Bunions aren’t just from high heels.
While shoes can make them worse, bunions are often caused by genetics and foot structure.
Common Myths:
Myth: Only women get bunions.
Fact: Men can develop them too, especially if they have a flat or flexible foot type.
Treatment Options:
Non-surgical: Padding, orthotics, shoe changes, anti-inflammatory medications.
Surgical: Recommended for pain that persists despite conservative care. Today’s minimally invasive techniques mean smaller incisions, less downtime, and better outcomes.
Early evaluation is key – catching changes before they become severe can delay or prevent surgery.
