title: Nerve disorders of the hallux.
abstract: Nerve disorders about the hallux can generate remarkable pain and dysfunction. Whether caused by soft tissue entrapment, trauma, iatrogenic injury, or from an idiopathic basis; nerve disorders are approached by careful history and examination followed by nonoperative treatment. In cases that do not respond, meticulous surgical management can be helpful in many cases.
