which commented their orthotic increased the intermetatarsal angle; and therefore increased the progression of the hallux valgus, as well as unilateral hallux valgus the orthoses did not halt the development in HV in the normal foot.
NB: their orthotic was a custom made using rigid thermoplastic materials and dental acrylic. They had a forefoot and rearfoot wedge as well.
What are your views on this and do you know of any other papers that contradict/concur with these findings?
