Who’s At Risk
of Bunions?

Bunions are usually caused by excess pressure on the foot, which can be attributed to various factors, such as:

  • Ill-fitting shoes
  • Certain hereditary foot structures
  • Absence of natural arch in the foot
  • Rheumatic arthritis affecting the foot
  • Abnormal gait like overpronation
When to Seek
Medical Attention
for Bunions?

Many people tend to ignore their bunions until the pain has become unbearable, and walking becomes a challenge.

Addressing bunions early can prevent complications (such as the second toe crossing over the big toe), allow for less invasive surgery and promote a quicker recovery.

Consult a bunion specialist when you notice these warning signs:
Worsening pain in your big toe as you walk, affecting your day-to-day life
Visible deformity at the base of the big toe that can be unsightly and limit the choice of footwear
Dr Yung Shing Wai
Left untreated, bunions will not resolve on their own, and will worsen over time.
