tight or narrow shoes, or by a structural defect in the foot. Other contributing factors include arthritis, foot injuries, and certain medical conditions.
Symptoms
Common symptoms of bunions include: pain, swelling, difficulty with walking or wearing certain type of shoes, and even toe dislocation.
Treatment Options
Treatment options from bunions range from conservative measures, such as wearing wider shoes, padding, or orthotics to more invasive interventions, such as surgical realignment of the big toe joint. Early intervention is key to managing bunions and preventing further complications. Seeking medical attention and adopting appropriate preventative measures can alleviate pain and improve mobility for individuals with this condition.
Bunionette of Foot
Bunionette, also known as a Tailor’s bunion or a bunion of the pinky toe, is a common foot condition characterized by a bony bump on the outer edge of the foot near the base of the fifth toe. It occurs when the fifth metatarsal bone becomes misaligned, leading to the protrusion of the bone and the development of a painful bump. This condition may be caused by wearing tight shoes, genetic factors or certain foot abnormalities.
Symptoms
Can cause discomfort, swelling, redness, and difficulty wearing shoes, especially those shoes with a narrow toe box.
Treatment Options
Treatment options for bunionettes include: wearing wide-toe or cushioned shoes, using orthotic devices, applying ice packs, taking over-the-counter pain relievers, and in severe cases, undergoing surgery to realign the bone. Early intervention and appropriate treatment can alleviate the symptoms and prevent further complications associated with bunionettes.
Calcaneal Spurs
A calcaneal spur, also known as a heel spur, is a condition characterized by the formation of a bony projection on the underside or the backside of the heel bone. This often develops in response to chronic inflammation caused by plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendinitis, a common foot condition. The spurs can vary in size and shape, and are usually not visible to the naked eye.
Symptoms
Calcaneal spurs can cause intense pain and discomfort, especially while walking or standing for long periods. Individuals with this condition often experience sharp, stabbing pain in the heel area, which can radiate to other parts of the foot. The pain is typically worse in the morning or after periods of rest.
Treatment
Treatment options for calcaneal spurs include rest, stretching, and strengthening exercises, orthotic devices, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain management. In severe cases, corticosteroid injections or surgery may be necessary. It is important to see proper medical evaluation and guidance for proper diagnosis and treatment of calcaneal spurs to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.

Dr. Bishop and his team got me in last minute after my referral got lost between my PCP and their office. The front desk was polite and helpful. Their paperwork was minimal. X rays were quick and waiting time in the room was minimal before Dr. Bishop came in. He explained everything clearly and have me a copy of all of his recommendations before asking me to schedule a follow-up visit.
Dr. Bishop and the staff at Cascade Orthopedics have been professional, courteous, and the surgery that I just had went extremely well. I couldn’t ask for better results.
Dr. Cary Sanders is a very knowledgeable and compassionate doctor. He explains things very well. I highly recommend him. The office staff is very friendly and helpful also. Ben Baird is also top notch and has given me numerous cortisone and lubricant injections on my knee. Both my wife and I have seen Dr. Bishop and he has our highest recommendation also.
Dr. Sanders has been seeing me regarding my knee for the past 4 years. After all the years of dealing with knee pain and injection shots, it has been agreed that it is time to get a knee replacement. Dr. Sanders and his staff are incredible.
Everyone was great. Hardly any wait time. The doctor was very knowledgeable and drew a picture of what’s going on in my elbow. Received a shot, it’s feeling better already. Definitely refer anyone that needs an orthopedic doctor.
My little guy got the best care here after breaking his arm on the trampoline. We seen Benjamin Baird, PA, and were impressed with his genuine interest and kid approved humor. We hope we aren’t back anytime soon, but if there are any more breaks, we’d choose Cascade again.
Dr. Brandon Bishop and the Team at Cascade Orthopedic were exceptional to work with. From the first appointment, to my surgery and to the last appointment, they treated me with compassion and professionalism. I have recommended Dr. Bishop to my friends and will continue to recommend him.
Dr. Sanders, from Cascade Orthopedic Specialists, did a much needed right kbee replacement for me in October 31, 2024. I received top level care from their staff, both pre-op and post-op. Hospital care and treatment at Mercy was excellent. Rehab at Theropy Plus was painful for the first two weeks, but healing came quickly. I now have great range of motion and living pain free with my new knee. Thank you, everyone.
