Could You Have Bunions? The Stylish Woman’s Guide to Foot Health
Beautiful shoes should never come at the cost of your comfort. If you’ve noticed a subtle bump at the base of your big toe, a little stiffness in your joint, or that familiar ache at the end of the day, your feet are trying to tell you something. Bunions are common, affecting nearly one in five people worldwide, and about 30 percent of women in the UK. The good news is that with the right awareness and supportive footwear, you don’t have to compromise on style or wellbeing.
Early Signs of Bunions to Watch For
Bunions usually start quietly, with subtle changes that grow over time. Being able to recognize the early signs allows you to make choices that protect your feet and maintain comfort.
- A bump at the base of the big toe that may be tender or red
- Stiffness in the joint making it harder to flex your toe naturally
- Calluses where toes press together or rub inside shoes
- Difficulty finding comfortable shoes as once-loved styles start to pinch
Sometimes the most telling signs are the ones you don’t consciously notice. You may shift your weight while walking or unconsciously favour certain shoes to ease discomfort. Your body is remarkably adaptive, and it’s important to listen.
Understanding Bunions and Why They Happen
Bunions are not a flaw. They develop from a combination of genetics, foot shape, and years of footwear that forces the toes into unnatural positions. They are an adaptation rather than a failure, signalling the need for footwear that respects your foot structure and natural movement.
