Pain in the Big Toe Joint
Other consequences of a long term instability of the foot may include a painful big toe joint, bone spurs on the top of the joint, and a limitation of motion at the joint. This condition is called Hallux Limitus, or Hallux Rigidus. If the foot is unstable and the metatarsal bone behind the big toe elevates excessively with every step that you take, it effects the way the joint functions. This instability causes jamming of the joint, which leads to pain, inflammation, and the eventual development of bone spurs and arthritis.
