: Hi there !
: My 12 year old son has growths on the outside of each foot. It appears to have all the signs of a bunion but is on the wrong side of the foot according to everything I have read... I am going to take him to the doctors of course... I would just like to be informed before I do this. Can anyone help me by chance ?? I would really appreciate it...

: Thanks !!

I believe that it would be called a bunionette (tailor bunion) if that if what he has. I'm not quite sure what the treatment would be but I think it's like that of a bunion and surgery is also available.
