What does it mean when you have a bunion and you have like pinched nerves

Thank you for mentioning addressing the cause and not just the symptoms. So many doctors these days either don't know any better or just choose to ignore it completely until the patient goes away or dies.

Bunion surgeries are very profitable especially when taking into account the patient will be back in a few years with another bunion afrer going right back to the narrow shoes that caused them.

These exercises and stretches are what I learned to do by listening to my body. Foot doc recommended a joint “clean out” surgery to treat arthritis pain. I opted for all natural address of musculoskeletal issues. All related to foot and ankle pain. I also had tight calves. Everything is connected!

Thank u. I have serious bunions. I wish you would have given some specific shoe recommendations. Like Sketchers? I also wear compression stockings which further pushes the big toe over. I just ordered a pair without toe coverings. Will definitely try the exercises. Appreciate the video 🤗

Hm, while I do various exercises for the thumb itself, I never really thought about stretching the calves and even less about hamstrings and glutes. With my left leg being shorter than my right one in both bones, I really should have done my homework here, thanks. One other crucially important thing that does not get mentioned much is absolute necessity of getting your BMI as close to normal range as you can manage. In the space of six months I went from 36.6 to 32.3 and like hell I'm stopping now, we're going into 27.5 at the very least with this shit. I mean holy shit, I looked in the mirror the other day and was dumbfounded when some fresh-faced cherub peered back! Weight loss _does_ shave off years, guys. The only problem is, diet restrictions are not enough, you _have_ to move for the process to go above snail pace.

See chiropractor too, he may help with hip alignment fixing shorter leg. I used to walk funny because my hip and back were not adjusted or in place. Recently I had shingles on my right leg and it affected my nerves on that leg. I developed bunions soon after… now I’m making the connection. I will try the stretching and massage. I have learned that what ever does not move, dies. Let’s keep moving.

My tendon seems to be " fuzing" to that joint. I've been rubbing it to losen it or help it separate from the joint. I think it's gout build up cementing the joint. Doing that ,pulling and stretching seems to help somewhat. I definitely don't wear tight shoes or socks.

This video was so informative. I've watched so many other videos that never explained this root cause. This video is extremely helpful. Thank you. It really helps me to understand why I had a small bunion for most of my life then in the past decade it has gotten worse. I believe now it got worse because I had/have hips issues, severe pain from a cyst in my spine. That is the side that my bunion is on and has become worse and now my second toe is affected. Thanks again for explaining about stretching.

My bunion actually made a hole in my sneakers, I have to get fitted with proper shoes and inserts.

Where is the link to the shoe stretcher? Thanks.

The bunion splints are a nightmare! My feet only start hurting when I used them and you're absolutely right, they don´t do much. I use orthotics with arch support and transverse arch support that my podiatrist prescribed, good shoes, and stretches. My bunions haven't lessened but they haven't worsened over years, so I'm happy but not satisfied. I have bunions since I was like 10-11years old, now I'm 31. The doctor recommended surgery but I'm not sure if they won't reappear after the surgery. How can I know if I had fixed the underlying problems you mentioned if my bunions haven't lessened?

13:57 is THE TRUTH. If you are only going to do one of these things do the stretching. Great video that explains WHY you have bunion - tight muscles! I had bunions on both feet and did all the things recommended to try to fix them, toe spacers, splints, insoles, wide shoes, nothing worked. Until I stretched! I stretched my glues, hamstrings, CALFS, rolled out the plantar fascia. These are the things that work! If you want to go above an beyond add some exercises to strengthen all those muscles. After 2+ years of A LOT of stretching and strengthening have no bunions, strong ankles and strong arches. It is possible.

Podiatrist suggested a joint “ clean out” surgery to remove bony spurs that he said would give me pain relief for 5-7 years but would need to repeat surgery after that. The kicker for me was that I might have swelling for up to 6 months after surgery. Well that got me thinking about whether I wanted 6 months of little to no exercise after surgery. I decided it was not worth that kind of possible health setback. In the meantime I manage it as per above and do PT toe exercises and self massage.

Hello, my bunion is coming back after lapidus surgery two years ago. I have two pairs of new custom orthotics. One pair was designed to treat 2nd toe pain and metatarsalgia and it has a high dome in the middle arch. The other pair has a medial arch dome to treat pttd and pronation. I have a 3rd pair I bought OTC called Arch Rival that has a big toe groove. I don’t know which pair is going to help prevent the bunion from getting worse. The area of the bunion is red and sore, and the big toe is drifting towards the second toe. You can imagine how distressing this is. Since I live in CA, I cannot see you. Which orthotic do you think I should be wearing to stabilize the big toe joint.?

Wow we really appreciate the kind words. great feedback like this is what really keeps us working hard to make better and more meaningful content. The answer is that the stretcher is not perfect but it can get rid of that extreme pain in some people, which is the goal. If possible we would really appreciated a review from a great fan like you! g.page/r/CaxJ9b-O6o27EAg/review Thank you for being such a great fan and we really appreciate you watching!

Michigan Foot Doctor , I have psoriatic arthritis and I have a pretty big bunion on my left foot and it's very painful. You said if it's from arthritis then it might not be able to be fixed, is it any kind of arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis? I also have one leg longer than the other not by much and I believe it's the left leg that is longer. Just curious thanks for the video

Feet over pronate because the tarsi sinus has collapsed. Before you try this or get lapiplasty (which is the best Bunion correction surgery) correct this problem with a HiPro Cure screw to keep the Tarsi Sinus open.

I have a bunion on the big toe of only one foot. The problem I’m having is even if I didn’t have a bunion, the space between my big toe and the other toes is quite large. Any spacer/ stretcher I use doesn’t give a good enough stretch. Big toes have like a lollipop shape. Anyone else encounter this? Or any suggestions? Thnx

I am totally confused because I have been reading articles on the website for Correct Toes and they state that if you have a bunion, that you should wear flat shoes. Shoes that have a zero drop, are flexible and have a wide toe box. They show a variety of shoes on their site but they say you are not supposed to wear orthotics in the shoe. Also, since I have a problem with my second toe, which was operated on long ago for a hammertoe, to wear a metatarsal pad. Can someone help with this? Thank you.

I’ve been reading up on this as well as I have developed a big toe bunion recently. I think you can have a zero drop shoe and still have good arch support. That’s what I’m looking forward as well. I’m currently wearing brooks that have a 12 mm drop and recently upgraded to a good arch support. I am looking for a lower drop though

I have had the same problem. I’ve been trying to wear altras for the added room in the toe-box, but man does my big toe hurt after walking in those for even short distances. Time to try the arch support!

Where did you get the shoe stretcher ?

Has anyone tried this and did it work? My podiatrist said it wouldn't work and only option is surgery. I really don't want surgery.

I like how quietly he talks as if bunion correction is a secret ☺️ Thank you for the video, very useful!❤️
