foot eversion

Introduction

Introduction to foot valgus Foot valgus, also called valgus and extension, refers to the axial deviation of the child's heel, which is one of the common deformities of the foot. Foot valgus is a deformity caused by abnormal development of the tendon of the foot, accompanied by flat foot and scaphoid collapse, and the midpoint of the calf, the center of the Achilles tendon, and the center of the calcaneus are connected. In addition, foot eversion can also cause ankle valgus deformation. Some people think that it is caused by tension of the tibialis anterior muscle, and it can return to the neutral position 90° when passively correcting the ankle joint. basic knowledge The proportion of sickness: 0.6% Susceptible people: good for children Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: myelofibrosis bone tuberculosis

Cause

Cause of foot valgus

Cause:

Passive correction of the ankle can return to a neutral position of 90 °. Others believe that due to the pressure of the fetus in the uterus, the foot is everted, not caused by the tension of the anterior tibialis. It is often characterized by excessive heel tilt, usually with flat feet and X-legs, usually with flat feet.

Prevention

Foot valgus prevention

When the baby is sitting in the stroller, his legs are kept in a position where the knees are turned outwards because the bones are not fully developed. Many children have foot valgus and knee valgus. Of course, whether it is tied or pinched the baby will not be comfortable, this time can not be soft. The sooner the treatment is better, the better. If you choose to use the belt, it is best to touch the baby powder beforehand to avoid the long lice. It is best not to tie your child when not sleeping. Persevere in believing that your baby will get better soon.

Complication

Foot valgus complications Complications, bone marrow fibrosis, bone tuberculosis

Often complicated by fractures or other injuries.

Symptom

Foot valgus symptoms Common symptoms Muscle beating foot heel long bones lower extremity neuropathic pain

Mostly manifested as heel tilt too much, usually with flat feet, X-legs, usually with flat feet, the cause is also divided into congenital hereditary and acquired muscle weakness, ligament relaxation, obesity and so on. Increase the medial arch pressure, which worsens the problem of flat feet and affects gait.

Examine

Foot eversion check

1. The anterior part of the foot is inversion, the talus is flexed, the calcaneus is inversion, the Achilles tendon, and the fascia is contracted. The forefoot is widened, the heel is narrowed, and the arch is high. The lateral malleolus protrudes from the front, and the internal hemorrhoids are behind and not obvious.

2. When standing and walking, the outer edge of the ankle is loaded with weight. In severe cases, the outer edge of the foot is loaded with weight, and the weight-bearing area produces bursitis and sputum.

3, unilateral malformation, walking limp, bilateral deformity, walking swing.

4. X-ray film: The angle between the talus and the longitudinal axis of the first metatarsal bone is greater than 15°, and the angle between the talon and the longitudinal axis of the talus is less than 30°.

Diagnosis

Foot valgus diagnosis

Foot varus: During development, due to the failure of the tendon and ligaments (posterior and deep) of the foot, it is not synchronized with the development of other tendon ligaments in the foot. The consequence is that these tendons and ligaments will be sufficient. The posterior medial side is pulled down, causing the foot to twist inwardly and inward. The bones of the foot are therefore in an abnormal position. The foot is varused, stiff, and cannot return to its normal position.

Eversion foot: Contrary to the shape of the inverted foot, it can only land on the inside of the foot and load, and the medial arch often sinks.
