Due to the deformation of the joint, the big toe deviates towards the inside of the foot, over time becoming more and more pressed against the toes. In severe cases, the thumb even extends beyond the second finger.
At the level of the metatarsophalangeal joint, a protruding growth appears on the side of the foot, which is sometimes very painful. Popularly, this disease is called a “bone”; in other words, a lump forms.
When treatment for such deformities is not started in a timely manner, they will worsen significantly over time. Due to the lack of therapy, inflammation of the joint capsule, pain in the area of the metatarsophalangeal joint, and hyperemia may appear. With further progression of the disease, other toes other than the big toes will be involved in the process.
Violation of the joints of the second and other toes is expressed in their elevation above the lower surface of the foot. At the same time, the shape of small fingers changes, it becomes “hammer-shaped”.
Bumps on the toes are not just a cosmetic defect. Due to hallux valgus deformity, the following may form:
In addition, changes and injuries occur in the ligaments and joints at the base of the thumb.
An important and main reason for the appearance of hallux valgus is a violation of the biomechanics of the foot, which causes disturbances in the metatarsophalangeal joints, which provokes improper distribution of loads on the foot.
Most often, this problem is diagnosed in women than in men, due to the fact that, neglecting their health, women constantly wear physiologically incorrect and uncomfortable shoes.
It should be noted that high-heeled shoes are especially harmful. When such shoes are worn regularly on the feet, the load on the foot is distributed unnaturally, and the shock-absorbing force falls not on the toes, which is provided by nature, but on the metatarsophalangeal joints of the feet.
In this case, the fingers are constantly in the wrong position, not performing their function. The gait in such shoes is unstable, especially with stiletto heels. Instability affects:
Considering that the ligamentous apparatus of the foot is much more elastic in women, we can confidently say that wearing the wrong shoes will in any case lead to the destruction of the joints of the feet.
Low shoes, without any heels, are also very harmful to the feet. We are talking about ballet shoes or slippers. The process of walking is uncomfortable, and the foot is constantly in a physiologically unnatural position. This also provokes deformation of the joints due to improper distribution of the load on the feet.
Pain appears in the foot due to compression of the joints by hard and narrow shoes, corns appear on the soles of the feet and abrasions on the toes.
However, not only uncomfortable shoes affect the appearance of hallux valgus; several other main factors contribute to this. It is necessary to take into account the patient’s body weight, age, genetic predisposition, as well as other joint diseases.
Flat feet are a common cause of the formation of a bunion on the foot. In addition, a destructive process can develop as a result of foot injuries or human activities associated with constant loads on the front of the foot.
High levels of uric acid in the blood also increase the risk of joint deformation and salt deposits on their surface.
Hallux valgus manifests itself primarily as a small bump on the side of the foot. Sometimes such a bump may appear on the little finger. In the first stages of the disease, the deviation of the metatarsal bone is not too large, but for a long time it can be perceived solely as a cosmetic defect.
This deformity transforms into a disease when the lump above the big toe becomes painful and interferes with wearing usual shoes. The bumps may also become red and swollen. After a while, the thumb will begin to slowly move away from the edge, pressing against the index finger.
If a person constantly wears tight and uncomfortable shoes, then the formation of abrasions and calluses on the toes begins. In many cases, ingrown nail edges appear. If these signs become obvious, you should immediately consult an orthopedic doctor.
In addition to an external examination and examination of signs of hallux valgus, the doctor also prescribes an x-ray of the bones of the feet to determine the extent of their damage.
In this case, concomitant diseases are often detected, for example, a cyst, inflammation of the periosteum or arthritis.
Bumps on the joints in the toe area are treated in two ways:
Conservative therapy for growths is used in the early stages of the disease; it is expressed in relieving inflammatory processes in the foot and inhibiting the development of the disease.
Treatment usually allows the patient to avoid surgery. Drug therapy is prescribed only by a doctor.
To reduce pressure on the metatarsophalangeal joints, it is recommended to put pads made of soft material, such as felt, felt or foam rubber, into shoes. Doctors strongly recommend that patients, especially women, stop wearing tight shoes, high heels, and models with tapered toes.
