Anyone have a similiar situation and just not get the surgery?

There are many natural remedies for bunions, just do a little research. A castor oil poultice applied often would likely work. Best of luck.

Try toe separators, they are especially helpful before the bunion gets very large.

Let’s see—-you have a professor of Internal Medicine and a specialist in foot surgery stating the “cure” you espoused is crap. So your opinion is based on superior education and experience???? Or you googled it😂😂😂

I was told by a foot specialist that unless there is pain don't have an operation; because having an operative bunion fix can cause the foot to have pain.

This device does work, I purchased one. You can also get on Amazon. When you go to the check out on this site it knocks $5 off the price thus cheaper than amazon. Also, amazing that I received it the next day. No cost for shipping,

I believe laser surgery for bunions may now be available.
