With the onset of middle age, women often encounter an unpleasant problem - deformation of the big toe occurs, which leads to the formation of so-called "bumps". They bring with them not only various inconveniences (the impossibility of wearing shoes of their size, the development of complexes due to constraints, etc.), but also constant pain, which can be so intense that it is almost impossible to step on the foot. Usually the tumor is directed to the inside of the leg (the thumb deviates outward), but in rare cases there are
bumps on the feet (the thumb deviates upward). This leads to even more serious consequences much faster.
The reasons why there are bumps on the legs are not fully understood. Cases of outgrowths were noted in case of abnormalities in the endocrine system, in the event of flat feet, in injuries or wearing uncomfortable shoes. Genetic factors are not discounted. But, fortunately, the owners of this ailment, the treatment of cones on the legs is possible at almost any age and at any degree of deformation. This is achieved in several ways: with the help of orthopedic appliances, surgical intervention and folk remedies.
The most affordable and common way is to treat the bumps on the legs with special orthopedic shoe inserts. Of course, such treatment does not guarantee one hundred percent disposal of the resulting deformation. But at least it can prevent its further development and provide almost painless movement without outside help.
Surgical treatment of bumps on the legs in most cases is not welcome. This is because the bulk of the operations are based either on the grinding of the protruding bone, or on the complete removal of its protruding area. In both cases, the patient leaves the clinic with limited movement. In the first case, pain can remain for the rest of your life, and in addition, there is a very high risk of serious injury or a recurrence of the disease, and in the second, the big toe rests only on the skin. Positive results can only be after a series of plastic surgeries, including not only removing the "bump", but also eliminating flat feet by moving the tendons.
Treatment of bumps on the legs with the help of
alternative medicine can only temporarily remove pain and inflammation in the joint. It cannot cope with the deformation of the joint itself, and in some cases leads to complications. Therefore, for those who have clearly expressed painful bumps on their legs, treatment with folk remedies will not help. And to recover, they should go to the clinic.
Each of the presented methods has both its advantages and disadvantages. And only as a result of a series of complex and lengthy operations is it possible to get rid of the problem. Therefore, you should never forget that the best treatment for cones on the legs is the timely prevention of their occurrence. To do this, you must follow a few of the following rules:
- wear only comfortable shoes;
- conduct daily massage and gymnastics for the feet;
- if a problem occurs, consult an orthopedic surgeon immediately.
