Do high heels cause bunions?
Wearing high heels doesn’t necessarily cause a bunion, but it can exacerbate one that is forming. Shoes with a narrow toe box, like high heels, push your toes together in an abnormal position and make bunions worse. In other words, high heels with a narrow toe box do not cause the onset of the bunion, but increase the symptoms.
No matter your bunions are hereditary or from prolonged wearing of poorly fitted shoes, we can start with conservative options like custom orthotics, a bunion shield or night splints.
