Treatment and prevention:

– Using orthotic devices such as toe spacers or bunion pads to help correct the alignment of the toe
– Taking over-the-counter pain relievers to reduce pain and inflammation
– Doing exercises to strengthen the foot muscles and improve flexibility
– Using custom-made orthotics to help redistribute pressure on the foot and improve alignment

A podiatrist can help assess the severity of the condition and recommend appropriate treatment options. With proper care and treatment, most people with bunions can manage their symptoms and maintain good foot health.
