Immediate effect of taping on foot motion with bunion
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests how taping affects the way your foot moves if you have a bunion (hallux valgus). It looks at immediate changes in foot biomechanics, which may help relieve discomfort or improve walking, and is designed for people who are treating their bunion without surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.

This study looks at how a long walk affects people with bunions (hallux valgus). It helps us understand if walking changes pain or foot function, which may guide better treatment advice.
This trial studies whether using a tourniquet (a tight band to control bleeding) during bunion surgery affects recovery. If you're having both feet corrected on the same day, this study may help doctors decide the best way to do the surgery.
This study tests whether custom foot supports (orthoses) can reduce pain from bunions, which are bony bumps at the base of the big toe. If you have a painful bunion, you might find relief by wearing these supports in your shoes.
This study compares the immediate effects of two types of manual therapy (mobilization and manipulation) versus a sham (fake) procedure on foot pressure in people with hallux valgus (bunions). It may help understand if these hands-on treatments can improve how you walk.
This study tests a new type of bandage or dressing used after bunion (hallux valgus) surgery. It aims to see if this dressing works better than the usual dressing to help your foot heal.
This trial tests if using a connected app to do self-guided rehab at home helps people recover better after bunion (hallux valgus) surgery. It may offer a convenient way to follow your exercises and track progress.
