Hallux valgus is a common deformity of the big toe, defined as medial deflection of the first metatarsal bone along with lateral deflection of the first toe. Surgery has been shown to be beneficial when compared to orthoses or no treatment. While generally effective, surgery entails significant post-operative pain, inflammation and edema, and several weeks of limited mobility. This will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study comparing the homeopathic drug Traumeel S with placebo in pain reduction after surgical Hallux valgus correction.
