5 Bunion Treatment Methods You Should Know

Bunions can be painful and affect daily activities. Here are five treatment methods to relieve discomfort and prevent further complications.

1. Wearing Proper Footwear - Choosing wide-toe shoes with good arch support can reduce pressure on the bunion and provide comfort. Avoid high heels and tight shoes.
2. Using Orthotic Inserts - Custom or over-the-counter orthotic insoles can help distribute foot pressure evenly, reducing pain and slowing bunion progression.
3. Applying Ice & Taking Pain Relievers - Icing the bunion for 15-20 minutes and using anti-inflammatory medications (like ibuprofen) can help manage swelling and pain.
4. Stretching & Strengthening Exercises - Toe stretches, resistance exercises, and foot massages can improve flexibility and alleviate discomfort.
5. Surgical Treatment for Severe Cases - If conservative treatments fail, bunion surgery (such as bunionectomy) may be required to correct the deformity and relieve pain.

Early treatment can prevent worsening symptoms. If pain persists, consult a specialist in Singapore for professional advice.
