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
Interventions
OTHERSelective Peroneus longus excercise
Weight bearing peroneus longus exercise

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hallux valgus angle HVA | Baseline , 6 weeks (after study completion ) | Hallux valgus angle will be measures musing kinovea software |
| 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 |
| 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). |
