Most people hear "bunion" and picture the big toe. The question here is whether the word stretches to the little toe, and the answer depends on which name is printed on the paperwork.
The answer, and the other name for it
Yes, but the condition goes by a different name. Cleveland Clinic calls it a tailor's bunion and places it at the base of your pinkie toe, where that toe meets your foot, describing it as a bony bump.
Cleveland Clinic's bunion page uses a second label, listing tailor's bunions (bunionettes) as forming at the base of your little toe. So "bunionette" and "tailor's bunion" point to the same place.
Why the name matters
A visit summary, a referral or an insurance form may say "tailor's bunion" or "bunionette" and never use the word "bunion" alone. If you are searching your records for the word you know, you may miss it.
The medical vocabulary for the big-toe version is "hallux valgus." For a clinical look at that term and its relatives, see the UK National Hallux Valgus Think Tank report and the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital patient guide to bunions and lesser toe deformities.
What to confirm, and with whom
Ask the foot clinician you see around Itasca which term they are using for the bump, and have them write it on your chart. Then ask whether the plan they describe covers that toe specifically.
The clause people skip
A plan written for a big-toe bunion does not automatically describe the little toe. Check that the toe named in the plan matches the toe that hurts.
