Apply Plaster to Wall. Stir the Venetian plaster (Image 1). Drop a dollop of plaster on one spatula (Image 2). Using the second spatula, scrape off some plaster and spread it in a quick, circular motion on the wall (Image 3). Continue this process across the entire area. Some of the bare wall will show through the plaster, but this will be covered later.
The joints between the metatarsals and the first phalanx is called the metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP). These joints form the ball of the foot, and movement in these joints is very important for a normal walking pattern. Not much motion occurs at the joints between the bones of the toes. The big toe, or hallux, is the most important toe for walking, and the first MTP joint is a common area for problems in the foot.
The tarsometatarsal (Lisfranc's) joint is the most common site for arthropathy, with initial involvement usually occurring on the medial column of the foot. The distribution of neuropathic arthropathy is 70 percent at the midfoot and 15 percent at the forefoot or rearfoot; it is usually contained in one area.
