What causes bunions to form?

Any time that there is uneven pressure and stress on your foot, a bunion can develop due to your big toe joint becoming unstable. There are several factors that can contribute to bunions developing. For example, if you frequently wear tight fitting shoes (like high heels) or work in a field that puts a lot of stress on your feet, you might be at an increased risk for developing bunions.

Individuals with inflammatory types of arthritis, like rheumatoid arthritis, are also at an increased risk. Most commonly, bunions are caused by an inherited foot problem. Although the bunions themselves are not inherited, the foot types that make you more prone to developing them are.
