In our clinic a fellow PT has twice inserted a 2 degree varus post under the hallux, distal to the 1st MP joint, in addition to a 2 degree standard varus post under the forefoot just proximal to the MP joint. This was done with Vasyli devices, for symptomatic functional flat feet. Personally I cannot think of any rationale for the post under the hallux, and it seems as though it would contribute to hallux valgus. Am I correct in my thinking? Thanks.
