Travel Insurance for Bunions

Bunions are a very common foot condition where a bony lump forms at the base of the big toe, often causing discomfort or swelling. They affect approximately 1 in 3 adults across the UK, and for most people the symptoms are mild and can be managed with appropriate footwear, simple treatments, or slight lifestyle adjustments.

Travelling with bunions might mean a little extra planning, but there’s no reason you can’t still enjoy your holiday abroad.

Here’s why travel insurance matters when travelling with a medical condition:

• Emergency medical treatment abroad if your condition causes complications
• Hospital treatment and medical expenses during your trip
• Repatriation to the UK if you need to return home for further care
• Cancellation cover if you are unable to travel due to your condition

Travel advice for people with a musculoskeletal condition

• Plan your itinerary so you can take regular breaks
• Consider accessible transport options if mobility is limited
• Avoid activities that may worsen joint or muscle pain
• Pack any supports or aids you normally use

When completing the medical declaration, it's important to read the questions carefully, and declare this condition where required.

The type of cover available can depend on how severe the condition is and how it is managed. For that reason, it’s important to answer all medical declaration questions honestly and accurately.
