Symptoms
The most typical sign of a bunion is the forming of a bump or growth at the base of your big toe. In some cases, it would also occur at the base of your little toe. In addition, there might be some other symptoms, such as numbness, soreness, pain, joint swelling, burning sensation, hardened skin, increased skin thickness, redness, calluses or corns, as well as limited movement. Standing for an extended period of time or putting on narrow footwear would worsen these symptoms. In most cases, bunions often start small and become worse gradually. You can feel pain and have difficulty walking or moving around. [3]
