Wearing fabulous footwear can sometimes cause excruciating pain as bunions may form. However, thanks to a new minimally invasive technique, you'll soon be up and strutting your stuff again. If your toes are feeling a little squashed in those stilettos, or there's a little red painful bump forming inside those pumps, it's time to make a trip to the clinic.
Bunions are bony deformities that can form near the joint at the base of your big toe due to ill-fitting shoes. They can also be hereditary.

In severe cases, it can cause the other toes to "overlap".
