| description | Objective:The purpose of the present study was to investigate plantar pressure distribution during static standing in asymptomatic individuals with mild hallux valgus and to compare the results with healthy controls group.Methods:This study included a total of 25 asymptomatic individuals with hallux valgus (22 females, 3 males) between the ages of 19 and 51 years. The controls group comprised of 28 health individuals without hallux valgus (25 females, 3 males) between the ages of 20-51 years. Static plantar pressure distribution and force measurement during static standing in individuals were assessed using Tecscan MatScan System (Tekscan, Inc., South Boston, Massachusetts, USA).Results:It was found that both groups have similar maximum pressure (p=0.669), mean pressure (p=0.950), heel maximum force (p=0.660), midfoot maximum force (p=0.894), metatarsal maximum force (p=0.824), contact area (p=0.695), force-time integral (0.498), pressure-time integral (p=0.769) and center of force (p=0.178).Conclusion:The results of the present study show that asymptomatic individuals with or without mild hallux valgus have similar plantar pressure distribution. These results suggest that plantar pressure distribution do not affect the development of hallux valgus or changes of hallux position do not change plantar pressure distribution in asymptomatic individuals with mild hallux valgus. |
