Big Toe Push: Place your big toe against a surface and push against it for a few seconds at a time.

Additional Tips:
Regularly monitor the size and shape of your bunions. If you notice significant changes or if your symptoms worsen, consult a healthcare provider.
Maintaining a healthy weight can also help reduce the stress on your feet.
For persistent pain or if the bunion causes severe foot deformity, surgical options might be necessary. Discuss these options with an orthopedic surgeon or a podiatric surgeon to understand the risks and benefits.
Managing bunions effectively requires a combination of proper footwear, orthotics, pain management, and foot exercises. While these steps can help alleviate symptoms and prevent the condition from worsening, they do not eliminate bunions. For those seeking a permanent solution, surgery may be considered. Always consult with a healthcare provider for advice tailored to your specific situation.
