- It’s important to seek proper treatment and follow exercises that will prevent further injury. Hopefully, following our recommendations will make your life less painful and a little brighter!
If you suffer from bunions, you might not have recognized the moment when they started to show on your feet. People often don’t pay enough attention to the first signs of a bunion, but it’s vital to catch it early on as it’s only in the initial stages of this condition that it can be prevented. Keep watching to learn tips to prevent bunions and to figure out what to do if you already have them.

SUMMARY:
- Your toes are meant to lie flat and feel comfortable inside a shoe without getting pressed against one another. They should have room to move!
- Your diet is also important. If you are used to eating very fatty foods or opting for whatever happens to be in the fridge, this is a good time to start making smarter dietary choices.
- When it comes to bunions, though, if you spend a lot of time not moving your feet, you risk the muscles becoming tight, the fascia in your feet getting “glued together,” and losing strength in your feet.
- Massage will help you loosen up muscles in your feet and keep your toes facing the right way. When you put your foot into a tight shoe, you are encouraging your toes to be cramped.
- A bunion pad will cushion the area where the bunion hurts and will make it easier to wear shoes.
- A bunion sleeve covers a larger area of your foot than a bunion pad, and it might encase your whole foot arch.
- Crush some ice, wrap it in a towel, and put it against your bunion to diminish the pain. It will also work as an anti-inflammatory.
- If your bunions are already quite large, they might chafe against your shoe and cause your skin to wear away in that area. Regular foot soaks will help relieve tiredness, reduce sweat, and eradicate harmful bacteria.

I think I'll just hammer down mine.

Did it work?

This video is NOT about getting RID of bunions - it's about how to live with them. Misleading title.
Hollywood Art Chick i recommend you watch jarvis johnson bright side video
flip flops
@Princessat43a i agree. I have bunions, I had a bunion removed and it came it back. It runs in my family. Hopefully, my daughter doesn't get bunions.
@Princessat43a WHAT do u mean in early cases strapping can help? do u mean before the toes turn sideways (like stage 1) and its just a lump..that hasnt affected yr toe positioning yet,,, strapping would MAYBE REverse it?
@@blackceasar2141 please i have a same problem then what's the solution
I used to wear toe spacers all the time. They shrank the bunion and it stopped developing. Now I just wear them at night and have no further problems.
i need to get some, mine isn’t noticeable, very mild but i want to prevent it from progressing any further
I was wondering if they actually worked?
What kind of toe spacers did you buy and from where?
@@patty7545 Walgreens Gel Toe Spacer
@@kaileim970 Thank you so much
I really got my daddy’s feet 😩
Chloe Perez I got my mommy’s feet and my daddy’s toes.🙃
Sameee😣
Same :(
@Chloe Perez, I do TOO. His mom an aunt had the bunions bad. 😁😁
I felt that
i have a mild bunion for years i been wearing new balance walking sneakers and it has kept the bunion in check now 20 years later my bunion still has not gotten any worse

Hi

Hi lol
@@SelinaZinchuk Ikr 😂
Going barefoot as often as possible helped me a lot. It makes your feet stronger.
So true! Bunions run in my family. My daughter developed them at 8😪!. I noticed that they got better during the pandemic while we're home.
@@karlenecowan4694 I'm sorry if this is unsolicited advice but switching to minimalist shoes was the best thing I did this year. Those shoes have enough space for your toes which means that your feet have the space to realign to their natural bunion free position. They also have a flexible sole and zero drop so they help you keep a correct posture.
@@annie5741 I just wore my Vivobarefoot shoes to work for the first time and they definitely force me into a way better walking posture. You are definitely correct
*I was born with bunions...*
I can relate
@@gyannunezYeah, true..Lol.
Me and my cousin also did
Yes me too
@@deedoran5400 it sucks..
I was hoping there was a better solution for bunions than surgery. Thanks for this video 👍👍
I had a bunion on my right foot and Taylor bunions on on both feet. I was able to reduce them to almost nonexistent by stretching and strengthening my hips, which changed the way I walk.
