Hello,
It looks like you definitely have a tailors bunion developing . As your
foot grows in length it will grow in width so you should wear try wearing
shoes that are double wide and also 0.5-1 full size larger than normal to
allow for extra room. If it's still painful I'd recommend seeing a surgical
podiatrist for a consultation.
Good luck,
Dr Gelbmann
