Hi all

Not sure if there has been a question like this in the past, but I am interested in why the great toe joint seems to cause so many problems, particularly in later life, i.e. hallux limitus, rigidus, HAV etc etc. From an historical perspective, when our life spans were only 30 years or so I guess we would never had seen such conditions, but does the fact that now we are living much longer mean that the MTPJ isn't up for the job? Is this an evolutionary issue? Just curious to hear anyone elses thoughts on this.
cheers
SC.
