Bunion:"Hallux valgus" is a  bony protrusion from the outside edge of the joint at the base of the big (first) toe. Three times more common in women than men. The term bunion is derived from the Latin word, bunio, which means turnip. Usually curable with treatment and preventive measures to guard against recurrence. Wear wide-toed shoes that fit well. Don't wear high heels or shoes without room for toes in their normal position.