How? Do u have flat feet or no?
My right foot is bit more turned out than left foot. Right foot has the bunion. I think the pressure is from position of hip joint. Don't know of hip exercise to try correct. Maybe in soles to correct foot? No idea as I'm now 61. Anyone got advice. Thx
I was born with bunions. I am the only one in my close family that has them. They are incredibly painful and the reason of why I quit the sport I love: basketball. I am 12 and will be 13 in May. About December of 2019 I will get surgery. I can't stop thinking about it and keep watching videos about this issue. God, please let my pain end after the surgery
Do tell us if there is any relief after surgery. Good luck.
Surgery was not easy, still painful. My foot is still very wide and I had to get rid of all my old shoes.
As a podiatrist, I can’t agree with most of this advice! Once bunions developed and you are genetically prone it won’t really reverse but you can do things to help with the pain. Having a bunion doesn’t meant you need surgery however. That is only reserved for people with pain and that is the main thing being treated. Shoe wear makes a difference yes. Weight loss won’t really make a difference. I’m not sure how effective these exercises really are. Bunion pads are great! Again main indication for surgery is pain
How do you know these methods are not working?????you tried them on your patients and they did not work?? Or you r saying it bc that s what you r taught at school???
Since you are a podiatrist, I want to let you know that a bunch of women I know who had surgeries said it didn't help, and actually theirs didn't go away either. You are in the field, you should come up with something for feet without surgeries, and make lots of money. Start with educating designers not to design weird toe shaped shoes for women.
@@btdu2789 they already know that! But not all people will develop bunions despite the shoes they wear. Men have them as well.
@@stefaniakonstantinidou981 are you very young? What this gentleman is saying is backed by science & experience. Once it develops it will not go away. One can mitigate the damage or progression but reversal is extremely unlikely.
@@Bambisgf77 ii m not very young and i know that what you call " science " is quite often research controlled by big pharma on what makes them money. Research by " sciene " is not independent nor true for that reason. If you want the truth u need to search beyond...
I had bunion surgery on both feet years ago. Biggest mistake of my life! Now, the toe next to the big one can't straighten out, and is painful (both feet); and the big toe of the right foot climbs over the toe next to it. Painful and unsightly! Please do your research before having surgery!
How long did yiu have The surgery
Dam I’m sorry to hear that.
I agree with you I have done it, and I greatly regret it
so i'm a dancer and i am going on point shoes soon but i have bunions on both feet. should i have surgery or not
Maya Naicker yes completely agree with you a great doctor makes a big difference I am so happy with my results I suffered so much before but now I can dance all night long
how could you not mention toe spacers. that is like the number 1 thing to correct it. and relieve pain.
You are right.
Bunion need that
I use some,.ok.
Toe spacers thank u
He did
D
I started wearing zero drop wide toe box shoes. So far it's been a couple months and my feet do feel better.
Didnt I just miss something’s here? I have flat feet and narrow and no arch support. This causing the bunion.
anyone living with bunions, I'd recommend getting lapiplasty surgery, the best bunion surgery out there in my opinion. I recently just got this procedure and am making update videos if anyone's interested in getting the surgery.
Can you you give me s ip date on bunion surgery
But how long is recovery? I have a very active lifestyle and very important job! How long would I have to stay off my feet? When would I be able to wear shoes? Would I have to stay in a cast or something? Is there a way to get rid of them without surgery?
I’ve been seeing you on a lot of bunion videos lol
I want this surgery too. but unfortunately it is not available in Europe.
Have a good day random stranger scrolling through the comments.
💞what are u thinking about my vids
I had bunion surgery in August do the exercises & lay marbles on the floor & pick them up with your toes . The exercises where you shift the weight on your toes is good too . The surgery was easy the recovery is painful avoid it if you can .
Really, ugh. I'm afraid to get surgery because I can't take narcotics. Can pain be managed with otc pills, you think?
