Bunion can be treated without obvious symptoms, but when there are symptoms or when it affects normal life, general treatment such as functional exercises, wearing orthotics, surgery, etc. can be done.
1. General treatment: avoid wearing crowded shoes and high-heeled shoes, wear loose shoes or place soft cushions inside the shoes, and carry out functional exercises for the internal muscles of the foot to help reduce pain and alleviate the pressure on the soles of the feet.
2. Orthotics: Used for patients whose symptoms are not obvious in the early stage or whose symptoms are mild, wearing orthotics or orthopedic braces can help to correct the bad posture.
3. Surgical treatment: for those who have severe bunion with obvious pain, which seriously affects the normal life, bone resection, osteotomy and orthopedic surgery or artificial joint replacement are feasible.
Patients with bunion should be treated as early as possible under the guidance of doctors.
