New Website Launched To Help Tailors Bunion Sufferers

April 12, 2010 - PRLog -- A new website for tailor’s bunion and bunionette sufferers was launched last week offering important information on the causes, symptoms and cures for a tailor’s bunion, whilst explaining the facts in an easy to read format without unnecessary medical jargon.
The website http://tailorsbunion.com is one of a number of growing information sources which provides an easy to read explanation of health problems, which can help to prevent expensive trips to the doctor, and offers advice to sufferers to help correct common conditions early on, preventing the need for surgery.

One problem with health sites is that they are often written by doctors, who have a tendency to use medical jargon for preciseness, which can often be confusing to the layman. The problem with giving medical advice without a full medical qualification can leave publishers open to legal problems, and many people avoid taking the risk.

It is refreshing that such a site has been launched, and as the owner points out, the idea is not to provide a medical diagnosis, nor to stop people from visiting a doctor. It is quite the opposite. By educating people on the condition and improving knowledge, it‘s aim is to get people to take early steps to prevent the condition becoming more serious.

As with most medical conditions, ignorance, fear and general unawareness to the symptoms and facts leaves problems undiagnosed for longer, creating problems when it comes to treating conditions. With relatively minor conditions such as bunions, which are not serious medical complaints, an internet resource is an excellent way of gathering information to enable action to be taken to get relief from discomfort and pain.
In the case of the tailor’s bunion, the majority of sufferers are women, who do not see it necessary to visit a doctor in many cases.  A great deal of doctors visits for bunions can be as much as a year after the condition first develops, and a year of suffering from painful toes and feet could well have been avoided.

The site offers easy to read information from the basics, such as what a tailors bunion is, information on the symptoms of tailor’s bunions and their causes.  Information on treatment options is also included, and in most cases home remedies are not only inexpensive, but they are also highly effective. The site offers advice on simple products and suggestions on changes to lifestyle which will help to relieve pain, swelling and should ultimately see the problem cured. For those who do not have the funds available, there are treatment methods which cost nothing.

The term tailor’s bunion comes from the high prevalence of the condition amongst tailors. Hours spent sitting on the floor in a cross-legged position promotes tailors bunion formation on both feet. The pressure placed on the joint from hard floors triggers their formation.  

The site explains that surgery is best avoided, and doctors rarely recommend this as the best primary treatment in most cases. Simple home cures can be used to maximum effect. After all, going under the surgeon’s knife is always best avoided and used as a last resort.
The site aims to offer a layman’s explanation of the problem and to educate people and make all of the information easy to find and easily accessible to all. Naturally, after reading the information, if viewers feel that they may be developing the condition, they can then visit a health professional for a full diagnosis and suggested treatment program.
