What ARE BUNIONS?

Bunions are bony bumps that form on the joint at the base of your big toe. They occur when the big toe pushes against the next toe, causing the joint to protrude. Over time, the misalignment can lead to pain, swelling, and difficulty wearing shoes. Bunions are often a result of genetics, improper footwear, or arthritis.

What are the Symptoms of BUNIONS?

The symptoms of bunions can range from mild discomfort to severe pain, and include:

► A visible bump on the side of the big toe joint

►Swelling, redness, and soreness around the joint

► Pain that worsens with walking or wearing tight shoes

►Limited movement in the big toe

How Orthotics May Help Alleviate These Symptoms

Orthotics for bunions can help realign the foot, reducing pressure on the big toe joint. By cushioning the affected area and promoting proper weight distribution, orthotics minimize pain and slow the progression of the bunion. Orthotic support can also relieve stress on the surrounding toes, improving overall foot function and comfort.
