More often than not, the reason for bunions is badly fitted shoes.Bunions are joints in the foot, that, subject to external pressure become raw, swollen and tender. What really happens is that the bone which joins the big toe to the main foot-arch gets out of alignment.
For relief from bunion soreness, be careful of your choice of footwear. Make sure that your shoes do not cramp you across the ball of your feet.
Also paint with equal parts of iodine and castor oil for instant relief.
Homoeopathic medicine Sulphur 6x is also known to give bunion relief.
Sprinkle flowers of sulphur in the feet of socks or stockings. Bunions can also be removed surgically.
