Tailor’s Bunions may change the structure or function of the foot and ankle over time. A careful evaluation can clarify the condition and the treatment options that fit your needs.

Treatment Options

Treatment may include wider shoes, padding, orthotics, and activity changes to reduce pressure along the outside of the foot.

Surgical Correction

When pain persists or the deformity is significant, surgery may be considered to realign the fifth metatarsal and reduce the painful prominence.

When to Seek Care

Evaluation is recommended when the bump becomes painful, inflamed, difficult to fit in shoes, or increasingly prominent.

Schedule an appointment with Dr. Neville to discuss treatment for a tailor’s bunion.
