What are the early symptoms of hallux valgus and what are the causes of hallux valgus

The foot bone, also known as hallux valgus, is a foot disease in which the joint of the hallux and first metatarsal bone is tilted more than 15 degrees. The detection of the big foot bone can be judged by the symptoms of the big foot bone:

1. Foot hallux valgus and rotational deformity. The second toe is squeezed out towards the back, forming a hammer-shaped toe. Widening of the forefoot.

2. Valgus deformity of the hallux in the plane of the metatarsophalangeal segment (normal 10 15°), sometimes lateral subluxation of the base of the proximal phalangeal phalangeal bone; The medial capsule of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint is lax, and the lateral contracture is contracture.

3. The medial aspect of the first metatarsal head is raised, osteophytes are formed, and bunions are formed. The first metatarsal is anterior, and the flexor pollicis is long and the extensor muscles are arch-like and tense, aggravating the deformity.

Fourth, the first metatarsal varus deformity. Normally, the hallux valgus angle, which refers to the deviation of the hallux in the plane of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, is lateral to a maximum angle of 10° to 15°

Sun Yehui, director of the hallux valgus department of Beijing Huatan Hospital, introduced: The cause of hallux valgus is not clear, and it is generally believed to be related to a variety of factors. The two main points:

On the one hand, there are genetic factors, many patients have a family history, often before the age of 20 hallux valgus; On the other hand, there is the reason for wearing shoes, wearing pointed-toe shoes or high heels is the external cause of hallux valgus. In addition to the above factors, structural abnormalities of the foot (such as flat feet, hallux pronation, muscle tone imbalance, etc.), rheumatic diseases, neuromuscular lesions, trauma, etc. can also lead to hallux valgus. The cause of the basic hallux valgus is not well understood, but it is mainly thought to be related to abnormal foot anatomy and plantar fascia and muscle tone imbalance.

Genetic factorsGenetics is an important factor in the development of hallux valgus, especially in adolescents. Poor shoe habits include wearing high heels, pointed-toe shoes, etc., where the front of the foot is squeezed into a narrow triangular area, and the stiff upper can force the hallux to valgus. In particular, walking and exercising for a long time while wearing inappropriate shoes or pointed and thin heels can easily lead to the disease.

Congenital structural abnormalities of the foot due to congenital factors such as flat feet, hallux pronation, and muscle tone imbalance can lead to hallux valgus. Among them, flat foot deformity can cause fascial and muscle tone imbalance, resulting in the instability of the first metatarsophalangeal joint, and eventually hallux valgus. With the increase of age, the stability of the plantar muscles and fascia decreases, which is easy to induce hallux valgus.

Other factors: Various inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis cause bone destruction in the feet, which can easily lead to hallux valgus. First metatarsal varus, in which the first metatarsal bone turns inward at the metatarsal wedge joint, may also be a cause of hallux valgus. In addition, trauma to the joints can also lead to hallux valgus.

Hallux valgus is mainly caused by genetics and improper shoe wear, and flat arch collapse can also cause valgus, so you should usually pay attention to wearing more loose shoes.

Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that there are two main reasons for this, the first is caused by genetic reasons, that is, the family has this condition, and the number of people who have this condition is relatively large, and the second reason is that it is caused by bad living habits, mainly because of comfortable shoes or incorrect walking posture.

In clinical practice, many friends come to see because of toe pain, in fact, hallux valgus refers to the deformation of the first big toe of the foot that is flipped outward, and there are two common causes of hallux valgus:

First, because of congenital genetic factors caused by hallux valgus deformation, you can ask the elderly at home may have a phenomenon similar to hallux valgus, because of this problem, the elderly at home have to wear large-size shoes or wear shoes with a wide toe toe, and the patient will slowly appear aggravated in the growth and development of the aberration.

Second, women who have poor toe posture for a long time and often wear high heels will have an increased chance of toe deformation because their toes are fixed in a restrictive environment for a long time.

In addition, there are other rare causes, such as joint development or fusion distortion caused by fracture and infection, and may also cause hallux valgus.

Hallux valgus refers to the deformation of the first big toe of the foot, which is flipped outward, and the causes of hallux valgus are common in two categories:

First, due to congenital genetic factors, the hallux valgus deformation.

