Introduction to the four stages of big toe bones

1. Primary stage of big toe valgus: The big toe is valgus about 10 degrees, which affects the appearance, but there is no pain. There are slight calluses on the sole of the foot, which will not directly affect walking. Wearing high heels will cause pain.

2. Big toe contracture stage: the big toe is turned outward 10-20 degrees, the joints and ligaments are inflamed, the first and second toes are obviously squeezed, the sole of the foot is obviously widened, and calluses are obvious on the sole of the foot. Walking for a long time can easily cause pain in the big toe joint and sole of the foot, mainly because it will destroy the function of the original three footholds.

3. Severe stage of hallux valgus: the big toe is 20-40 degrees outward, the toes overlap, the transverse arch collapses, corns, calluses, flat feet, heel pain, and difficulty in balancing the force on both feet, which seriously affects standing and walking.

4. Big toe deformity stage: The big toe is valgus more than 40 degrees, the toe's mission is over, the big toe is severely overlapped, the toe is not under force, the arch of the foot collapses, it is difficult to walk, the sole of the foot directly bears the pressure of the toe part, there are calluses on the sole of the foot, both feet are seriously mis-loaded, and the joints are difficult to coordinate. This causes the negative force line of the human body to change when walking, causing knee joint inflammation, back pain, etc.
