Surgery: There is no was to stop bunion progression, if you have flat feet orthotics can slow the progression but not stop it.

Difficult: Bunion deformities occur with foot imbalance in gait. Frequently a custom-molded foot orthotic with corrective wedging can reduce the forces that are deforming the foot and slow down or arrest a worsening bunion.
