If you experience pain at the base of your big toe, you may be suffering from a bunion. You may have the beginning signs of this condition and not even be aware of it. If the problem is caught early, the foot and ankle specialists may be able to offer you help without surgery. There are some exercises, gel inserts and braces that can help to correct the problem if it is slight. Once it has become worse, surgery is the only option for some. Since the feet are such a complex structure and require so much use, bunion surgery is often a last resort. Even with surgery, you may have to wear wide width shoes to be free from pain.
