More about Bunions.

Despite popular belief, bunions are not just overgrowths of bone. A bunion is a deformity in which the big toe angles towards the second toe, leading to a protrusion on the inside of the foot. This deformity may also cause the development of other deformities such as crossover toe and hammertoes. To learn more, contact us at Dallas Direct Podiatry, and set up your consultation.

Symptoms of Bunions

Bunions can cause discomfort of debilitating pain. Symptoms of bunions may include:

• Protrusion on the inside of the foot

• Pain and inflammation of the big toe joint

• Difficulty fitting into shoes

• Sharp or radiating pain in the big toe

Treating the Condition

Conservative treatment is always recommended first. Conservative treatment for bunions may include pads, change of shoe gear, and orthotics. In cases where conservative treatment is unsuccessful, Dr. Tran may recommend surgical correction which can involve a combination of removing, realigning, and fixating the bone.
