Acute postoperative pain following bunionectomy is a transient, acute nociceptive and inflammatory pain state affecting the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous systems of the foot following surgical correction of hallux valgus Clinically, this condition is characterized by moderate-to-severe localized pain, edema, and mechanical hyperalgesia driven by surgical tissue disruption, local release of pro-inflammatory mediators, and peripheral and central sensitization