Bumps of the thumbs and above the little fingers in advanced cases are removed surgically. Currently, low-traumatic methods have been created for surgical treatment of bone growths of the metatarsal bone, as well as for the treatment of deformities of the metatarsophalangeal joints of the fingers.
Within a day, the patient is allowed to stand on the operated limb. After one and a half to two months, the foot will fully restore its functionality.
However, people who have undergone such surgery should remember the importance of preventing foot diseases. Returning to wearing uncomfortable shoes will cause a relapse of the disease, which will be more difficult to cure.
Traditional medicine also offers its own methods of treating bunions on the big toes. As a rule, such methods are expressed in the use of drugs that dissolve uric acid crystals already deposited on the metatarsophalangeal joints of the big toes.
To eliminate bumps, you need to rub into the affected area:
Foot baths with a decoction of potato peelings are also considered effective against bumps on joints in the leg area. You can take an infusion of lingonberry leaves orally.
In any case, it is important to remember that a lump cannot be cured solely with folk remedies. The problem can only be solved with the involvement of a doctor.
In order to prevent diseases of the lower extremities, it is necessary:
If you experience discomfort, pain, severe leg fatigue, or a burning sensation around the big toe, you should immediately have the growths examined by an orthopedic surgeon and, if necessary, begin treatment for the bump.
Many women in middle age begin to worry about problems such as bunions or bumps on their big toes . This pathology is called hallux valgus or transverse flatfoot. The reasons for the appearance of bumps can be very different: hereditary predisposition, wearing uncomfortable shoes with narrow toes, high heels, an overly active lifestyle or sudden weight gain, for example during pregnancy. Growing cones not only disfigure a woman’s leg, but also cause pain. Is it possible to cure bunions on the thumbs using traditional methods?

After my friend underwent an operation to remove these bones and after her stories about her experience, I realized that now I need to pay attention to my feet. And don’t forget that stilettos and high heels are evening shoes) Thank you very much for the advice! Regarding the coils, I haven’t heard of that before!
Thank you for your comment! Yes, you need to think about your feet from a young age, otherwise high heels and narrow toes will make themselves felt later. It seems like I never wore heels very often, but recently I noticed that bumps began to appear. Now I myself have started to apply these tips. I hope they will help.
When they told me that heels were harmful, I didn’t believe it. Well, a heel is an adornment of a woman’s foot. And she wore 10-centimeter stilettos to the point of fanaticism, everywhere and everywhere. And now I’ve learned from bitter experience that lumps actually formed. I'll try to use your methods. Thank you!
Thank you, Svetlana, for your comment!
Yes, high, thin heels are certainly beautiful, but it is better to wear them very rarely, only on special occasions.
I hope these tips help you! Good luck and good health to you! ??
Besides that, I also bought splints for my thumb at an orthopedic pharmacy... I wear them at night, because... It’s impossible to walk in them... and you won’t believe it... the lump began to shrink! my joy knows no bounds...it means all this torment is not in vain. In general, one of the signs of bumps on the legs is an incorrect position in relation to the axis of the body and therefore the pressure on the foot is not in the place where it should be... it’s not our fault... but the genes of our parents... well, in the sense that we were born that way... . Thank you for the article.
I also heard about tires. I'm very glad they helped you! ??
The reel option seemed useful and fun! You still need to get to the orthopedist.
Yes, this method also seemed very interesting to me. True, not everyone has such coils. Grandmothers definitely have it from past times??
I have a friend who is going through this problem very acutely right now. It's scary to decide to have surgery. And nothing helps. I, too, have seen enough of everything... It is imperative to take care of everything. No comments here.
Yes...No one wants to undergo surgery. It is better to take care of and choose the right shoes from a very young age, so as not to suffer later..
A friend of mine has the same problem, I’ll send her a link to your site. You have a lot of good advice, thank you!
Thank you, Oksana! I hope your friend finds the advice useful!
Olya, bay leaf infusion helped me. A whole pack of bay leaves is brewed with 0.5 liters of boiling water, and the intake is spread over the whole day.
