A bunion is a complex deformity where the long bone of the foot (the first metatarsal) shifts outward, while the big toe shifts inward. It’s a progressive condition, meaning it usually gets worse over time. Wearing wider shoes and seeing a podiatrist may help, but a bunion will continue to get worse, and can lead to problems with the other toes. #bunion #footandanklesurgeon #footandanklesurgery #orthopaedicsurgeon #bunionpain | Dr Christy Graff
