Bunions can be extremely painful due to the weight of all your body resting on it each time you take a step. Everyday activities, such as walking and wearing shoes, can cause you extreme discomfort if you have a bunion.<\/p><p data-fontsize=\"18\">Reasons that a person may develop a bunion can vary. Some patients may form bunions due to genetic factors, complications with <strong data-fontsize=\"18\">arthritis<\/strong>, or a weak foot structure. General aging can also play a role in the formation of a bunion.<\/p><p data-fontsize=\"18\">A podiatrist skilled in biomechanics and foot structure will be able to identify bunions with a biomechanical assessment. Blood testing may be required to identify bunions from gout or arthritic disorders. A radiographic examination to obtain a picture of the bone structure may be prescribed by the podiatrist.<\/p><p data-fontsize=\"18\">An x-ray is diagnostic option which can show an expansion of the joint space close to the base of the toe and a displacement towards the smaller toes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6f422e63 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6f422e63\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-31632c59\" data-id=\"31632c59\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b7687a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2b7687a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Calluses<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5bf450ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5bf450ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Thickened skin can form on your feet to protect an area from pressure or friction.

However, corns and calluses can get larger without proper care, become sensitive to touch, lead to cracked skin, and make walking difficult.