When I did this procedure, I completely forgot about it. and a month later I discovered that there were NO cones.
Thank you, Anyuta, for your comment and your recipe! Very interesting, I've never heard of him. Glad it helped you! ??
And what, should you drink the infusion?? or lotions for the leg?
I wore high heels all the time at work; I believed that it was necessary to correspond to my status. And now a small lump has started to appear on one leg. I walk a lot, it hurts. Today I read your article, went to the orthopedic department of the pharmacy and bought a special device that can be worn between the big toe and the next toe. It is made of silicone, even in sandals it is not very noticeable. I also copied the recommendations and will do the exercises. I'll try to rectify the situation. Thank you!
I encountered the same problem... I also bought silicone pads between my fingers from the orthopedic department. They are sold in 2 pieces at once (in a simple pharmacy for 1 piece or more). And since there is no wooden coil, and only one leg hurts, I tried 2 gel pads between the toes at once. They hold up well, do not interfere with walking, but this is only at home and at night, as was previously advised. Get well soon everyone.
Thank you, Olya, for your valuable advice, because I have a problem with lumps!
I know firsthand about these bumps on my legs, but I didn’t encounter this in middle age, but much earlier, by the age of twenty?? And all because of the desire for high heels and uncomfortable shoes. Olya, your advice is good (as always), I will apply it.
Unfortunately, many people in their youth do not understand what their high heels will lead to...
The special orthopedic German splint Hallufix helps to cure this disease very well. If you wear it regularly for a long time, the bone shrinks and the finger is restored to its place. Moreover, after you have been treated and wear comfortable shoes, the bone will not begin to deform again.
Yes, tires help a lot.
Thank you, Katerina, for your comment??
Girls, dear, what are you writing? What cabbage leaves, what coils. You first need to determine what you have: gout, a swollen joint, or a curved joint. If there is gout, you can smear and apply it, but if it is a deformity, everything will be useless. Gel inserts should only be worn if the 4 small fingers do not deviate. If they deviate - NO! Otherwise they will also begin to deform. And especially hard coils...
You have to wear bandages, do massages, do exercises, it’s a lot of work. And heels are not always the cause, the main thing is flat feet.
Girl with beautiful hair, I don’t know how to contact you... my orthopedist also recommended the Hallufix splint. How long do you wear it? Is it comfortable to wear? And is it effective? Katerina, the bone will not shrink, the joint is corrected, the bones will remain in place... How long is that for a long time? A year, two, three? Did you have a massage course before wearing it? I was recommended to start with a massage...
I don’t know how to contact you.. The article describes methods that help at the initial stage. And coils and cabbage leaves really help some. But if there is a large curvature of the fingers and a large stage, then treatment by a doctor is required. Or valgus splints may still help. It helps some.
HELLO GIRLS, DON'T BE SO WORRY)) for example, I easily got rid of a bone)) after I came across Lera Kudryavtseva's blog, where she talks about how she dealt with the same problem, read it for anyone interested lera-kydryavceva.blogspot.de
Girls, there is now a very good remedy for the treatment of hallux valgus, the so-called “bunions” on the leg; this is a unique fixator called Altus Pro, without any pain or discomfort.
I’ve been suffering from bunions for about 15 years now, and I’ve tried everything but the “Valgus PRO” fixator and gel pads between the fingers, massage, tea tree oil compresses and much more... Everything is useless... The finger is not very deformed, but the pain interferes with life.. I provide pain relief “Arcoxia”, but you can’t take it for a long time... Ordinary insoles help against flat feet... I haven’t found a way out of this situation yet..
Marina, I’m going to buy “Valgus PRO” retainers. I want to know in more detail which ones you bought and how long you used them for?
The appearance of painful bumps at the base of the big toes is a very common problem. But, unfortunately, many do not attach much importance to this in time. But it is at an early stage that the disease can be completely eliminated.
