Bunions
The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons state that most bunions can be treated without surgery and that prevention is always the best medicine. To minimize your chances of developing a bunion never force your foot into a shoe that doesn’t fit!

General Information

If the joint that connects your big toe to your foot has a swollen, sore bump, you may have a bunion. More than half of the women in America have bunions, a common deformity often blamed on wearing tight, narrow shoes, and high heels.

Nine out of ten bunions happen to women.

Nine out of ten women wear shoes that are too small.

With a bunion, the base of your big toe (metatarsophalangeal joint) gets larger and sticks out. The skin over it may be red and tender. Wearing any type of shoe may be painful. This joint flexes with every step you take. The bigger your bunion gets, the more it hurts to walk. Bursitis may set in. Your big toe may angle toward your second toe, or even move all the way under it. The skin on the bottom of your foot may become thicker and painful. Pressure from your big toe may force your second toe out of alignment, sometimes overlapping your third toe. In advanced stages your foot may look grotesque and it may be difficult to walk. Your pain may become chronic and you may develop arthritis.

Treatments

  • Custom-made orthotics can re-balance the foot and overcome the hereditary component of bunion formation.
  • Choose shoes that conform to the shape of your feet - shoes with wide insteps, broad toes and soft soles. Avoid tight, short, or sharply pointed shoes, and those with heels higher than 2 1/4 inches.
  • Wear shoes that are roomy enough to not put pressure on the trouble area. This should relieve most of your pain.
