Bunions

The causes of Bunions

Bunions are one of those issues that can make life a little bit harder than it should be. The causes of bunions are usually genetic/ hereditary but can be associated with joint issues. No matter how you got your bunion, it can leave you with chronic pain movement and reduced movement.
Bunions are more common in females and the chances of having a bunion increases with age. Extra stress is put on the ball of the foot because of the bunion and this can lead to metatarsalgia pain under the heads of the metatarsal bones.
Treatment can include bunion pads, orthotics, insoles, foot braces, and toe spacers.
