In recent years, the number of patients with podiatry has increased day by day. Among various podiatry, hallux abduction and valgus deformity are common, which can cause foot deformation, pain and sexual dysfunction. When the pain in the entire sole of the foot As the symptoms worsen, the patient will be unable to wear shoes, which will greatly affect daily life and walking. Experts from Chongqing Friendship Orthopedic Hospital explain what are the causes of hallux valgus?
Due to the tight stretch of the extensor pollicis longus, flexor pollicis longus and adductor pollicis muscles, the big toe pronates and everts along its long axis, and the toenail turns outward. midline, and continues to aggravate, the medial heads of the abductor pollicis and flexor pollicis brevis muscles and their internal sesamoid bones are displaced outward and lose their abduction function, and then the adductor pollicis and flexor pollicis brevis lateral heads contract. , the lateral joint capsule is contracted and thickened, the big toe is subluxed outward, the fibular sesamoid bone moves between the fibular and metatarsal heads, and the hallux valgus pushes the metatarsal bone inward, widening the transverse arch of the foot to the inside of the metatarsal head Being squeezed and rubbed by the upper of the shoe can cause bunions and pain, and the metatarsal head becomes enlarged to form an osteophyte that protrudes inward. Due to tension and strain of the adductor pollicis muscle, the transverse arch of the foot becomes flat, and the second and third metatarsal heads collapse toward the plantar side. Weight-bearing and friction cause the skin there to thicken and form calluses. The big toe turns outward, squeezing the second toe and occupying the space. In the position of the second toe, the second toe is raised and overlapped with the big toe, so that the metatarsophalangeal joint of the second toe is hyperextended and the proximal interphalangeal joint is flexed, forming a hammer toe, protruding on the dorsal side of the big toe and third toe, proximal to the interphalangeal joint. The dorsal side is rubbed and squeezed by the upper of the shoe, which can also cause callus pain.
1. The detailed causes of hallux valgus can be divided into three categories: congenital factors, acquired factors, and genetic factors.
Acquired factors Acquired factors are caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes. Usually, wearing shoes with heels that are too high, too pointed and too narrow makes it difficult for the heels to be fixed, causing squeezing, friction and pressure on the toes. It not only affects the extension and movement of the toes, causing discomfort and pain, but also destroys the functions of the original three footholds. When walking, the whole body weight falls on the front of the foot, and the toes will gradually deform due to the pressure of the body weight, which will cause the thumb to be out of shape. turning phenomenon. For example, the popular high-heeled shoes and witch shoes are the main culprits of accelerating bunions.
, Innate factors Innate factors are caused by joints, nerves, muscles, etc. For example, flat feet, genetics, and reduced and unbalanced plantar tendon strength can reduce the function of the soles of the feet, causing instability and deformation.
The prevalence of genetic factors is high in women, and when they start wearing high heels has an important impact on the prevalence of bunion valgus in women. If parents have bunions, the probability of their children suffering from bunions is significantly increased. In addition, women's foot ligaments are weaker than men's, and they are more likely to develop bunion valgus under the same genetic conditions. Adolescence is a critical period for the formation of the body's skeletal structure. At this time, children's soft tissues are relatively loose, their bones develop rapidly, their height increases, and their body structure has not yet been finalized. If you wear high heels too early, the high-heeled pointed shoes will tightly wrap the forefoot, putting the toes in a pathological state and triggering a series of hallux valgus mechanisms, leading to the eventual formation of hallux valgus.
