What Is a Bunion?

    By Joseph Bennington-CastroMedically Reviewed by Sanjai Sinha, MD

Conservative treatments may help relieve bunion symptoms, but only surgery can correct the deformity.

A bunion, or hallux valgus, is a physical deformity in which the big toe (hallux) moves and points toward the second toe.

This deformity causes a bump on the outside edge of the big toe.
