Hi, I never really have thought I had bunions till now. I thought it was the normal shape of my foot, until now. I have small bumps on each side of my big toe.

This is a pic. Can upload into onto here since I'm on phone but here a link http://oi63.tinypic.com/ms15ys.jpg

Any help would be nice!

    Great, Cassie!!  At least there was no talk of surgery.  I would think that the point of those inserts is to give you good arch support which hopefully will help with your foot pointing inward as you walk.  Glad to hear you are asking him questions about it too.  Anything you can do to keep those bunions from getting worse is a good thing!  Speaking from experience, bunion surgery is a tough thing!
