A bunion (Hallux Valgus) is a bony bump that forms on the joint at the base of your big toe. A bunion forms when your big toe pushes against your next toe, forcing the joint of your big toe to get bigger and stick out. The skin over the bunion might be red and sore. Wearing tight, narrow shoes might cause bunions or might make them worse. Bunions can also develop as a result of an inherited structural defect, stress on your foot or a medical condition, such as arthritis.
However, traditional medicine can help you get rid of this problem. Note: for treating bunion, first you should cleanse your body from salt. And, fortunately, there are natural and non-surgical remedies that can help you with this health problem. These home remedies are very simple and easy to make. You just have to follow the simple instructions. Here’s what you need to do.
