Bunions, X-ray
Bunions. Coloured X-ray of an elderly womans deformed inward-turning toes due to bunions (orange, lower centre). This deformity (hallux valgus) is caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes, such as pointed high-heels. The rubbing of the shoes often causes a bunion (swelling of the large toe joint) to form. In the case of a bunion being large enough to impair toe movement, surgery may be required to straighten the joint

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the unfortunate consequences of wearing ill-fitting shoes. In the image, we see a coloured X-ray of an elderly woman's feet, specifically her deformed inward-turning toes affected by bunions. The vibrant orange hue highlights the severity of this condition known as hallux valgus. Bunions are often caused by years of wearing pointed high-heels or other unsuitable footwear that constantly rub against the toes. This repetitive friction leads to swelling and malformation in the large toe joint, resulting in a bunion. Sadly, for some individuals like this elderly woman, these bunions can become so pronounced that they impair normal toe movement. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its visual impact but also in its representation of a common foot disorder experienced by many. It serves as a reminder that proper shoe selection is crucial for maintaining foot health and preventing such deformities. In severe cases where mobility is compromised, surgical intervention may be necessary to straighten the affected joint. This medical procedure aims to alleviate pain and restore functionality to the foot. Science Photo Library has expertly captured both the aesthetic appeal and educational value within this image - showcasing bone structure while shedding light on an important aspect of healthcare: taking care of our feet.
