Summer is coming. Many girls wear shoes with bare feet, and their nails are painted with bright red nail polish. They are very beautiful. But Zhang Li, 19, bought a pair of cloth shoes on her feet, because her feet had hallux valgus, and the shape of her toes was so ugly that she was embarrassed to wear sandals. Read a lot of advertisements, all said that the operation was very simple, then it could go down to the ground without affecting the life and work. She entered our hotline to ask whether the operation was good or not. Is it as simple as advertised?

The reporter interviewed Song Donghui, director of Department of orthopedics, Tianjin Public Security Hospital, and asked him to introduce some knowledge about hallux valgus surgery.

    Hallux valgus tends to be younger in recent years.

Hallux valgus is the thumb of the foot deviates from the outside of the body, which is more common in middle-aged and elderly women, and is related to genetic factors. The incidence rate in adults is about 30%. Because of the change of lifestyle in recent years, people have been walking down. The design of shoes has also produced a lot of high-heeled shoes and pointed shoes because of the pursuit of fashion and beauty. Many girls have this problem at a very young age. Some people even buy shoes to cut a hole to wear, which is very ugly.

Actually, hallux valgus is not only a beautiful problem. Our feet bear all the weight of the human body. From the structural point of view, the 26 foot bones form dozens of joints, forming two horizontal and vertical arches. There are complex mechanical structures on the feet. As the age increases, the ligaments on the feet begin to deteriorate, the force changes in the feet, the biomechanical condition of the feet is changed, and the bursa on the feet will cause swelling and pain due to friction, and even affect the knee and hip joints due to the change of gait, and prone to flat feet, hallux valgus and corpus callosum. Therefore, the foot is a problem that is easy to appear and we do not care enough about it.

     No pain, no operation.

Many people feel pain and weakness, that is, because the thumb moves outward and rotates, ligaments are slack, bone changes in sequence, bone hyperplasia and so on. In the medial metatarsal bone, there is a redundant big bone inside the foot. This situation can not be operated at an early stage. When there are foot pain, stubborn corns, callosum and so on, surgery is often needed.

    Complex operation requires individualized design.

The operation of thumb hallux valgus is simple, simple, complex and complex. Because of the complex structure of the foot, many people will suffer from hallux valgus associated with changes in the arch of the foot or serious inversion of the metatarsus. At present, there are more than 20 kinds of operation methods commonly used. Doctors will use the tendon balance, remove the proliferative part, and inflamed synovium and toe reduction according to the patient's condition, so as to correct the toe focus, improve appearance and restore normal function.

     Surgery should be carried out in a regular hospital.

Although this operation is not large, and it can be minimally invasive, after all, it is Department of orthopedics operation. It requires very high sterile environment. Before treatment, it is necessary to treat tinea pedis, infection and so on. Postoperative care is also important. After surgery, use the toe pad to fix the position and remove stitches after 2 weeks. After the suture, special orthodontic fixation is needed to maintain functional position after surgery, and it will be fully recovered in about 2 months.

For the industry dominated by standing and walking, we should pay attention to the timing of operation, for example, teachers should choose summer surgery. Since the bone and wound need to be recovered after the operation, it is necessary to reduce the walk during the healing period, but on the day of the operation, it is necessary to leave the ground to maintain the function of the foot. The activity time should be limited to 30 minutes. It will take two months to fully recover.

As the saying goes, 100 days of injuries and bones, for many advertising campaigns to follow suit, no impact on life, and so on, may be not enough preparation work, observation and guidance after surgery is inadequate, prone to infection and recurrence.
