CWR - definately take care of problems you may have now to avoid even bigger problems when you get older.

Sadly, my feet are probably the one reason I will never get to do a TRI - not happy about that....

Keep us posted.

CWR - I have a slightly different spin on this (you knew I would ). I have a bunion on my right foot. I brought it up at a chiro appt and guess what? He adjusted my ankle, foot and toes. No more pain! It's pretty rare to find a chiro who knows anything about ajustments beyond neck and spine, but this guy is worth his weight in gold. He promises me it will not get worse if I keep them adjusted since a bunion is caused by the bone moving out of the joint.

So, for me for now, I am staying away from the pediatrist and visiting the chiro every few weeks. He also told me to periodically pull on my toes (pull them straight out) until they crack. They will help keep them in the joint correctly.

For whatever it's worth........

mtbdarby - Please ask your Chiro why the bone is moving out of the joint? Basically, there has to be a cause.
