I’ve had bunion on my right foot for about 10 years. Watched this video seems like a year ago or close. Got better fitting shoes and did all the exercises every day and sometimes several times a day. And it was getting better, but today there was a difference. Had a little crack like cracking your knuckles in my foot. No pain whatsoever associated with it. And suddenly my toe is straight, no pain, I can walk straight and fully extend my foot. It’s like a miracle. Thank you so very much. I’ll continue the exercises for sure. And I also watch all of your videos and you’ve helped me in so many ways. You’re incredible in how you’re helping others. Thanks again.

Bunions are typically correlated with flat feet/flexible arch which may also be causing your knee pain. The pain at the bunion is typically from shoe pressure at the bunion. Try wearing athletic shoes with a soft mesh upper and a stiff sole and add in an arch support. Make sure you’re wearing the correct size shoe. You should have at least 1\2 inch from the end of your big toe to the end of the shoe when standing. You can also use a bunion pad to protect the bone in shoes. You can see a foot specialist for orthotics or to discuss corrective surgery. Best of luck.

I had stage 4 bunions on both feet before I was 30. I’ve always worn wide, comfortable shoes. I’m not impressed by fashion, I did what made my feet less painful. I’m a medical professional who was on my feet for years, narrowly sitting each shift for minutes. I was also an avid mountain climber, but had to tape my toes before each hike. Surgery was my only option as both feet were beyond what you describe here. After recovering from surgery, no more pain, or taping needed. I was non-weight bearing for 6-7 weeks. I’m 66 years old now and by far that was the best decision I’ve made to increase my quality of life. BTW, I was normal to small in build, ate clean, and always wore the correct shoes for this problem. I would be curious to see someone with an advanced bunion “cure” it by following your recommendations. I think most of your videos are helpful, but I’m very skeptical of your opinion in this case. Respectfully. Leenie

I’ve had a bunion since I was a little kid. Became much worse and painful as I grew. I went to a podiatrist and the Dr. told me that it was genetic. Which both my parents do have. And yes, other things described in this video do enhance the bunion. I had to have surgery to have the bunion removed. For the surgery, the foot is opened up. The bunion shaved off. The big toe bone is broken, then realigned. A small metal piece is put in place on the big toe bone to keep it straight. You are obviously on conscious under surgery. Recovery is uncomfortable. But SO worth doing. Did the surgery over 5 years ago. Not one problem. Best thing I did to get rid of the pain/ bunion on my foot. It is a medical problem. My insurance paid for the surgery. I also wanted to ad; If you're think of doing the surgery for bunion removal, make sure you do a background check on the Doctor. That the Doctor is experienced in doing the surgery. I had it done here at the Cleveland Clinic from a reputable Dr. who actually specializes in bunion removals. Again, had it over 5 years ago. Not one problem.

Much of what you state is inaccurate! Bunions are typically genetic foot /ankle bone structural issues. The metatarsal and ankle have too much mobility. My grandmother, daughter, niece and myself have it! It began to develop around age 12! It wasn’t from wearing heels- though doing so can increase the pain associated with it. None of us have flat feet😊 !! My daughter developed pre teen as well. I had Lapiplasty at age 57! So glad I did!!

In my experience, consulting a podiatrist saved me. Flat feet and Ankle pronation have been the problem and this is hereditary . I have plastic orthotics in my shoes and I use toe spacers between the big toe and second toe. My podiatrist provided strengthening exercises and stretches. These measures have arrested the development of bunions. I don’t have back, hip and knee pain and my legs are straight. In addition to Dr Berg’s advice re exercises, I strongly recommend a consult with a good podiatrist first before seeing a surgeon. Correct alignment from the feet up is so important. Avoid unnecessary bunion surgery, when the biomechanics in your feet, ankles, knees, hips and your spine can be corrected through a podiatrist. Some people would not have had success with these orthotics as I have or had a bad experience with podiatrists, but it pays to do the research. I see my podiatrist annually and have been for 20 or so years. My orthotics are reviewed to see if further modifications are needed or need to be replaced . If uncorrected, progressive joint problems can develop.. which may lead to joint replacement.

They have helped me when I use them. I've found its hardest to separate the last two toes the most but after few minutes I feel a lot of relief. I've also found that a brand of shoe called Xero Shoes has helped me strengthen the muscles in my feet and I've gotten back a bit of my arch in the left foot. These shoes are very flexible and allow your feet to move naturally and flex.

Dr. Berg is a very smart, and wonderful person for what he does. But the only true living savior is Jesus Christ, he is the only true person that can give you life, he has given us all life actually. And he gave up his life so that we could have eternal life, I pray that you with understand how important this is, because there is not a single person in the world that deserves this credit more then Jesus. You will have eternal life by believing these things. God bless 💕

Customized shoe inserts! The high arch was the cause of my bunion too. I sought some help only when one day I couldn't walk. The pain was killing me. The shoe inserts are preventing my feet from rolling in.

I’m definitely starting these exercises tomorrow (currently 3:04 AM)! I injured my right big toe in Taekwondo as a teen and I’ve developed bunions due to the sport. My right foot was also broken in a car accident January last year. I had a “boxer’s” break in my right hand and severely fractured my calcaneus and had to have surgery. The swelling from the fracture went up into my ankle and so I believe I have nerve damage from that. My ankle still feels weak and I still can’t wear heels 😭 I think these exercises will help me strengthen the muscles that are still weak from atrophy and I hope to fix my bunions too! 🌸

I had a bunion on my right foot (just to the left of the toe) for maybe 10+ years. My right foot is just under an 11 and I wear 10 1/2s as my left foot is a fraction under 10 1/2. I think maybe this plus the narrow leather office shoes I used to wear were the cause. Last 2-3 years it got quite big and red and I was embarrassed to wear sandals; the bump was easily visible outside of my shoe. Thought the only way to fix would be surgery. Thankyou Dr Berg - I tried your exercises twice a day (morning when I wake and evening when I go to bed) and the darned thing has reduced 90% and is nearly gone. It took longer though - I am now in month 2. It started to reduce already in the first week by maybe 20% and the redness started to disappear. But for the first month I thought something bad had happened as my toe & second toe started hurting as well as the pads underneath and especially when walking. I figure it was probably the whole situation normalising and now the pain is much much reduced. I am wearing my sandals again and will continue to exercise both feet - it must be good for maintenance into my old age. Who would have thought !?!?! Thankyou so much again !!

Hello Dr. Berg, (I don't have bunions), I just wanted to suggest a video idea. Over the years, you have frequently had recommendations regarding blood work, blood tests, telling the ranges, and explaining what they mean. I have several in my notes. I want to have a blood test, and I want to test every little thing. A comprehensive blood test, listing all the necessary panels to have done, and how to interpret the findings would be a great video. Sidebar: I want to get my iron tested before I give my first blood do action. It is said that most men have too much iron, and it is difficult to rid the body of iron. One health advocate says iron is the most important factor in health evaluation.