Hey tell me please now u better or not after 3years
@@nikkigoyal3974 I’m a lot better now . But the scar is kinda bad . No pain , I want the other one done but i won’t do it b/c of the scarring . If you need surgery get it
This is very educative, thanks for that. Every think in this video is TOTALLY TRUE.
I don’t even wear heels and rarely wear flats. Yet I still have this problem, despite wearing wide shoes like boots and loafers. . .
I wear heels, that’s why I have them. And I’m only 12.
I just noticed that I have one forming. I have large fee
t, and when I was growing up, there weren't any fashionable shoes for me to wear. I always had room in my shoes for my toes to move. My P.A. told me that sometimes bunions are hereditary. Yay :/
Genetic
Both of my parents have bunions and I don’t want my baby brother to have them so I press down on the bunion part and pull his toe the other way😂
@@yanna.580 🙈🤣
When I got my feet deformed I was 20 years, slim and actif, I was not wearing high hill shoes...
Bad sneaker shows can do it either way
I’m a bit concerned about this comment because I think I’m getting a bunion & I run a lot..... maybe it’s my babies?? 👟😩
Thank you bright side without you my bunions will never be gone
Has your bunion been cured
Thank you for this GREAT video!
Very informative and educational.
I will definitely try those steps.
Nope no bunions, but the toes exercises are great even if you don't have bunions. Thanks for sharing, great video BRIGHT SIDE!
You are blessed not to have it
Mine hurts more a night when I’m resting. The pain keeps me up.
I found the bunion corrector helps to release the pain on my foot. I were it while I am sleeping. But I always forget to wear them if my foot is not hurting. You can get it from drug store or Walmart.
Can be corrected only through surgery, I actually had one 5 years ago. In my case, it was a hereditary problem, and the correction definitely was a big relief.
So none of your mentioned solution actually would work.....
Can u workout after surgery?Like can perform heavy squats and run bare foot?
@@yourkingvijay yes ofcourse, but only after you fully recover, you will be back on feet in around 50 days. But, I would advise you to exert extra pressure, such a lifting weights and performing squats, only after 6 months. I, myself go to gym regularly....
Ok,tq paaji for advise.My bunions are not that grown or hearting,can they be naturally treated
@@yourkingvijay No, you cannot change the shape naturally, for relieving pain you could try bunion pads....
@@yourkingvijay his information is misleading, I can't stand when people act like everyone is the same, what did not work for you might work for someone else... I had the same thing, the only difference was mines was in it's early stages, sometimes it was painful... I soaked my feet everyday with warm water for 15 mins, then gently rubbed it with a pumice stone, after I put a few drops of Castor oil on some cotton and bandage it over the affected area... I soaked my feet and used the pumice stone once a day and applied the castor oil two- three times a day. And one day it was gone.. I no longer wear tight shoes so it never returned. This worked for me try it might work for you.
It looks like a bunion is starting to developing on one of my feet. I must stop it before it gets bigger. Thanks for the tips about the toe exercises.
Thanks for this video :-)
Will surely help a few of my relatives...
👍👍👍 Love your videos..
I find using the kinesiology tape has been helpful too! There’s plenty of videos on how to apply it on the web, though they vary some. I’ve experimented to find which works best for me.
I do Pointe Ballet, so it’s impossible for me not to get bunions. I already have small ones, but I will try these tips and hopefully they will help!
Well the only solution for me was to have foot surgery on my 2 feet with no regrets. I love the way my feet turned out great doctor as well it’s was painful and a slow recovery but worth it
Thank you for this very informative presentation. I recently developed a bunion on my right foot. Considered making an appointment for a podiatrist. However, because it's not very big with no pain I've decided to try some home remedies. But this morning, upon feeling a burning sensation from my left foot, I notice a small bunion starting up.
Really hopeful your video techniques will give me some relief.
What happened
Placing rubber bands around your two big toes together, then stretching them apart works. I'm doing that now. Thanks for other options.
Virginia Bradley did you see any results?
