The change of load-bearing surface will cause traumatic inflammation and pain of ankle joint, and the harm of big foot bone will even affect knee joint, hip joint and even waist.

2. Bigfoot will affect the patient's walking.

With the aggravation of the big foot bone, 1

The upside down is getting worse and worse. The metatarsal bone of patients with Bigfoot is squeezed and the friction is aggravated.
