Abstract

An increasing number of patient’s are visiting physician offices for arthritic pain of the first metatarsal-phalangeal joint (MPJ). Gould et al. reported that 1 in 40 individuals over the age of 50 develop hallux rigidus1. Rubio-Lorenzo and Prieto-Montana found that hallux rigidus occurs with a greater frequency in females. They also reported that taller patients are more prone to develop hallux rigidus.
