(Medical-NewsWire.com, January 29, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- About 5.2 million people in the U.S. have Hallux Valgus, more popularly called bunions. A bunion is a bump the grows at the joint of the biggest toe, near the inset of the foot. This happens when the biggest toe pushes against the toe next to it, protruding the aforementioned joint.
Hydrofeet® massaging insoles helps people avoid bunions and minimize its symptoms by distributing the pressure and shock on the whole foot.
A person gets bunions when the pressure is distributed unevenly on his feet. Too much pressure on the arches and inset of the feet makes the joint in the biggest toe adapt to the situation. It becomes bigger and the skin on it becomes thicker as well. This uneven distribution of the weight on the foot is caused by structural imbalance that is usually hereditary.
Other possible causes of developing bunions are injuries, congenital foot deformities, and arthritis. Some experts also say that wearing ill-fitting shoes especially pointy-toe shoes could cause bunions.
Symptoms of growing bunions are the bump on the joint, swelling and redness of the affected area, corns and calluses at the affected area, and chronic pain. To help patients avoid and manage bunions, Mayo Clinic recommends wearing roomy shoes, taking pain medications, putting ice on the swollen area, wearing shoe inserts, and even surgery. Nevertheless, it must be noted, "Surgery isn't recommended unless a bunion causes you frequent pain or interferes with your daily activities."
One of the major effects of growing bunions is not being able to wear shoes at all. When bunions grow too big, it would be very painful for the patient to wear even regular shoes. Based on recent statistics, 90% of bunion patients are female. It would be too unfortunate for them not to be able fashionable shoes.
To make sure bunions are avoided or its growth aborted, patients could wear Hydrofeet® massaging insoles. This shoe inserts is made of FDA-approved liquid vegetable-based glycerin inside a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) coating that evenly distributes the pressure and shock on the whole foot. Hydrofeet® also absorbs most of this pressure and shocks to relieve the bunions off too much pain. It addresses the structural imbalance of the patient, thereby improving his gait.
Hydrofeet® for bunions also relieves the swelling and redness of the bunion, giving the feet a rest after a long day.
Midwest Health Solutions is an authorized seller of Hydrofeet® massaging insoles for bunions that could be purchased through Amazon.
