10 Causes of Bunions
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Cause #5: Hypermobility
Hypermobility, in regard to the feet, is a condition in which the bones move a lot more than they normally do.
If your big toe bone moves a lot more than it should, you develop the risk of bunions. The joints in your feet are meant to move, but if you move them too much then they can fall out of alignment. This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t move these joints at all – just be cautious that you’re not moving them excessively.
