Beauty begins with the feet

From ancient times to the present, women’s pursuit of beauty has never ceased, not only to have the overall dignity, the details of the perfect is equally important. When the footwear culture is becoming more and more important in the field of fashion, having a foot disease, of course, can not, which means that from now on to say goodbye to the beautiful fashionable shoes, fashionable women can not stand? When it comes to the common foot disease – “bunion”, many patients may still feel strange, but the mention of its common name “big foot” we are very familiar with. This kind of foot disease is mostly caused by heredity, and acquired factors are also a major “culprit”. According to statistics, 80% of the patients with bunion are women, and the ratio of male patients is as high as 20:1. Experts point out that this has a great relationship with the fact that women often wear high heels with pointed toes, because the foot is the second heart of the human body, and once the toes are squeezed by the narrow toe of the shoe, the blood circulation will be affected, which is extremely unfavorable to the health of the foot. The foot is the second heart of the human body. People who suffer from bunion will find that their bunion is excessively tilted outward, and the heel of the big toe is tucked inward, making the front foot look like a triangular “big snake’s head”. Don’t underestimate it. As the degree of bunion worsens, the big toe moves inward, and the bulge is very prone to friction with the shoe. Over time, this will lead to bunionitis and even corns, claw-shaped toes, foot pads and other diseases, which not only affects the appearance of the patient’s soles, but also affects his or her normal work and life. “Although bunions are scary, they are not without a cure. Doctors suggest that when a bunion deformity is detected, it is best to prevent and treat it as early as possible. In this way, not only can the deterioration of the bunion be slowed down, but some complications can also be effectively prevented. For mild bunion deformity, ordinary physiotherapy can be used to treat it. However, only surgery is the most direct and effective way to cure the bunion. According to reports, there are more than 130 types of bunion surgery. Unfortunately, although there are many hospitals in China that can perform this type of surgery, cases of failure and recurrence are common. Failed surgeries not only cause financial losses to patients, but also physical and mental pain, and even aggravation of the condition. For example, failure of bony surgeries can lead to shortening of the bunion, muscle and tendon laxity and weakness, resulting in aggravation of localized pain, which undoubtedly adds to the burden of the patients. What can be done to ensure the success of the surgery? “Accurate pre-operative assessment is essential for the success of this type of surgery,” says the expert. “In addition, this type of surgery is inherently difficult, and therefore requires a high degree of refinement of the surgical instruments and proficiency in surgical techniques, one without the other.”
