A bunion (hallux valgus) is a deformity at the base of the big toe, where the bone shifts laterally, forming a painful bump. It can be caused by genetic factors, improper footwear, or structural issues in the feet. Physical therapy is an excellent treatment option, helping to relieve pain, improve mobility, and prevent the progression of the bunion through strengthening exercises, stretching, and gait retraining, promoting better weight distribution across the feet.
