Pain often results from shoe pressure or abnormal weight-bearing due to the deformity. It is important that your bunions be properly evaluated by a podiatrist. He or she may be able to relieve pain by medications or protecting the area from pressure. Special supports, called orthotics, by help correct abnormal gait and stop further deformity. Any existing deformity can not be corrected without surgery.
Many patients simply live with their bunions, taking care to wear orthotics and proper shoes.
Other patients require surgery. Many procedures exist for the correction of hallux abducto valgus. Your podiatric surgeon can recommend if surgery is right for you and, if so, select the appropriate procedure. In some cases it is related to mental stress and nervousness, especially in adolescents and young adults. Systemic diseases such as anemia and hyperthyroidism may be associated with hyperhydrosis.
