Dr. Timothy Young Talks About Anesthesia and Bunion Surgery
We have the Anesthesia team come to our certified surgical suite and start the IV, make you comfortable and then you are asleep. While you are asleep we administer the local anesthetic. You don’t feel the Injection because you are sleeping and when you wake up after the procedure, your foot is numb and you have no pain. The local anesthetic can last for 24 hours or longer. This is excellent for the initial post procedure pain control.
If you have questions about Anesthesia and bunion surgery or bunion surgery itself. Please feel free to contact myself, Dr. Timothy Young or my partner, Dr. Brandon Nelson. Give us a call at 425-391-8666 or make an appointment online today.
