What are Bunions?
A bunion is a bony bump that forms at the base of the big toe, where the toe meets the foot. This condition develops when the joint begins to misalign, causing the big toe to lean toward the other toes. Over time, the misalignment can lead to swelling, inflammation, and persistent pain. Bunions may be influenced by genetic factors, improper footwear, or arthritis, and can worsen if left untreated.
Common Symptoms of Bunions
- Pain and tenderness around the joint
- Swelling and inflammation
- Redness or soreness at the base of the big toe
- Restricted movement in the big toe
- Corns or calluses where the first and second toes overlap
How We Treat Bunions
At Feet First Foot Care, treatment for bunions begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine the severity and contributing factors of your condition. For mild to moderate cases, we may recommend conservative management—including custom orthotics, targeted physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications—to alleviate discomfort and slow progression. In cases where pain and deformity persist, innovative solutions such as PinPointe laser therapy and Remy Laser play a role in minimizing inflammation and preparing the affected area for potential corrective procedures. Our treatment approach is designed to not only relieve symptoms but also to address the underlying biomechanical imbalances to promote long-term foot health.
