Bunion causes

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]

Overview

Causes

The causes of bunions are unclear. Bunions sometimes run in families. Being born with abnormal foot bones may increase likelihood of developing a bunion. Wearing narrow-toed, high-heeled shoes may lead to the development of a bunion.
