A bunionette , or tailor's bunion, is one that develops at the base of the little toe. When the long bone that connects to the toe (metatarsal ) bends away from the foot, the little toe bends inward and the joint swells or enlarges. Other factors that can lead to a bunion include: Loose ligaments in the foot.
This pressure is usually due to footwear, but can have other causes. The name Tailor's bunion, also used to refer to a bunionette, comes from the fact that tailors used to have this condition because of the posture they held their foot while working. Bunionettes are most commonly due to extrinsic pressure caused by footwear.
