Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hallux valgus angle HVABaseline , 6 weeks (after study completion )

Hallux valgus angle will be measures musing kinovea software

Level of painBaseline , 6 weeks after study completion

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

Foot functionBaseline , 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).