@@papriqra You just reminded me to do it. I guess when it doesn't hurt I forget to do it. I don't know if it worked, but it was suggested by a doctor.
I noticed a bunion on my right foot a few months ago. Incredible as it may seem, it was not because of wearing narrow shoes, but because I wore a boot a size bigger. As I live on a farm with very uneven terrain, I was forcing my support leg, mainly on the slopes, and that is how I hurt my right foot. I feel no pain and it is not swollen, but it is sad to see my foot slightly deformed. I'm using bunions pads and toe separators, and doing the exercises, I hope it gets better.
Did it?
Answer us bro
As a dancer we are taught to just use spacers as they can correct your foot problem in like 6 weeks, it worked for me so just maybe try those. :)
What are spacers??
What spacers do you recommend?
I am flat-footed and have since developed arthritis from some knee surgery that I had a few years ago. I have developed bunions on both feet which are painful and give me unexpected muscle cramps, mostly when driving. I use bunion pads but honestly, I have not experienced any relief.
I really lived my whole life thinking my feet were supposed to look like this. 🤣🤦♂️
God bless you and keep up the good job, Bright side, this video is one of the best. Thanks a lot with love.
Thank you for this informative video, I have developed a bunion on my right foot, and needed to know what caused it,as well as what to do for some relief. I don't think it runs in my family, but I wore high heels for years. (I am 4'9" tall, &it felt(feels)at times like being 'in the land of the giants'!) So, yes I wore them often. I have seldom wore heels in past 5 years, however, but during the past 3yrs, I've had quite a bump appear beside my big R toe. Boy it smarts at times, and the whole area where bump has formed, burns deeply, feeling like, what I would imagine, stepping on a hot coal! I was happy to learn that I may be able to do exercise, and perhaps even help mold or shift the bows there to improve. Yes, sensible footwear is imperative, thanks again for the tips!
Maggie. 🚫 😯 👠 👢 👡 ✔ 👟 👣 💅 = 😃😄
Hi Maggie! How are you dealing with your pain now? My right foot is killing me and I don't want to have surgery. Thanks, Larry
larry lucas to bad you need to take surgery. I had to do it as well and i can tell you it hurts like nothing else. It’s pain like i never felt before. GOOD LUCK!

Today you are talking a bit differently. I love when you talk like we are kids.
Donald Trump 😂😂😂
Thanks for the video i hope it works out my mom said i had to get surgery but now i dont because of the video
I'm so happy I don't wear heels. I'm flat footed so I can't last in heels no longer than 1 minute lol. They're very uncomfortable and cause many problems to the feet.
I can't wear heels either, but because I have knee spurs, not flat feet. But remember, you can STILL get bunions from wearing pointy toed flats too.
Hiya great video I've got the biggest Banyan you ever seen and I've got one on the other foot 2 and now I'm disabled riddled with Arthritis and you're so right it really does hurt when they're coming until they get really really big
Mine stopped hurting simply by not wearing tight restricting shoes
I like your videos but the music is distracting.
I wear vans… no socks.. I’m getting a bunion on my left foot🤦🏾♀️
Hi, your video is very helpful to some people. May I translate it to Chinese to help some people living in Taiwan?
I think I've got a small bunion in my rught coz of a injury
Wish I knew this earlier.
What great information on TH-cam video, I enjoyed it very much.
- Mine only started after I went from tight shoes to trainers, so what's with that?
- The actual problem is the big toe going sideways and pushing the joint out, due to flat feet.
Informative, thank you.
High heels are so comfortable if we compare it with pointe shoes it's a ballerina problem
Most of my friends have this problem because we all play basketball
Thank you! But when have I do operation?
Mine are genetic. None of these precautions worked. Skinny, energetic kids who never wore a high heel get genetic bunions, too. These tips might work for acquired bunions, though
My bunions are generic and I wore heals and narrowed 👠 shoes . I visit the Podiatry every three months.