Enlargement of the bones and curvature of the big toes cause not only aesthetic inconvenience, disfiguring the feet and making it impossible to wear open shoes. A serious orthopedic problem also appears, which in severe cases even leads to great difficulty in walking and severe pain. With the appearance of cones and deformation of the fingers, other bones of the feet, legs, ligaments, and tendons also change pathologically.
There are many remedies, medicinal and folk, but complete treatment is only possible under the supervision of a doctor. At the initial stage you can completely get rid of this problem, at the middle stage you can stop the pathology, and at an advanced stage only surgical intervention can help. So, at the first signs of the appearance of lumps on the thumbs, you should immediately contact an orthopedist, who will identify the cause of the disease in order to choose the appropriate treatment method. Such bumps often appear on the little fingers - this is also a reason to immediately consult a doctor.
There are several reasons for this disease. The main risk group is women over 30 years of age. In men, the appearance of bunions on the big toes is much less common. This is explained by the fact that most women wear uncomfortable, narrow dress shoes with high heels. Constantly wearing such shoes over time leads to serious foot deformities. But this is not the only reason for the appearance of bones on the fingers.
Some experts see the main cause as a high level of uric acid in the blood, which leads to disruption of purine metabolism. Acid microcrystals are deposited on joints and cartilage. This is due to eating disorders, taking certain medications, heavy workloads, and frequent overwork.
Other external and internal factors for the appearance of bunions on the toes:
The most common diagnosis is transverse flatfoot. But the cause of the appearance of such bumps may be another disease:
Symptoms of the initial stage: a small, still soft tubercle appears on the big toe (sometimes on the little finger), which constantly hurts, there may be swelling and redness, in the area of the feet there is a feeling of aching and burning, the legs quickly get tired when walking. The big toes bend up to 15 degrees from their normal position.
At the middle stage, the angle of inclination of the toe increases to 20 degrees towards the first metatarsal bone. The lump is already becoming hard and there is a problem with choosing shoes. Painful calluses form on the soles. Pain in the feet becomes constant.
At an advanced, pronounced stage, the angle of inclination of the thumb is more than 30 degrees. Bumps also appear on the phalanges of the remaining toes. It is no longer possible to wear ordinary shoes; special orthopedic ones are required. Very severe pain makes it difficult to move and difficult to stand on your feet for a long time.
Traditional methods are effective in the early stages of the disease, mainly helping only to alleviate the condition - relieve pain and inflammation. But they don’t completely get rid of the bump; they are good to use as an aid. To completely get rid of the disease, medication or even surgery is required.
The tactics of medical treatment of a bump on the leg depends on the established diagnosis. Complex therapy is usually used - orthopedic, medicinal, physiotherapeutic methods. They are effective only in the initial stages of the disease. Some are used before surgery to reduce pain and inflammation.
This option is the most common, because many people endure until the last minute and see a doctor late. Modern medicine already has hundreds of types of such operations available. They are divided into three main groups:
The most common surgeries to correct big toe deformities and bunions are:
Postoperative rehabilitation therapy depends on the operation performed and can take from two weeks to six months. The price range is also large. In order not to bring yourself to such a state, it is better to take preventive measures in time.
When the first symptoms appear, you should first consult an orthopedist. At this stage, physiotherapeutic methods in combination with folk remedies effectively help. Performing regular special exercises for the legs, massage, wearing only comfortable shoes, changing habits, and proper nutrition will help eliminate the problem in time.
Bunions on the toes are a common pathological process of the musculoskeletal system. The disease occurs more often in women than in men. Elderly people often suffer from bumps. The disease brings cosmetic defects and leads to changes in the phalanx of the finger. Many patients perceive the disorder as a change in aesthetic appearance, turning to a doctor already in protracted chronic stages, when pain occurs, leading to limited movement in the foot.
Growths on the big toe cause changes in the structure of the foot. Transverse flatfoot develops. The physiological structure of the feet leads to disease.
When a red bump appears, the sign indicates inflammation in the joint. Patients note that the pain is much worse.
There are known external and internal causes of the formation of cones. Bumps on the toes appear when wearing high-heeled shoes, when there is a strong load on the front area of the feet. This is considered the main external factor in the formation of bulges.
