Podiatrist Williston Park, NY, Dr. Mary Carlson discusses foot care and the foot bunion, a very painful foot deformity. A bunion is recognized by the displacement of the big toe as it bends and "crosses over" the neighbor toe. The most common cause of bunions is wearing shoes that are too tight, a condition specifically affecting women more than men. Foot care specialists also attribute bunions to weak ligaments or legs unequal in length. A full blown bunion can be excruciatingly painful when trying to walk. Podiatrist Williston Park, NY, Dr. Mary Carlson suggests that the first step in treating a bunion is to schedule an appointment with a foot doctor.
