Potato Compresses for Treating Bumps:

If you're dealing with bumps on your big toes, one of the most effective methods is a compress made from raw grated potatoes. Apply it to the affected areas for 15-20 minutes. After that, wrap the area with plastic wrap and put on a wool sock to generate heat. This will help reduce inflammation, especially if the bump is causing discomfort.

Salt-Iodine Foot Soaks:

Regular salt-iodine foot baths are an effective remedy for foot care. To prepare the solution, add 2 tablespoons of salt and 10 drops of iodine (tincture) to 1 liter of water. Immerse your feet in the solution for 10-15 minutes, then gently dry your feet. Next, holding your big toe by the tip, make circular movements for five minutes. Finish the procedure by applying iodine on the bumps. www.webzdrav.ru

As is often the case, it all started with the wrong shoes and everyone's favorite stilettos; they are indeed the culprits behind that bothersome bunion, especially when the problem becomes unbearable. I started applying Valgorect and wore a special brace. The foot baths, combined with their therapeutic effect, were quite enjoyable, and after a while, the bunion disappeared, along with the pain and the unattractive gait.

When my bunions started to grow, my doctor recommended foot braces. I went to the pharmacy, and they matched me with some. But I noticed that when I wear them, I start to feel pain. I went to another doctor. He said it was because they were improperly fitted; they should be soft, not plastic. Because of this, my foot joints have suffered even more. In general, now I wear different braces, do exercises, and take Sustalife. I feel much better now. The pain has gone, but I’ll only find out if it’s better with the bunion or not during my appointment with the doctor.

My review is a personal experience of treating bunions on my big toes.

Here are just a few folk medicine recipes that I used for treating bunions on my feet:

BUNION SALVE

Take a raw egg with a white shell. Place it in a small jar or cup with a capacity of about 50 ml. The egg should fit there in a vertical position! Then pour 70% acetic acid over the egg. Close the lid and leave it all in a dark place for 2 weeks. During this time, the egg should completely dissolve in the acid. If there are any solid particles left – remove them. The liquid fraction should be shaken and thoroughly mixed with 10 g of turpentine (sold in pharmacies) and 1 tablespoon of butter. Treatment – every other day, apply iodine and this salve to the bunions until it runs out. 1 day – iodine, the next day – the salve.

BURDOCK FOR BUNIONS

Burdock is my favorite folk remedy for bunions. While it's summer, I constantly use it for treatment. I treat bunions for both myself and my mom this way – I take 2 large burdock leaves, smear the greener top side with turpentine, wrap my foot in the burdock, fix it with cling film on top, and put on a wool sock. I keep it for 1-2 hours. Then I remove it and apply butter to the skin. During exacerbation, it can be done daily, but no more than 3-5 days. Otherwise, the skin can be burned. For prevention – once every 10 days.

Daily for prevention of bunions and gout – you can simply wrap your feet with burdock (without turpentine) and wear a sock for fixation. All summer long!

PROPOLIS FOR BUNIONS
Applications made of propolis are an excellent remedy for bunions on feet! In your fingers, knead a piece of propolis until it becomes soft, and apply it to the bunion. It can be secured with a band-aid. You can walk with such a compress all day long.

BUNION LIQUID

You will need: 300 g of spirit or vodka, 30 g of ammonia, 30 g of camphor, 30 g of ground hot red pepper, 15 g of powdered bodyaga. Shake everything and apply the composition to the bunions on the feet. Be sure to wear a wool sock after the procedure.

CABBAGE LEAF FOR BUNIONS ON FEET

This folk method is good for children and people with delicate skin. Beat the cabbage leaf with a wooden mallet until the veins on the leaf become soft enough. Smear the cabbage leaf with honey and sprinkle it with salt. Soak your feet in a basin and then immediately place the prepared leaves on them. Wrap the leaves with cling film on top and put on socks. Keep for at least 1 hour. It is better to do this before bedtime.

CLAY TREATS BUNIONS

You will need 200 ml of water, 50 g of clay (better - red), 1 tablespoon of fine salt, and 3 drops of turpentine.

First, dissolve the salt in the water. Then gradually add this water to the clay until you get a plastic mass. Form a cake out of the clay.

Keep in mind that we made the water with a reserve. A small part of it was used to make the clay cake. The remaining water is used further for the procedure.

Treatment: on steamed legs. First, smear the bunions with a small amount of turpentine. Then place the clay cakes on them. On top of the cakes – a cotton or wool fabric soaked in salted water. Wrap everything in cling film. And keep the compress warm either with a wool sock or a scarf. Wait for 2 hours, rinse with warm water, and dry off with a rough towel.

Bumps on the big toes.

Causes of bumps: The bumps on the feet, also known as "bumpies," occur due to tight shoes, a preference for high heels, or flat feet. In children, they may arise from bone diseases, cerebral palsy, poliomyelitis, or injuries. Bumps on the big toes can also occur as a complication of polyarthritis or gout.

Folk treatment for foot bumps is a lengthy process aimed primarily at eliminating the causes and treating the underlying disease, such as gout.

Improve your diet – it's a must! Avoid salty foods, spices, fatty and sweet items!

And leave the heels for youth under 20.
