Let’s face it, we are often more like our parents than sometimes we wish to be, especially when it come to the shape and architectural makeup of our feet. This can especially be true when it comes to the formation of bunion deformities.
A bunion typically appears as a large and painful bump on the side of the great toe which is often exaggerated by the big toe leaning towards the second toe. If you suffer from this kind of deformity you are not alone, as this can affect up to 30% of adults. But what really causes this deformity and is there anything that can be done to change it for the better?
