BUNIONS
Bunions can make walking, wearing shoes, and even standing for long periods uncomfortable. At Fulshear Foot & Ankle, Dr. Kunal Amin and Dr. Yumna Siddiqui provide expert, personalized care to help relieve pain and prevent bunions from worsening. Whether you need conservative management or advanced treatment options, we’re here to help you stay active and pain-free.
What ARE BUNIONS?
A bunion is a bony bump that develops at the base of the big toe, caused by misalignment of the joint. Over time, the toe drifts inward toward the others, creating a painful and often inflamed protrusion. Bunions can develop due to genetics, improper footwear, arthritis, or structural foot imbalances. Without treatment, bunions can worsen, leading to chronic pain, stiffness, and difficulty walking.
Symptoms of Bunions
Bunions progress over time, and symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe pain. If left untreated, they can lead to additional foot problems, including hammertoes and joint damage.
- A visible bump on the side of the big toe
- Redness, swelling, or tenderness around the joint
- Pain when walking or wearing shoes
- Stiffness and reduced mobility in the big toe
- Development of corns or calluses due to toe misalignment