Second, acquired reasons.

Hello, mainly for the following reasons.

1.The occurrence of hereditary hallux valgus malformation is related to congenital factors, and genetic factors are present in about half of cases.

2.Wearing high-heeled pointed-toe shoes is one of the main factors in the formation of hallux valgus.

3.Various inflammations, especially rheumatoid, often result in outward subluxation due to joint destruction, resulting in hallux valgus deformity.

1. The incidence of hallux valgus is mainly related to genetics, and if parents suffer from hallux valgus, the probability of children suffering from hallux valgus will increase significantly. In addition, female foot ligaments are weaker than male ones, and the prevalence is higher in women under the same genetic conditions.

2. Congenital underdevelopment or deformity of joints, foot muscles and nerves can increase the incidence of hallux valgus. For example, flat feet, the reduction and imbalance of plantar tendon strength, etc., can reduce the plantar function, and then make the plantar force uneven and cause the deformation of the foot.

3. Other reasons. Shandong Hand and Foot Surgery Hospital specializes in hallux valgus.

Hello. 1. Heredity, more common in elderly women; 2. Often wear high-heeled and pointed-toe shoes, which makes the hallux turn out excessively, which is more common in young women. 3. Patients with flat feet are more likely to form hallux valgus.

If there is a slight hallux valgus, it can be corrected. 4. The popular high heels and witch shoes are the biggest culprits in accelerating thumb valgus.

There are many reasons that can cause this situation, among them, the main reason for this situation is the acquired reason, what is the acquired reason?

Acquired reasons, such as wearing some ill-fitting shoes for a long time, these shoes are generally pointed-toe shoes, and the feet have some squeezing, which will cause this situation after a long time, and some people have genetic reasons.

The pressure on people's feet is relatively large, not only to support the whole body, but also to walk every day, so we must pay attention to the health of our feet and not let our feet have problems. Hallux valgus is also a relatively common foot disorder that may be due to genetic factors. In addition to genetic factors, some acquired reasons can also lead to hallux valgus, and now let's analyze the causes of hallux valgus in detail.

In fact, many diseases are caused by congenital genetic factors, such as hallux valgus, if the patient does not absorb enough calcium in the process of growth, it will cause the bones of the feet to develop poorly, resulting in hallux valgus. Therefore, in the process of growth and development, we must supplement enough calcium, so that the bones can grow stronger and the feet grow healthier. If you suffer from hallux valgus, your feet will be very painful when you walk, and you will not be able to stand for long periods of time, let alone walk too much.

This has a very big impact on our lives, so when we find out that hallux valgus is out of it, we should go to the hospital in time to carry out the corresponding **, so that the situation of hallux valgus can be corrected and the situation of hallux valgus can be alleviated.

If the patient often likes to wear shoes that do not fit, such as shoes that show small feet, the bones of the feet will be squeezed, and then the bones of the thumb will be mutated, resulting in hallux valgus. Therefore, we must have good living habits, and we cannot wear some particularly tight shoes in order to show that our feet are relatively small. If you often wear high heels, the pressure on your thumb will also be greater, and the friction between the shoe and your thumb will be aggravated, resulting in redness and swelling, which will cause the thumb to turn out for a long time.

So we must wear loose and comfortable shoes.

There are many reasons for this, but the most common is genetic. Because there may be a statistic, 70% of them have genetic factors in it, of course, this inheritance is not definitely inherited. It's just hereditary this predisposition, and of course we go to see that he is indeed genetic.

So we generally look at whether he has hallux valgus before the age of 18, if he has it before the age of 18, it must be hereditary, if he doesn't start to get sick until he is 45 years old, it should not be hereditary.

It may be caused by frequent wearing of high heels, or by genetic factors, or by physiological factors, or by trauma, or by changes in the structure of the foot, by excessive exercise, or by inflammation.

I think there are genetic factors, human factors, dietary factors, behavioral factors, and work and rest factors.

Hallux valgus is a bone problem in the foot, and for the problem of bone deformation, it is necessary to distinguish the cause of the problem.

First, internal causes, heredity, and development.

Second, external factors, too frequent foot exertion, muscle and ligament strain, heavy physical workers, and people who wear high heels and pointed-toe shoes for a long time.
