Summary

The investigators hypothesize that cyclooxygenas-II-selective inhibitors (Coxibs) provide a better patients assessed overall satisfaction when used for pain management after elective hallux valgus surgery as compared to traditional Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Detailed description

The aim of the present study is to compare patients' satisfaction with pain medication during the first 7 first postoperative days following elective hallux valgus surgery in general anaesthesia between etoricoxib and diclofenac in a prospective randomised double-blind study design.
