HALLUX VALGUS

Hallux valgus is a deformity of the forefoot, at the base of the big toe, in which the hallux is deviated from the other toes. It creates a medial prominence known as “bunion”, which can be the site of bursitis caused by rubbing or ulcerations.

Symptoms: The main symptom is pain, felt even at rest. Then swelling and redness occur.
