What’s wrong with the protruding foot bunion and pain?

Patients with protruding big toe joints that produce pain are mostly patients with bunions. Due to the change in the line of force of the big toe, there is an imbalance in the force on the joint of the big toe when it is subjected to external forces, which can result in local muscle damage and strain, causing the patient to experience pain. In addition, bunions can also develop as localized bunions, which can also be painful. If the patient has chondromalacia or osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis in the bunion joint area, local muscle and ligament strains can cause pain, swelling, and interfere with activity when moving. In the treatment, the patient should reduce the weight-bearing activities, and can be given local closed injections or wear orthopedic braces, and can also perform acupuncture, moxibustion and other methods.