Thank you for your valuable information, I need to find shoes W. It’s difficult to find in Charlotte! I will read all your help! Thanks again, Amy
I have been wearing a silicone insert between my big toe and my little toe but today I dusted off an old pair of Earth shoes (negative heel technology) that I used to like wearing. I had not worn them in years, but they really felt great today. I have started to get a bunion on one foot. It is sore sometimes. I'm going to go ack to wearing this type of shoe for a while to see if it helps my bunion issue. Thanks for this video!
Thanks a lot,for ur wisdom🙇♀️..
My big toe nails have thickened and it appears skin around nails are pulling away since the bunions have developed. What can i do to prevent further erosion of nails?
No 6. Photoshop: You can get rid of the bunion by photoshopping it like in our thumbnail...
I got bunion on my both feets in weary young age and it's a big problem to me bc I play football so it's sometimes annoying. I hope this helps me and ty so much for this video :)))
What happend?
The only way to get rid of bunions is surgery. I had 3D Lapiplasty done on both feet just recently. I’m very happy with my results.
I would get surgery but it’s just the recovery as I’m doing fitness every day at college from Wednesday
I live in Barbados and can,t get anything to put in my shoes for bunions
Very helpful thanks.
I feel knee pain and back pain... I feel worried to increase especially left become bigger than right
Very nice video friend nice sharing 🎉🎉🙏
Helpful & wonderful, thank you
I got surgery on my left foot and it was very painful and it grew back now I have a double bunion on my right foot foot
Me gustó pero quiero saber cuanto vale la cirugía
La verdad es que me caigo mucho porque no tengo balance están muy torcido mis de dos les a agradezco si me pueden alludar
Nice exercise for bunions I hve. The problem I am following exercise
USE A PRODUCT CALLED CORRECT TOES AND THE WIDE SHOES, I just came across this whilst looking at how to have natural feet
This is titled wrong ...its management not getting rid of it.
Can u get rid of bunions without surgery?
What do you do for a dorsal bunion?
My mom has bunions too so had had it too from my childhood
Thanks for the information
To those watching this:
1) none of the things suggested will “get rid of your bunion”. Proper shoe gear will help slow the progression of the deformity if it’s early and not at its end stage.
2) All of these suggestion are pretty much BS. The only way for symptom control is padding, shoe gear modifications which they mention, but they are not easy to get into shoes really.
3) the only way to structurally fix your bunion is through surgery. No massage or exercise routine or splinting is going to fix the bunion. This is only achieved surgically. Some people can get symptom relief and slow/stop progression of the bunion. Otherwise you are looking at surgery.
Amazing video!
I have slightly bent toes on my right foot from wearing shoes that were too small when I was younger. Is it possible to correct this as well? Ten years ago I was prescribed orthopedic insoles, are treatments more advanced today?
Thanks ..it's sounds helpful..my father suffers from this..it will help him..🙏
Who’s watching to get rid of their bunion
Me
the most recent dietary research indicates the beans, wheat, are inflammatory and saturated fats are anti-inflammatory.
I hope that i will eventually be able to get rid of this...

Do we have to sit or stand up and then do it?
Idk why I'm here lol, I don't have it..
I'ma watch though
Lucky lol
Nice useful video,, slightly ruined by loud background music hiding narrator's voice.
i have bunions but it's not hurt i usually use TOE SPACER because it's not too big
Thanks for the info.
The title of this video is misleading because it does not tell anything about how to get rid of bunions
Mulțumesc pentru acest document.
Very good information! 😊
the reason for us to get bunions are simply we have a unstable pelvis go see a proper chiropractor and it will be gone , the excersize is always welcome in any part of the body
What do you mean by "unstable pelvis" ? I have had bunions since childhood, it's genetic on my mother's side. And I have been doing pilates for 4 years and my bunions didn't get well. They are the same.
Im little confused... How can u get rid of it without surgery cause thats what I had to do twice...
Right, youtube is filled with clickbait titles. Maybe they meant how to prevent it from worsening, but of course they won't title it that way, won't get as much views. Smh.
You can’t. I’ve had bunion surgery also.
