Can you give me more info on an operation for hallux rigidus?

Hallux rigidus: Hallux rigidus is the final stage of degeneration in your great toe joint. At this point. Depending on your x-rays you have two options. You can have the joint replaced or have the joint fused. I recommended you obtain weight bearing x-rays and have a foot surgeon take a look at the xrays to give you a better idea of which procedure works for you.
