Bunions

Bunions, also known as hallux valgus, are bony protrusions that form at the base of the big toe, caused by misalignment of the toe joint. This condition often results from genetic factors, wearing tight footwear, or arthritis. Bunions can lead to discomfort, pain, and difficulty in finding appropriate footwear, impacting mobility and daily activities.
