Bunion Foot Treatment
What is a Bunion?
A foot bunion is a bone that forms on the outside joint of the big toe. This is from years of pressure on the joints and foot where eventually the toe joint gets out of alignment. This happens slowly as you age and eventually you will notice wearing shoes may be uncomfortable. Symptoms may include lumpy exterior and bulging bone. For some it may hurt and for others you may live with it without noticing pain.
Treatment for Bunions
Taking care of your feet when you first notice you have a bunion is very important. That means going to the doctor for checkup, wearing protective orthopedic gear, and wearing more comfortable shoes. When there are significant signals that this may get worse such as pain, the doctor will recommend surgery. You may need surgery to correct your foot alignment and alleviate the pain.
