[edit | edit source]

add text here relating to clinically relevant anatomy of the condition

Clinical anatomy: The” Big toe”, Great toe or the first metophalangeal joint is where this condition called Hallux rigidus occurs. The base of the the first MTP specifically is where the degenerative arthritis is typically found. The joint is covered with articular cartilage, a shiny covering to protect the bone ends As this covering wears degeneration occurs until bone is against bone. Bone spurs develop as part of this degeneration process and movement is decreased. Normal range of motion is speculated between 65 to 100 degrees.
