My feet always hurt and a friend told me that it may be due to my bunion. What are they and how can I treat them? – Leena, 23 PDF Print E-mail

Bunions occur when there is an enlargement of the bone or tissue around the joint at the base of your big toe. As a result, your big toe turns inward towards the second toe, leading to the swelling of the tissues surrounding the joint. Sometimes, a bunion might even develop near your small toe (called a “bunionette”).




The bump of the bunion may result in blisters around the area and pain when you walk. Although it has been widely speculated that bunions are caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes, it is actually a genetic abnormality and footwear like high heels can worsen the condition.

Bunions can be treated by:
  • Changing the type of shoes you wear. Try to avoid wearing pointy-toed heels too often and wear flats or round toed shoes to give your bunion some breathing space.
  • Using orthotic devices like gelled toe spacers, bunion/toes separators, bunion regulators, bunion splints and bunion cushions for support.
  • Surgery as the last resort.
You can refer to foot specialists such as Schein Orthopaedics Malaysia and Family Podiatry Centre for the best way to treat your problem.
