Pune, India -- (SBWire) -- 08/18/2018 --Market Highlights:

A bunion is an enlargement of bone or tissue around the joint at the base of the big toe. The big toe may turn toward the second toe. The tissues around the joint may be swollen and tender. People in occupations such as teaching and nursing, which involve a lot of standing and walking are susceptible to bunions. Moreover, professions such as ballet dancers are also susceptible to severe repetitive stress. Women can develop bunions and other foot problems during pregnancy as the hormonal changes loosen the ligaments and flatten the feet. Bunions are also associated with arthritis, which damages the cartilage within the joint. There is a high prevalence of bunion (hallux valgus) in the overall population with 23% of adults aged 18-65 years and 35.7% of adults over 65 years of age. Usually, the prevalence is higher in women (30%) than in males (13%) and that of elderly is approximately 35.7%.

The treatment includes the use of bunion shields or pads, which can reduce pressure on the bunion. Custom insole orthotics can be made depending on the structure of the foot and severity of the bunion. Such insoles can slow the progression of the bunion. Bracing is used as a part of post-operative rehabilitation therapy. Furthermore, anti-inflammatory medications such as acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin, ecotrin), ibuprofen, and naproxen (anaprox, naprelan, naprosyn, aleve) may ease the inflammation and pain. This inflammation can often be relieved by a local injection of cortisone.

Osteoporosis causes decrease in the bone density causing fractures even after minor trauma. Almost 8.9 million people suffer from the disease annually causing an osteoporotic fracture every 3 seconds. It majorly affects menopausal women and causes 1 out of 3 women over the age of 50 to experience an osteoporotic fracture. The most common complication is a recurrence of the bunion, reported in as many as 16% of cases. This may happen when only the bony prominence is shaved off and the underlying deformity is not corrected.
The global bunion treatment market is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 6.5% during the forecast period 2017-2023.
