    The video was pretty funny. Was it intended to be a parody of internet medical advice? I laughed a lot at the idea that Morton's foot causes hip arthritis.

    What you need to know about Morton's foot. There is an increased forces on the 2nd metatarsal and decreased force on the first metatarsal. Therefore there is an increased probability of 2nd metatarsal stress fractures and a decreased probability of hallux limitus (opposite of what the video claimed). The point is that this is probability. It is possible to never get a 2nd metatarsal stress fracture even if you have a Morton's foot.

    Not only on the Internet. I gave a link to an article from the magazine.
    And I found a book from the video: Travell & Simons Myofascial pain and dysfunction: the trigger point manual, Book 2
