Postsurgical rehabilitation exercises for hallux abducto valgus repair

The authors describe postsurgical exercises designed to maximize first metatarsophalangeal joint range of motion following the surgical correction of hallux abducto valgus deformities. Concerns regarding the healing of skin, tendon, and bone are discussed, and the need to individualize the exercise program based on the surgical procedures performed is emphasized. Use of these exercises in the postoperative management of hallux abducto valgus surgical repair is encouraged.
