Footwear advice

Whats Involved?

In the early stages your Foot Health Practitioner can advise on finding stylish shoes with a better fit to help alleviate pressure over the "bunion" itself.

How Successful is the treatment?

Because hallux valgus is associated with splaying of your forefoot, this increased width tends to cause pressure over the inside of the big toe joint. Shoes which have more depth and greater width can reduce the pressure over the joint. If the joint has become inflamed, it may take a few days for the swelling to settle down
