Expert Treatment for Fifth Toe Joint Pain and Deformity

Tailor's bunion, also called a bunionette, is a painful bony prominence that develops on the outside of the foot at the base of the little toe. This condition occurs when the fifth metatarsal bone shifts outward or enlarges, causing friction against footwear, inflammation, and discomfort that can make finding comfortable shoes difficult and affect your daily activities.


We perform thorough evaluations to assess the severity of the deformity, identify contributing factors such as foot structure or footwear choices, and determine the best course of treatment. Our personalized approaches may include wider footwear recommendations, custom orthotics to redistribute pressure, padding and protective devices, anti-inflammatory treatments, and when conservative methods prove insufficient, surgical correction to realign the bone.


Our focus is on relieving pain and irritation, improving shoe fit and comfort, and preventing progression of the deformity. Whether through conservative management or surgical intervention, we're dedicated to helping you walk comfortably, wear the shoes you want, and maintain an active lifestyle free from the limitations of this common foot condition.
