try etiological treatment. hallux valgus develops due to the weightbearing
line falling medial to the long axis of the big toe, thus pushing it into
valgus alignment and resulting in medial gapping of the MTP joint, resulting
in bony growth into the gap, called bunion. usually, it's a result of
collapsed longitudinal arch. good, and i mean - good medial molded arch
support results in better weight progression through the foot, ans slowly
but steadily bunion starts going away. of course, unless she has hardware in
the joint etc, so there's no return back.

Just make one yourself. Use a larger one to get a pattern. I used low
temperature plastic so you can customize it event more.

Elise, the small size ( A3001LSM for left) will work but you may have to
modify the length of the toe and the strap. Terry Supan
