A pair of delicate feet can make beauty-conscious women proud. Unfortunately, many women are troubled by foot pain, the most common of which is hallux valgus. The incidence of hallux valgus in women is much higher than that of men, which is related to women wearing pointed high heels.
Hallux valgus is mostly reversible early valgus, but as the age increases, the plantar muscles, tendons, and aging, combined with female muscle, tendon congenital development is weak, and most of them lack physical labor and physical exercise, so that The strength of the bottom muscles and tendons weakened. At this time, the muscles and tendon power that pulls the thumb toe outwards are relatively strengthened, resulting in the already existing deformity of hallux valgus deformity. This is the reason why hallux valgus is more common in middle-aged and older women.
Clinically, patients often do not complain of hallux valgus deformity, but rather major hallux pain, corns, and footpads. These are common complications of hallux valgus. Bunion bursitis (big leg crutches pain, swelling) is due to the increase of hallux valgus, resulting in inversion of the patella, so that the forefoot widened, plus the squeeze of the shoes, stimulate the local bone hyperplasia, joint capsule thickening Corns and palates (foot pads) are due to the buckling of the hallux valgus caused by the second and the fifth toe deformity, the occurrence of deformed joints caused by friction shoes. In addition, hallux valgus can also produce Other complications such as widening of the forefoot and collapse of the transverse arch, which weakens the ability of the foot cushion to oscillate, thereby reducing exercise capacity and affecting the quality of life.
Older patients with hallux valgus should reduce walking or standing time, wear shoes should be relaxed and comfortable. Daily use of warm water to soak feet, external use camphor saponin, safflower oil and other swelling, pain relief; hand to move the hallux to the inside; barefoot walking, when conditions are more to walk on the beach, is conducive to exercise plantar muscles, tendons Strength; Application of some prosthetic orthopaedic appliances (such as hallux valgus orthosis), these methods can effectively delay the exacerbation of the disease.
Hallux valgus surgery itself is less traumatic, and severe pain can be considered for surgery, but it should be done with physical conditions. According to the patient's overall situation, the orthopaedic surgeon will carefully study the degree of deformity of the foot, measure multiple angles on the X-ray film, make detailed analysis and assessment, and select the surgical method suitable for each patient. In addition, hallux valgus surgery is small and skillful. If the operation is not precise, it will affect the therapeutic effect. Therefore, it is necessary to select experienced specialists.
