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

August 9, 2024 updated by: Asmaa Mohamed Kamel Hassan Alminisi, Cairo University

Effect of Selective Strengthening of Peroneus Longus Muscles 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

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hallux valgus angle HVA
Time Frame: Baseline , 6 weeks (after study completion )
Hallux valgus angle will be measures musing kinovea software
Baseline , 6 weeks (after study completion )
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
Baseline , 6 weeks after study completion
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).
Baseline , 6 weeks after study completion
