Longitudinal Outcomes Following a Randomized Controlled Trial of Dynamic Splint Stretching for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Area of Science:

Orthopedics
Sports Medicine
Biomechanics

Background:

Hallux limitus is a common condition in runners, characterized by limited motion in the big toe joint.
Conservative treatments aim to improve range of motion and reduce pain, but efficacy can vary.

Observation:

A runner presented with hallux limitus and significant contracture.
Dynamic splinting was implemented as a treatment intervention.

Findings:

After 4 months of dynamic splinting, the patient achieved a 45-degree increase in active range of motion.
Gait analysis revealed significant and beneficial changes, indicating improved biomechanics.

Implications:

Dynamic splinting may be a viable conservative treatment for hallux limitus in athletes.
Objective gait analysis can effectively measure treatment outcomes for foot and ankle conditions.
