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

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Hallux Valgus
• Interventions: Other: Selective Peroneus longus excercise; Other: Conventional physical therapy programme

• Registration Number: NCT06541119
• Lead Sponsor: Cairo University

Brief Summary

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

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Selective peroneus longus strengthening exercise	Selective Peroneus longus excercise	Group A will receive a weight bearing peroneus longus exercise with conventional physical therapy Programme
Conventional physical therapy programme	Conventional physical therapy programme	Group B will receive a program consisting of 3 commonly used exercises in Hallux valgus

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Hallux valgus angle HVA	Baseline , 6 weeks (after study completion )	Hallux valgus angle will be measures musing kinovea software
Foot function	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).
Level of pain	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
