This gentleman is going to wear sports orthotics inside his sports shoes to keep the ankle straight, the arch up and to prevent his knee pain. Without the orthotic you can see that the arch collapses and the ankle leans in.

Bunions! There are many different types of bunions.
Some are surgical and some are non-surgical so it is important to understand which type of bunion you have.
For example, for the non-surgical type we would put a corrective orthotic inside the shoe to get the ankle straight.
We would recommend toe socks to make the toes aligned and silicone dividers to get the toes in a straight position, and shoes to accommodate these.
We would also incorporate some foot exercises to get this foot back to full alignment and strength again.
In this case here, we have a foot where the bone has displaced. This would need surgery because the head of the bone has enlarged.
So, if we only do surgery in this case the ankle might still lean in and the patient will still suffer after surgery.
So again, we would do what we did in this case to get the foot in perfect alignment and strong before we proceed with surgery to remove the size of the bone.

Look at this joint when on the orthotic and off of the orthotic.
The ankle is leaning in, the arch is collapsed down, and the big toe joint is twisted out of place.
Now, we need to get the ankle straight and to do that we lift the ankle and arch with a very specialised custom orthotic.
Now, look at the alignment. The ankle is straight, the arch is up and the big toe joint is perfectly straight. No more bony protrusions or bunion.

Using custom corrective Orthotics helps the alignment of the tilted pelvis.
It helps to prevent extra pressure on the left big toe when running, and aligns the joints and equalises the stress to all other joints.
