"According to a study by the American College of Rheumatology, hallux valgus, better known as bunions, are more likely to affect women and older individuals. The study was published in the Arthritis Care and Research journal from Wiley-Blackwell. During the study, it was found that 36 percent of the entire study group suffered from bunions. Individuals who suffered from bunions showed worse health overall and a lower quality of life due to their bunions when compared to participants that did not suffer from bunions."