Factors causing the formation of the disease:
Internal factors are associated with the physiological structure of the foot and a number of diseases, as a result of which the calcium content in the bones decreases. The ligamentous apparatus becomes weak:
These sources cause curvature in the joint and fingers.
In addition to bumps, a growth sometimes forms on top or near the little finger in the area of the thumb. A bone spur is a hard, immobile formation. It bleeds when rubbed.
Bumps on the toes are located in different places:
Reasons for the appearance of growths:
The first symptoms of the disease:
The disease occurs in children and adults. The process occurs because bones in childhood are extremely flexible. A possible complication after rickets or polio in a child. Cones in children can be cured without consequences or complications if you consult a doctor in time and start treatment.
In the initial period of the disease, it will be possible to completely remove the bumps in the leg area in the absence of large growths. Such treatment is possible in the later stages, but it will not be possible to completely remove the tubercles.
Treatment without surgical intervention is carried out according to the following algorithm:
If there is a large change in the shape of the foot, the necessary treatment is applied as follows:
The ointment will be able to treat inflammation, but will not be able to correct the altered shape of the foot.
The surgical method of removing cones is prescribed for severe flat feet, when types of conservative procedures have failed or the pain factor has sharply progressed again.
There are a number of known types of surgical treatment:
During the operation, the cones are completely removed. Sometimes it is possible to remove parts of the bone tissue.
It is useful to perform surgical treatment on soft tissues and bones together. During operations, restoration of bone disorders and ligaments is carried out. This type of surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The rehabilitation period always depends on the surgical technique. In some cases, patients get back on their feet already on the fourth day. After surgery, be sure to follow the necessary doctor’s recommendations. In the postoperative period, it is important to wear orthopedic shoes and use protective methods using pads between the toes.
A set of exercises is selected by the doctor. It is more often recommended to walk barefoot, first on your toes, then on your heels and on the sides, excluding the places where bunions form.
It is not difficult to treat a disease with gymnastics:
In the next type of gymnastics, you need to throw a small ball on the floor and try to reach it with your feet.
It is recommended to treat the disease using the “bicycle” method, stretching the toe back and forth. Repeat the exercise at least 8 times a day.
The exercise is performed on the floor:
Gymnastic exercises must be performed regularly, alternating between each other.
Spurs on the feet and big toes are benign tumors that form on the bones. Such growths grow in the opposite direction from the rest of the fingers, turning into huge bumps. If it is the little finger, then it bends towards the other fingers. The growths create discomfort when walking because shoes press on them. A callus appears above the spur. The legs begin to suffer from other diseases. It could be arthritis or varicose veins. Often a person feels pain for no apparent reason. At this point, you need to feel the foot or finger, depending on where exactly the pain is felt. If a small bump is found, it means that a spur has begun to form.
There are many reasons for the appearance of spurs on the toe. However, most often it appears on the big toe due to tight shoes that create friction, as well as due to inflammation or due to deformation of the foot. As a result of narrowing of the phalangeal joints, they become inflamed.
A spur on the fingers causes the thumb or little finger to deviate to the side. Doctors have known how to treat spurs for a long time, but there is very little information about the reasons for the appearance of spurs on the lower extremities. Scientists suggest that the disease develops due to the following negative factors:
Damage to the metatarsophalangeal and interphalangeal joints causes cartilage weakness. Many women who love fashionable but tight shoes develop growths. These shoes are characterized by excessive rigidity and high heels. However, spurs on the fingers and feet also appear in residents of the northern regions who are not at all familiar with dress shoes. Another assumption of scientists is that the growth of the growth on top of the fingers and feet occurs due to the fact that the loads on the feet are unevenly distributed.
Next, let's look at the symptoms of the disease. First, a very small spur appears on the foot under the toes, and then over time it begins to grow. The appearance is indicated by pain in the big toe or heel. Unpleasant sensations can appear and disappear throughout the day and so on every day. The first steps after the pain disappears cause discomfort. Painful sensations especially often appear at night, and for no particular reason. Often, due to pain, a person’s gait temporarily changes. This is the result of the patient trying to relieve pressure on the inflamed area. Due to improper loading, transverse flat feet sometimes occur.
