I can definitely say that wearing wide toe box shoes, being barefoot more often, wearing toe spacers, and doing foot strengthening exercises has helped a ton with my bunions and flat feet. Been using the ByeBuns kit for the past few weeks and it has truly made a difference. Great video

@sleepytigereyes Жыл бұрын

I'm using silicone toe spreaders or a splint. Once the toes get use to it, the big toe toe will stop fighting with it's own muscle memory and begin to move back. It actually works. This will take more time to correct the damage already done over the years. Buy wide boots or shoes that fit comfy and the foot can move from side to side without any toe squeezing. Toe socks do not work for this method. Continue using toe spreaders or splint each evening for a few hours and remove if discomfort begins. Repeat process each night or every other night as your toes will begin to adjust. Try to catch this before it gets too severe and need surgery. Surgery cuts nerve endings in the bottom of your foot and causes a permanent numbness that is uncomfortable. Foot doctors may not tell you this and you will have to live with it for the rest of your life. Try to avoid surgery if possible.

@susanadisanto5825 5 ай бұрын

😮 I imagine nerve damage in feet negates any benefits of good toe spacing that might improve balance, and just replaces that issue with a new one of lack of/inadequate sensation... Not to mention a long time with strange cold/burning electrical pains that can recur years on. Nerves take an age to heal or re-map, if not at all. I had experience of colectomy to remove a tumor. The surgeon thought "saving my life" was sufficient not to have to warn me about 45% risk of pudendal nerve damage, in my case, 5 years ago... nor the LARS that affects bowel cancer survivors for the rest of their life. It takes a long time to heal, manage and adapt to a "new normal". My experience of hip surgery at RNOH was much more positive. It depends a lot on the consultant, the hospital culture, and essentially their patient attitude. Their experience of your condition is often very academic, and they have little idea of how their intervention affects you long after you leave hospital. They assume you'll have read it in the pre surgery literature, or accept it when you sign consent forms

Excellent video. This really was full of the basic information that explains the causes of bunions and crowded toes. Then the basic methods to correctly help treat and resolve these problems is so well explained. I'm a Physician Assistant, practice > 45 years and have seen thousands of patients with these problems and had no real idea of how to address them, except for wider box toe shoes and referral to a Podiatrist. My wife, who started Ballet training as a young girl, had terrible hallux valgus/bunions and trouble finding any shoes she could wear without pain. These well explained methods would have really helped her and my previous patients!! Thank you!!!

New subscriber here! My bunion had almost torn through the flesh and I had to get surgery to file the bone and loosen the flesh on the inside of the big toe. The bone has grown back (almost 35 years since the surgery!) but mostly manageable. Except during the rainy season or cold weather when it hurts and often gets inflamed. I wore a bunion brace for years but now a toe spreader helps most of the time. I mostly wear open sandals with a toe separator stump but I will check out the barefoot shoes. Thanks, Lajo

I am now 63 and I can still do this, I don't have bunions, but I wanted to watch this to make sure I never get them, prevention better than cure.

I've had bunnions my entire life. My younger daughter is starting with them too and I've always made sure all my kids shoes fit properly. They mostly go barefoot anyway, lol. There is definitely a genetic component.

I'm so glad I found this channel. I have bunions, heel spurs, and had plantar fasciitis at one point in time. I noticed something was wrong with my ankles when I started practicing yoga and the same exercise you suggested to straighten your ankles was a yoga pose I was struggling with. After a week I was able to maintain balance but I will admit some weeks after I still have not perfected it. Now that you have explained this in detail I understand now how my ankles contributed to collapsed arches and how it exacerbated the issues I have with my bunions. I also think that my knees are a bit inverted which also contributes to this problem. I definitely look forward to your program.

I wear Altra running and hiking shoes. It's the only brand of athletic shoes I can wear. I am aging with little fat pads left on the bottom of my feet so regular bare foot shoes with little to no cushion are too painful to wear. Some Altra shoes are well cushioned so I can walk long distance in them without any issues. For casual and at home wear, I swear by Crocs. They have natural foot shaped toe boxes like the Altras but you wear them like sandals or slippers.

I've recently seen a newer surgical technique for fixing bunions. Instead of the older bunionectomy surgery, this new technique uses small plates to correct the unstable big toe joint. According to what I read, some of the newest evidence points to unstable toe joints as being a primary cause of bunions. As opposed to earlier beliefs that the pushing out of the big toe bones was the primary cause of bunions. Thank you for your information, as I'm sure it can all be used together along with the newest understandings of bunions to help curb and repair bunions. Preferably without surgery all together.

I found this video before my bunion got bad. I just developed it over the past month. I'm very grateful to find this, I was told that it only got worse once you developed one. I'm also going to start wearing toe separators used for pedicures when I get home from work every night to help separate my toes. I bought some running shoes that I really liked a couple years back and have been wearing them ever since. And I think that's what caused the bunion. Also I wear too tight socks that push my toes together too much. And I work on my feet all day. I'll be back with a two-week update!

I just had to thank you for this video. Despite the fact that I just celebrated my 70th birthday, and have advanced bunions that have become quite painful recently, using the toe spreaders for 2 hours in the evening for just a few days has helped immensely. I was totally unable to separate my toes without using my hands, and could barely bend my toes at all. My toes were so tightly squished together that it was driving me nuts. Now 2-3 weeks later, there is a gap between my toes, small, but there, and my ability to bend them has improved. I'm so grateful!

I've had this for about 17 years and for the last 9 I've worn a toe spreader just on my big toe and it has absolutely stopped the progression. I just use the ones women use to paint their toes with from the dollar stores. If you should try this beware that for some time your foot will be MORE sore as your toe is being somewhat forced back the other way. It goes away.

I had a bunion developing in my right baby toe and Morton's Neuroma between my 2 & 3 toes, on the same foot. I've taken your advice and switched over to zero drop shoes with really wide toe boxes. I also took the cue from your cute newborn baby and started doing exercises of splaying out my toes and curling them and doing about 25 of these 2 or 3 times a day. My feet feel energized after I do these exercises. To my great surprise, my Morton's Neuroma has nearly disappeared and my bunion is about half the size, and it has only been 2 weeks! Hopefully in another few weeks, these 2 problem will have completely healed themselves. Thank you for video posts! They have been very helpful.
