Is it worth getting a second opinion....?I'm 13 but when i was 12 i had a lot of pain in my foot and had what looked very much like a bunion (protruding bone, lots of pain, swelling and redness) i got bloods done to check for arthritis and gout but they came back clear, i also had an x ray and the doctor said it showed no sign of me having a bunion so he said i just have a deformed foot. I've been reading information about bunions that says x rays are only used to rule out other things so does this mean i could actually have a bunion? Is it worth getting a second opinion because i'm still in lots of pain?
Thanks x

yes, go get a second opinion if you are still in pain.

A second opinion is always a good idea.
If you have a good Dr., they welcome second opinions and actually could learn something. No Dr. knows everything, even in their specialty.
Especially as you are still in pain, there is someone out there who might be able to help you. Keep searching until you find an answer. sometimes it takes a while to find the right Dr. for you.
Listen to your body. You are the one who knows there is something wrong.
Good Luck