Pain in the fingers occurs due to accumulated fluid that irritates the nerve endings. When other joints become distorted, inflammation of the tendons begins. As a result, the ligaments and soft tissues swell.
Today, many sufferers of this disease know how to treat a chicken spur on a finger of the lower or upper limb. Although this problem is more often encountered by older people, a third of whom know firsthand what chicken spur is. An orthopedist can give the following recommendations on how to get rid of the disease in question:
If the growths appear due to inflammation of the ligaments, then you can try to get rid of them with the help of therapeutic massage, physiotherapy or herbal baths.
Surgical intervention involves the following steps:
For each of these operations, which last 60 minutes, general anesthesia is provided. Surgery today is fundamentally different from the operations performed by surgeons 20 years ago. Specialists replace damaged phalanges and bone fragments with implants made using innovative technologies. Their main advantage is that they all take root and there are no rejections. The sutures are removed a few days after the operation, and the patient gets back on his feet within a week. Surgeries under general anesthesia are contraindicated for people suffering from heart disease.
Positive results and treatment methods depend on the stage of development of the disease. If a person consults a doctor as soon as he feels the first symptoms, then surgical intervention will not be required.
There are a lot of folk recipes for getting rid of growths on the feet and big toes:
The main thing is to understand that traditional medicine helps only in the initial stages of the disease, and then only with the use of medications.
Preventive measures will help to avoid the formation of growths, fungi and other foot diseases.
First of all, you need to get rid of excess weight and bad habits. You also need to change your diet. Shoes must match your foot size.
In order to prevent fungus, shoes should be worn from natural materials. The best option is leather.
Therapeutic gymnastics should be done every day. This procedure also includes a foot massage.
Every person understands that it is better to prevent a disease than to get rid of it later. It is much cheaper and more reliable.
Painful and inflamed bumps on the toes occur for a variety of reasons. Most often, the underlying factor in their appearance is considered to be valgus deformation of the feet against the background of congenital or acquired flat feet (photo), as well as violations of the biomechanics of the legs: improperly selected shoes, frequent walking in high heels. Disorders of the musculoskeletal system, in which the foot is placed incorrectly when walking, are also among the causes of the appearance of lumps and bunions on the outside of the big toe.
The pain and discomfort that accompanies lumps near the toes makes it difficult to choose shoes, and when the pain syndrome is severe, it significantly reduces the quality of life. Treatment of mild metatarsophalangeal joint pathology is usually symptomatic, aimed at stopping the inflammatory process. Creams and ointments (photo) based on shark oil and other natural ingredients have proven to be effective preparations for combating bumps on the toes.
Cream for bunions on big toes Shark oil and Laurel is a popular topical preparation that can quickly relieve inflammation and pain, as well as reduce swelling of the protruding metatarsophalangeal joint. Created on the basis of natural ingredients, Shark Oil and Laurel Laurel cream (photo) does not cause allergic reactions. This enhanced cream for bunions on big toes is selected in such a way as to have a comprehensive therapeutic effect on the affected joint:
Shark oil (squalamine) is the basic component of a cream for treating bunions on the big toes. Derived from shark liver, squalamine is a natural antibiotic that can quickly penetrate through the skin to bone and connective tissue, relieving inflammation and pain. The substance counteracts the accumulation of salts, being harmless to humans.
In combined action, these substances produce a pronounced and lasting healing effect even with severe inflammation and pain.
Instructions for using the cream are simple:
The drug is applied to clean and dry skin. A small amount of cream is applied to the affected joint and rubbed in with massaging circular movements. The cream is applied 2-3 times a day, preferably in the morning after waking up and in the evening before bed.
The cream for bunions on big toes, Shishka Stop, has a similar component composition: it also contains shark oil and laurel. They are complemented by other active substances that enhance the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect:
The use of Shishka Stop cream is also simple: it should be applied to washed and dry skin of the feet with light massaging movements. With regular use, you can achieve a significant reduction in the pain of your big toes, as well as prevent the progression of deformation against the background of degenerative processes (photos of the results of regular use of the cream can be seen here).
