Bunions are painful bone deformities in the big toe. When the toe is misaligned, the joint in the toe grows larger, creating a protuberance over time. These lumps can cause constant pain from rubbing against shoes, which in turn, irritates the joint resulting in a large bump.

Since bunions are a bone deformity, they will not heal by themselves. Treatments include adding protective padding to sh...

Since bunions are a bone deformity, they will not heal by themselves. Treatments include adding protective padding to shoes, removing calluses, wearing custom fitted shoes, orthotic devices to slowly correct alignment, exercises, and splints.

If you routinely find your toenails yellowed and deformed, fungi may be to blame. There is a type of fungus that thrives in dark, moist, and warm areas, much like your shoes, shower, locker room, etc. You may notice yellow and/or white spots on the nail, along with a thickness that develops over time. If one nail is infected and left untreated, it can easily spread to other nails.

Tendon injuries can be acute or chronic and occur for many reasons, including overuse, trauma, playing sports, and having high arches.

Common tendon injuries seen in the feet and ankles are:

Tendinitis – most often caused by repetitive motion, overuse, or trauma

Acute tears – caused by repetitive activity or trauma

Degenerative tears (tendonosis) – occur over a more extended period and are generally caused by overuse

Subluxation – occurs when one or both peroneal tendons have slipped out of their natural position behind the ankle bone and may be caused by congenital conditions or trauma

We have all made the painful mistake of trimming our nails too short at some point in our lives. Sometimes, this can really affect our foot health by causing ingrown toenails.

This happens when the nail grows downward into the skin instead of straight out, usually causing an infection. Ingrown toenails are most common on the sides of the big toe. It can also be caused by shoe pressure, injury, fungal infections, poor foot structure, etc.
