Hallux Limitus and Hallux Rigidus

Dr Ozello's Sports Medicine Report: Hallux Limitus and Hallux Rigidus **Disclaimer: Viewing this video does not take the place of seeing a medical professional. Please visit a medical professional for evaluation, diagnosis & treatment. Never perform an exercise that elicits or intensifies symptoms. If an exercise elicits or intensifies symptoms, stop immediately and use a viable substitute. The importance of proper motion and strength in the big toe is vital for proper foot function. In medical terminology, the great toe is named the hallux. The great toe contains two bones called phalanges, while the other toes have three. The bones of the great toe are called the distal and proximal phalanges. The proximal phalange articulates with the first metatarsal bone. The joint between the proximal phalange and the first metatarsal is named the 1st Metatarsophalangeal joint or 1st MTP joint. The 1st MTP is the location of Hallux Limitus and Hallux Rigidus. Hallux Limitus refers to limited motion in the great toe. Hallux Rigidus means the great toe is rigid or cannot move. Hallux Rigidus is a progression of Hallux Limitus. Hallux Limitus & Hallux Rigidus are classified as degenerative joint disease (DJD), which is also known as osteoarthritis (OA). Hallux Limitus & Hallux Rigidus are degenerative joint disease of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint. Symptoms of Hallux Limitus & Hallux Rigidus include pain & stiffness at the 1st MTP joint. Limited motion in the 1st MTP joint, especially in raising the toe upward, called dorsiflexion in medical terms. Pain is intensified during weight bearing activities. Symptoms increase during cold & damp weather. The level of pain slowly progresses & limited motion slowly worsens over time. The great toe may deviate toward the other toes. Several intrinsic sources contribute to the formation of Hallux Limitus & Hallux Rigidus. Major intrinsic precursors are a collapsed transverse (metatarsal) arch, weak plantar forefoot muscles, tight toe extensor muscles, hyperpronation & a longer than normal 1st metatarsal bone. The muscles of the feet are often the most neglected muscles in the body. Build a strong foundation with foot strengthening exercises. Strengthen the toe flexors & stretch the toe extensors. This combination strengthens the toes & the transverse arch while simultaneously improving motion.
