Morton’s Toe, JFK, and why you hurt

Dr. Janet Travell, wrote and taught for four decades that a common foot problem known as a “Morton’s Toe”  (Long Second Toe)  could be the real cause of back, hip, knee, leg, foot and ankles problems.  Dr Travell  was Presidents Kennedy and Johnson White House doctor.
A “Morton’s Toe” means having either one or both of two abnormal, inherited conditions of the first metatarsal bone of the foot.
  1. The first abnormal condition, and the most noted one, that can cause Morton’s Toe is where your first metatarsal bone is shorter than your second metatarsal bone.
  2. The second condition is when your first metatarsal bone is not as stable as it should be, and as a result, has too much motion. This is  known as “Hypermobility of the First Metatarsal Bone.”

Either one of these can be the cause why you got out of bed hurting  today.   You owe it to yourself and family to learn more about the Morton’s Toe
