Bunions are a common but often painful foot condition that can significantly impact mobility and quality of life. While conservative treatments, such as wearing appropriate footwear, using bunion protectors, and performing toe exercises, can provide relief and slow the progression of the condition, in severe cases, surgery may be necessary. The key to managing bunions is early intervention and ongoing care to prevent them from worsening. By taking proactive steps, you can minimize discomfort, maintain foot health, and enjoy an active lifestyle.
