Do you suffer from hallux valgus? Say goodbye to pain with the corrective splint!
Hallux valgus, commonly known as "bunion", is a deformity of the big toe that affects millions of people around the world. This condition can cause severe pain, discomfort in shoes and affect the aesthetics of the foot. Fortunately, there are solutions to relieve symptoms and prevent the deformity from getting worse, including wearing a suitable orthosis.
Understanding hallux valgus and its causes
Hallux valgus is characterized by a deviation of the big toe towards the outside of the foot, causing a bony prominence at the metatarsophalangeal joint. This deformation can be caused by several factors:
- Genetic factors: A hereditary predisposition can play an important role in the development of hallux valgus.
- Morphological factors: A flat foot or a valgus foot (foot drop) can also promote the appearance of hallux valgus.
- Environmental factors: Wearing shoes that are too tight or have high heels can accentuate the deformity of the big toe.
The different types of orthoses for hallux valgus
The choice of orthosis depends on several factors, such as the severity of the deformity, the symptoms experienced, the lifestyle and the specific needs of each individual. There are two main categories of orthotics:
1. Protective orthotics:
- Objective: Protect the bunion from friction and pressure in the shoe.
- Types: Gel or silicone pads, foam bunion guards, night orthotics.
- Benefits: Immediate relief from pain and inflammation, protection against irritation and injury.
- Disadvantages: Do not correct the deformity of the big toe.
2. Corrective orthotics:
- Objective: Gradually correct the deformity of the big toe and realign the joint.
- Types: Day and night splints, rigid and semi-rigid orthoses, orthoses based on toe spacers.
- Advantages: Corrective action on deformation, improvement of posture and biomechanics of the foot, prevention of worsening of hallux valgus.
- Disadvantages: More restrictive to wear, may require time to adapt.
