Many people have a lump on side of foot, but don't know what it is. If that lump is at your between your big toe and your 1st tarsal bone, it is very likely a bunion. Bunions are also known by the term hallux valgus.

What causes bunions is that your first tarsal bone on the foot drifts outwards. Your big toe then drifts in. The joint in between them then develops a bump with time, which can worsen if gone untreated. This bump can be quite painful and it can be hard to fit yourself into shoes. The ability to walk may also be affected.

There are different ways to help manage a bunion. One can first use a toe splint, which can help keep the big toe angled out more. Toe spacers may also be useful. Because flat feet can potentially cause bunions, wearing orthotics may potentially help. The biggest thing to do, however, is to wear wider shoes. This will go a long way towards not scrunching your toes together, like what happens when you wear high heels.

Obviously if you have this, you should see a doctor to get treated, as they will guide you the best. If all else fails, surgery is an option.
