How Do Foot Bunion(s) Occur?
A bunion occurs when the joint at the base of your big toe becomes enlarged, sore and swollen. Your big toe may start to angle toward your second toe, or move underneath it. Women are most affected by bunions, which are often caused by wearing narrow, tight shoes, or high heels. A Bunionette occurs on the other side of the foot, near your small toe, and is much smaller than a bunion.
