I have pain in my left big toe knuckle. I was told that it is a bunyon and it will continue to hurt and pull my big toe toward the next oe. What is a bunyon and its treatments? Thank You, Julie
The proper medical term for a bunion is Hallux valgus. This deformity can be hereditary or acquired through trauma or disease. Treatments can range from none to orthotics, padding, wider shoes to surgery.If you will do a search for bunion or hallux valgus you will be able to get more information than I can give in this space.Hope this helps.
