Cause #8: Polio
Polio is a very serious problem that can cause a number of complications. If it is left untreated, polio can become fatal. Polio is caused by the poliovirus that can be spread from person to person. The infected person may experience problems as the virus spreads from the brain and spinal cord to other areas of the body.
One of the main problems associated with polio is paralysis. If this occurs in the feet, you may experience difficulty with mobility. This can contribute to problems such as bunions, since you will have a hard time getting your feet to move in a healthy, fluid manner.
