Question

Haha okay. I know I dont have pretty feet so you dont have to mention it:)

Im 14 and the doctor said I will probably need surgery before im 21 unless it hurts me.

Well it really hurts!

Mainly the right foot.

Do you think I will need surgery?

They also cause problems with finding shoes and stuff.

Answer 1

That's what orthopedic footwear was designed for.  You need to be wearing the proper shoes, at least 90% of the time.  Normal shoes just won't work for you.

Tight fitting shoes is the number one cause of bunions.  Here's some more information for you:

By the way, my toes are funny looking, too.  My pinky toe is completely sideways... the nails face outward!  It's hilarious.  My toes are all bent funny from the zillions of times I have stubbed and broken them.  

Answer 2

If that's what your Dr. said, then get surgery.  I used to have bunions, they started growing when I was 11, I finally got them removed when I was 18.  My Dr. said that if I did didn't get the surgery I would end up having knee and back problems. The bunions itself didn't hurt, recovery from surgery hurt a little but it's worth it !! you'll have prettier feet.
