Hallux varus. Hallux varus is a deformity of the great toe joint where the hallux is deviated medially (towards the midline of the body) away from the first metatarsal bone. The hallux usually moves in the transverse plane.
Hallux rigidus is a disorder of the joint located at the base. of the big toe. It causes pain and stiffness in the joint, and. with time it gets increasingly harder to bend the toe. âHalluxâ. refers to the big toe, while ârigidusâ indicates that the toe. is rigid and cannot move. Hallux rigidus is actually a form of. degenerative arthritis. This disorder can be very troubling and even disabling, since. we use the big toe whenever we walk, stoop down, climb up, or even stand. Many patients. confuse hallux rigidus with a bunion, which affects the same joint, but they are very different. conditions requiring different treatment. Because hallux rigidus is a progressive condition, the toeâs motion decreases as time goes on.
