Just had the operation of permanently fuse the toe joint. (Mtp1 arthrodese) I wish I had done this operation sooner. After surgery I had minimal pain and could walk within days. I know the bones will take time to heal but the fast recovery is amazing

Thank You for explaining this about the bone spur and big toe. My big toe doesn't bend at all and I will go and see a podiatrist. So glad to know what it is.!

Thanks for your story and advice !

so well explained! Thank you, your videos are helping me study better

I had a youngswick osteotomy two days ago to fix my hallix ridigus and will start pt, physiotherapy and ultrasound to loosen my tight calves. I have been dealing with so much pain in my foot I finally decided to do the surgery. So far the recovery has been great, some discomfort but way less than I expected. I cant wait to completely heal and resume my regular activities.

How are you doing now? Need information to decide between this surgery and fusion. Thanks!

Best explanation ever! I have been dealing with this for decades probably as a result from being on point at 6 years old and doing gymnastics, also broke my sesamoid bones in my right foot. I have to buy shoes that do not bend in the front as you demonstrated and have found good results with Zebas as you can put them on without bending and I've had several spinal surgeries so bending is out of the question. Thanks again, your diagrams were extremely helpful.

Awesome explanation 👍🏾

Excellent explanations. Thank you.

So far, best video I've seen on this.

Great explanation. New subscriber. I recently noticed a painful lump ,left foot,exactly where u diagnosed helix rigidly. At the top of my 1st metatarsal. Since no traumas occurred & its painful to flex my big toe & pain on the lump,it's clear what my problem is. Other issues with this foot is planter fashitis, a tri mollaolar fx,with a tear in the Achilles tendon, 35 yrs ago. A plate & 5 screws were surgically implanted on my fibula & removed 2 yrs later. After working on my flat feet for 30 yrs the medial meniscus began swelling with excruciating pain although on the mri it showed a tear in my lateral meniscus ?? 🤔 4 yrs ago an ortho dr did bilatetal knee replacements. Now both knees swell & wake me with severe pain from muscle Knotts around both knees. He was right I don't have joint pain but I'm not sure if this pain isn't worse. Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue keep me in bed to much. I eat almost nothing but organic fruits & veggies & often do intermediate fasting. Still my weight stays the same. Can u recommend a good shoe, so I can have stability when I'm able to walk. Would orthotics be good for me ? Thank you & God bless you for this well done video . PS: when an orthotics. Dr does knee replacement do they usually take out the meniscus ?

This is probably the most painful thing I've ever been through. It started 15 yrs ago and I finaly made an appointment. Orthopedics for a month them cortisone shot. I'll be glad to get this shot because this is horribley paying

I just had Hallux Rigidus Surgery with bone spurs on December 5, 2018. Although I’m in the early stages of recovery I can’t wait until I’m all healed became I can tell my surgeon did a wonderful job. I have a ways to go but I’m looking forward to being able to walk again without all that pain.

Hi. I had this exact problem and bone spur shaved off during surgery. I got almost all range of motion back but the pain is still there!!! It's the worst pain, sharp excuriating pain. I had surgery years ago and I still deal with this toe problem! I've injected steroids into the joint ( forget what the dr called it) but when the dr injected it into my toe to help soften the joint because there's no more cartilage there,...it hurt sooooo bad. Giving birth to my son was not that painful!! Can I ask you what dr you used? I need a second opinion because I need help again. Thanks Rachel

I'm having hallux pain and limited range of motion after a broken fibula Orif surgery. I didnt injure my foot or toe, ive had a secondary surgery to remove a large Syndemosis screw that was in place to let my ligaments heal. I figured my range of motion for walking would improve and so far in a week it hasnt because of this weird toe joint issue. I go back to my Ortho doc Thursday its just so frustrating. Its always one step forward one step back. I can't even google other stories of people that have had this happen to them.

What a brilliant idea to "grafitti" the skin to create a vivid demo

How do I fix the hallux rigidus when my toe direction is opposite. My big(great) right toe aims out, pulling the other toes in that direction. I feel like I am the only one who has this problem. The trainer at my gym was stumped and so was my doctor, due to the way my foot is shaped

I had surgery in Oct 🚒30 th 2013. All he did was take my joint out. Would I be able to get a joint replacement?

I just started recently feeling what I believe is Hallux rigidus. The issue that I find different than HR is my big toe wants to point upward and the top of my foot feels very sore. I can move the toe to it's neutral position but I actually have to use my muscles to pull it to where it would typically be in a resting position. As soon as I relax the muscle the toe goes back upward causing the pain.

Awesome

How much it will cost for 'hallux rigidus' surgery.? 😢

Is it supposed to be very painful relieved by popping or mobilizing the joint? Or do I have gout?

Can the toe bend down at all? My 11 year old daughter has had this since I noticed as a toddler (possibly even born with it) which I thought was just normal with babies, where it is like the bones are fused together and both big toes will not bend. Just looking for advice before I ring the doctors to hopefully book in a xray to find out!

I need help please

I was diagnosed with this last week and have bone spurs on the joint. I've not had any pain with this but I do wear orthotics for my arches.

Interestingly I have sciatica for the last 2 years but also hallux rigidus which I developed 2 months ago. Do you think hallux rigidus might be caused by nerve damage to the nerves involved with controlling the foot muscles? I have also experimented with how quickly I can wiggle the toes up and down on my right foot (good side) vs left foot (hallux rigidus side) and have observed that I can wiggle them faster with my right foot. It seems the nerves are more responsive/faster acting on the right foot. Anyone who reads this and who is in a similar situation could you please experiment with this too and report back, would really appreciate it.

Neither a shoe nor an orthotic can 'life the arch up' - that has been demonstrated with research and is thoroughly debunked. Time to keep up with research findings! I can agree that a shoe with a stiff sole can often help, more so when there is a rocker bar incorporated in the shoe. The insole shown here briefly, does not seem to be of the correct design but this is difficult to assess. The narrator does not specify the orthotic design features, except in the most vague terms. I looked at the website and again was unable to source the hallux rigidus specific orthotic design. Other forms of condition specific orthoses appear of a good design, so perhaps this is an oversight or incomplete understanding of the condition and orthosis requirements.

Slow Motion Shoes would be either an enchantment or a curse depending on which unholy creature forged then

So the solution is buy innersoles to weaken foot muscles even more, not fixing the actual root reasons that led and caused you to be over pronated which could be bad posture, weak hip and waist muscles or wearing crap cramped shoes squeezing your foot in weird angles, not allowing your feet to spread to plant naturally and to chop up up your leg and feet with surgery that would affect you for the rest of your life. Good luck with that

I went back to work at my school in the fall with a walking boot on. Then, in Nov., I took a leave of absence to get my other toes fixed before the end of the calendar year since I had met my deductible. Taking a leave of absence smack dab during the school year was very inopportune for my job. The difference of pain between the fixed toes and the ones that weren't was like night and day. Because the fixed toes didn't hurt at ALL, the painful toes were much more obvious and it was so hard to concentrate. To me, taking the time off was so important, l figured l might as well bite the bullet and get it all done. That was 10 years ago and I still don't have any pain. Except when I stub a toe...only because of the pins and screws that my podiatrist inserted. I am amazed that with all the hardware he used to fix my feet, that I don't feel any of it. My advice is to check around and go to the "best" podiatrist in your area. It's worth it. Good Luck and hope this helps you.
