Bunion - Hallux Valgus

It is necessary to differentiate:

Cor (Clavus) - small, hard, painful tumor located above the joints of the phalanges of the foot.

Durillon (Callosity) - thickening of the skin of the hand or sole of the foot

Hallux (Hallux valgus) - deviation of the big toe outwards, often with subluxation of the metatarsophalangeal joint. Characterized by a hard, protruding lump which interferes with wearing shoes.

Bunion (Bunion) - bursa covered with thickened dermis and epidermis at the joints of the foot and especially the metatarsophalangeal joint of the big toe.
