16
Q

What happens in abductors twist

A

Heel moves medially and forefoot ABDucts

- midtarsal it unlocks and STJ fails to resupinate so its flexible

Q

Abductory twist is compensation for

A

Reduced ER higher up

18
Q

What is HAV

A

Hallux abductovalgus aka a bunion on the outside of your big toe

19
Q

During supination, midtarsal joints approach

A

Perpendicular

20
Q

Toe deformities seen with supination

A

Claw toe
Mallet toe
Hammer toe

21
Q

Forefoot valgus heel strike

A

Normal calcaneus but increased supination

22
Q

Forefoot valgus at heel strike

A

Begins pronating when it should be supinating

- lever arm less stable at push off

23
Q

Shearing for forefoot valgus

A

1st and 5th met heads

24
Q

What is there b.c of rigid foot with supination

A

Decreased shock absorption

25
Q

Associated pathos with forefoot valgus

A

Lateral ankle sprains
Peroneus longus tendonitis
Sesamoiditis
SI joint probs

26
Q

PF 1st ray is

A

Dropped 1st met - increased loading on 1st met

27
Q

Metatarsalgia

A

Pain at distal end of one or more metatarsals

28
Q

Metatarsalgia happens from ?

A

Overuse injury common in athletes who run and jump

29
Q

Signs and Sx of metatarsalgia

A

Gradual onset
Increased pain with walk/run
Calluses present

30
Q

Predisposing factors Of metatarsalgia

A
Prominent met heads
Tight toe ext
Weak toe flex
Tight Achilles’ tendon
Excessive pronation
Cavus foot (high arch)
Morton toe (long second toe)
31
Q

Treatment for metatarsalgia

A

Metatarsal pads

32
Q

Important points of doing a slipper cast

A

Maintain subtalar neutral and neutral DF

Hold pts foot at 4th and 5th met heads which locks and loads DTJ

33
Q

Goal of biomechanical foot orthoses

A

To compensate for foot deformity

34
Q

Which shape is best for met pads?

A

Met dome shape b/c it reduced peak plantar pressures during running in ppl with flat feet

35
Q

Optimal placement of met pad

A

6-10 mm proximal to met heads (middle 3)

36
Q

Thomas heel promotes and limits?

A

Promotes RF varus and supports medial arch

Limits pronation

37
Q

Support under cuboid does what

A

Promotes ABDuction of foot

38
Q

Metatarsal bar does what?

A

Decreases pressure on met heads

39
Q

Rocker sole

A

Decreases pressure on met heads and used for decreased ankle lotion
- also helps assist in gait with propulsion

40
Q

Running shoes need minimal

A

Heel to toe drop

6 mm or less to allow normal loading
