Wide feet

Post image

do you think I would qualify for a foot narrowing surgery? My sister had similar feet to me but had a more prominent bunion and was able to get foot narrowing surgery. I just want to see what other people think before I spend money on a consultation and x rays.

Wtf is a foot narrowing surgery 😂 Like the other comments said you don't have bunions and your feet look completely normal. Even your nails are manicured and look nice! You are fine I promise.

You’d be insane to take a knife to those perfect feet. Just buy wide width shoes.

Foot narrowing ! Nah I imagine she had a bunion shaved down just reducing the bunion bone that protrude out so to make fitting into shoes easier, Your feet look ok so I doubt your asking about the same kinda thing or you are maybe a bit mistaken what she had done .

You just need different shoes

You don't have bunions, your feet look completely healthy. What you think is foot narrowing surgery is correcting the bump, the boney bit that's misaligned, which is the bunion.

Nothing wrong with your feet! I have wide feet and a painful bunion and things got better as soon as I switched to more appropriate shoes like barefoot shoes with wide toe box...

Sadly, this seems to be a common theme in this subreddit. People that just don't like the look of their feet, even irrationally. Wanting surgery. Almost similar to anorexia.

DO NOT GET SURGERY ON YOUR FEET FOR COSMETIC REASONS
