After recieving the news that my feet were far worse then first expected. I was given the news that I was to undergo a deep, painful, mind boggling, mentally changing, long surgery. I was horror-struck by the news. How could this be? How could my small feet... size 10 and PROUD OF IT... have 3 bunions? How?????
Well, a bunion is mainly genetics. Thank you grandma! Just kidding, looks like mine came from almost all the women in my family.
At first, I was frightened, confused you might say. But later began to feel afraid of the surgery... and alone in a world full of women with perfect, non-bunionated feet, probably.
So then, I went to google. My one true source on everything I need to know- it's practically my own brain.
I "googled" celebrities with bunions, because what could make you feel better about having large bones(and in my case cysts) sticking out of your feet other than celebrities who share the same nauseating pain.
GOOD NEWS! It looks like I'M NOT ALONE! Sarah Jessica Parker, Oprah, Victoria Beckam(who recently went under to fix hers) and rumored Cameron Diaz and Hilary Duff share these bunion feet of mine.
That just made my night- what are you feelings? Did knowing you share a common bond over feet with Oprah make you feel better about your bunions. I hope so!
Here's a Picture of Oprah's BUNS!

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope to hear more about bunions soon--
Hey, you don't have to worry. There are men (like I am) who are crazy about female feet with lovely bunions.
Bye

That picture of bunions will give me nightmares for weeks now! Thanks!
What's even better than searching for celebrities with bunions is searching for the ones with stretch marks. Makes you feel a lot better about your 2 that you acquired from the second butterball turkey/child you gave birth two 3 years ago.
Bunions are one of the most painful forefoot deformities, caused when the joint of the big toe grows outside. Bunions may lead to infection, inflammation, redness, tenderness and even might cause pain while walking. Wearing well-fitting and comfortable shoes helps in preventing growth of bunions.

I have developed really bad bunions or Hallux valgus from wearing all my great high heel shoes and stilletto heels.
Now my feet look deformed and I had extreme pain while walking. That was when I discovered the Bunion Aid Treatment Splint,
It really helps because it actually pulls your big toe out away from the rest of the toes, and there is a hinge that enables you to walk normally!
I was so impressed with this product that now I use it almost everyday, it has become part of my life!
If you have bad bunions like me, I encourage you to check out the Bunion Aid Treatment Splint!

Wearing the right kind of shoes is very important. Go roomy and comfortable. Pick shoes that have a wide toe and skip those with high heels or pointed toes. Also, spending long periods of time on your feet can aggravate the symptoms of bunions. I use SmartToes Toe Stretchers for bunion treatment and hammer toe treatment. The unique design helps straighten and align your toes and feet and provide relief for bunion and hammer toe.
