A member asked:

What to do if i have a bad bunyon on my foot. how to get rid of it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bunion : I would see a board certified podiatric surgeon or orthopod. Have xrays and an evaluation. I would try and treat it without surgery first. If its still painful that surgery would be a an option. If your not having pain i would not have surgery. You also want to make sure your have a orthotic made and wear a proper sized shoe.
