Bunions (Hallux Valgus)
A deformity that appears at the toe side of the foot, giving it a 'swollen-like' appearance. This is an internal disorder, as it affects the bone structure, rather than the skin. Bunions happen from long-term problems, ranging from birth deformities to wearing small or restrictive shoes.
APPEARANCE
A swollen-looking lump that bends the toe depending on its severity. It protrudes greatly from the foot, which is clear and obvious to see.
CAUSES
Bunions, as mentioned before, is an 'internal' injury, which is typically caused by dislocation and deformity, usually from wearing restrictive shoes like high heels for long periods of time. Another cause can also be arthritic or ligament issues, such as birth or natural bone enlargement.
DOES IT AFFECT THE PROCEDURE?
It doesn't affect the toenails, but it can affect pedicure or any foot massage, due to pain and limitations with certain massage techniques. Pedicures and foot massages could still go ahead, but with a few cautions, such as avoiding the bunion area during massage, depending on the severity of this.
POSSIBLE TREATMENTS/ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
With bone deformities, surgery is the best possible way to get rid of the bunion permanently. If not, there are other less costly ways to treat it. Bunion Pads are a common product used to protect bunions and the foot from further pressure and dislocation.
