Effect of Selective Strengthening of Peroneus Longus on Pain , Joint Alignment and Foot Function in Hallux Valgus

Purpose of this study is to measure Change in Hallux valgus angle (HVA )as measured by kinovea software Change in pain as measured by numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) Change in function as measured by Foot function index (FFI )Egyptian version With the peroneus longus strengthening exercise versus the use of conventional physical therapy programme in cases of hallux valgus patients

Treatment and study plan

Selective Peroneus longus excercise

Other

Weight bearing peroneus longus exercise

Other names: Band heel raises

Conventional physical therapy programme

Other
  • Passive abduction of the Hallux with traction
  • short foot exercise
  • toe spread outs

Primary outcomes

  1. Hallux valgus angle HVA

    Time frame: Baseline , 6 weeks (after study completion )

    Hallux valgus angle will be measures musing kinovea software

  2. Level of pain

    Time frame: Baseline , 6 weeks after study completion

    Will be measured using numerical pain rating scale Where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents worst pain imaginable

  3. Foot function

    Time frame: Baseline , 6 weeks after study completion

    Will be measured using Foot Function Index FFI Egyptian version Which is divided into 3 sub categories Pain 0 no pain , 10 worst pain Disability 0 least 10 worst Activity limitation 0 no limitation , 10 worst limitation For the total score, the minimum score is 0% (no pain or difficulty), and maximum score is 100% (worst pain and extreme difficulty requiring assistance).
