A bunion can be described as a bump on the side of your big toe. However, an important thing to remember here is that bunions are more than a common 'foot' deformity. The bony bump you find at the base of the big toe can be extremely painful. 

Under normal conditions, the perfectly aligned joints of your foot absorb the impact generated by your heel while touching the ground. Your foot arch collapses and causes the feet to flatten so that your body remains stable. Your big toe is the last part to push off the ground when you take every step. Hence big toe support for bunions  is important. 

Before you select commonly available treatment options, you have to understand the real cause of the deformity. Remember, you not only have to look at the position where the bump is located, but you also have to see how bunions have affected your foot function.

Most foot sleeves cover the heel, providing assistance and support where you need it most. Some foot sleeves are designed to reduce the effects of splints and plantar fasciitis and decrease run-related injuries.

Constantly fatigued muscles and poor circulations are the top reasons to invest in compression sleeves. On the other hand, compression foot sleeves can also be used as sleeping aids, allowing you a good night's rest.
