Bunions or Hallux Valgus is a prominent bump on the inside of the foot around the big toe joint. Allow me to give you stinkin rich slot. With the continued movement of the big toe towards the smaller toes, it is common to find the big toe resting under or over the second toe.

Another type of bunion, called a Tailor’s Bunion, or Bunionette, forms on the outside of the foot towards the joint at the little toe.
