supermike80 1,286 Posted August 6, 2019 I have bunions on both feet. My left one has been flaring up like a mo fo for the past couple months. Usually I will get a flare up and it will subside, not so much with this one. Anyone ever have bunion surgery or know someone who has? Any insight? Might be time to take the plunge..The pain is becoming too much to deal with everyday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,640 Posted August 7, 2019 Has nothing to do with weight. And yeah, I have bunions on both feet. It's genetic. . I keep having doctors wanting to cut things off and I'm like get the freak out of here. I will tell you that things have come a long way from shaving them off with essentially a wood plane to the laser surgery they have these days. Frick, I remember taking a few foul tips to the bunion and gosh darn do that hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sderk 1,040 Posted August 8, 2019 Toe spacer. Buy them at the CVS I think. And a little self therapy. If it's the big toe, move it i circular motions starting in the direction of the bunion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to keep them there all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