Conversation with a doctor.
A woman is bothered by the bones on her feet, near her big toes. They grow and hurt. A woman asks specialists how to get rid of bunions on her feet.
Answered by general practitioner Gurevich V.G.
The pathology in which lumps form on the big toes is called hallux valgus or transverse flatfoot.
The reasons for the appearance of “bones” are:
The following exercises will help you get rid of bunions and especially prevent them from appearing:
(recipe from Healthy Lifestyle 2013, No. 17 p. 10)
If the cause of foot deformity is salt deposition, then lingonberry leaf infusion is good at removing excess salts from the body.
1 tbsp. l. dry leaf, pour 200 ml of boiling water, leave in a thermos for 8 hours. Drink 100 g 2 times a day, in the morning 30 minutes before breakfast and in the evening before bed. The course of treatment with this remedy is 2 months.
This folk remedy helps the first time - the bone does not shrink, but the pain goes away instantly.
The woman turned to readers of the newspaper “Vestnik ZOZH” with a request to help get rid of a bone on her foot near her big toe. Readers sent in many folk recipes, but this one turned out to be the most effective at home.
Crush 2 analgin tablets, add a small ampoule of 3% iodine (if you add 5% iodine, you can slightly burn the skin). Place the resulting pulp on a cotton pad, apply the cotton wool to the sore spot, wrap it with something warm, and then wrap it with film on top. Do such compresses once a week, 4-5 times in total. The woman who sent this recipe could not walk from pain before treatment, but now she has had no pain at all for two years. (2000 No. 4, p. 12, 2010, No. 19, 30, 2011 No. 9, p. 32)
If a bone grows, you need to put a piece of fresh river fish on it overnight. Under no circumstances should you freeze the fish, just keep it in the refrigerator. The course of treatment is 7 nights in a row. Then, for the next 7 days, rub fir oil into the growth. After 3 months, repeat the course of treatment. After this treatment at home, the bones stop growing, gradually soften, and the pain disappears. (2000 No. 6, p. 19)
A woman was quickly helped to get rid of pain by this folk remedy: pour warm water into a basin, add 3 tsp. soda and 7-8 drops of iodine. Take a bath for 20 minutes, then dry your feet and lubricate the bumps on your feet with 5% iodine. Wrap your feet in paper, put on woolen socks, and go to bed. The growths have not decreased, but the pain has disappeared; he has been doing such procedures for a month now. (2000 No. 11, p. 13)
30 years ago, a reader had pain in the bones of her big toes to such an extent that she could hardly walk. The doctor at the sanatorium advised her of a recipe: mix honey and “Extra” salt in equal proportions, grind until white. Apply the prepared mixture onto pieces of plastic film and apply. Bandage it, put on socks. The woman repeated this procedure every evening at night for a month. And the bumps disappeared. (2007 No. 3, p. 33).
A woman develops bumps, they are always inflamed, hot, and red. Sometimes the pain intensifies to the point of lameness. The Healthy Lifestyle reader doesn’t know for sure whether she has joint displacement or gout. She used a grinding solution: 10 crushed analgin tablets, 10 ml of iodine, whisked thoroughly in a closed bottle, but the sediment still remained. The rubbing was a good pain reliever, but the redness remained, in addition, the skin in the lubricated area dried out and then peeled off.
And the tincture of the golden mustache relieved both the pain and redness, and the gait became easy. A few days later the pain returned again. This means you have to rub it in for a very long time. The woman had hope of getting rid of the problem forever. (HLS 2007, No. 15 p.9)
The reader took a large sheet of golden mustache and made notches on it until the juice appeared. She placed the leaf on the bump near the big toe, wrapped it in plastic, bandaged it and put a sock on top. As soon as the sheet dried out, I took a new one. And so day and night. I didn’t wash my feet, but just wiped them with a damp towel. And on the eighth day a miracle happened - after such a simple treatment at home, the bumps disappeared. (HLS 2012, No. 23 p. 32)
