What are Bunions?
A Bunion or, according to scientific terminology, Hallux Valgus, is a deformity that begins at the base of the great toe, in the metatarsophalangeal joint, which in turn results to the enlargement of the first metatarsal head. This enlargement of the joint’s head results in the gradual displacement of the big toe, which gradually loses its alignment and deviates towards the second and the third toe, even at a point of toe overlap. Bunion is often followed by calluses, swelling, inflammation, severe joint pain, discomfort and pressure when walking.
Causes and Risk Factors of Bunions
There is a high risk of developing a bunion, since it’s usually caused by uneven distribution of weight in the joints and tendons of the foot, delivering more pressure to the great toe. At the same time, narrow and high-heeled shoes can play an important role, for the exact same reason. However, its main primary cause seems to be the combination of all secondary factors with hereditary predisposition.
