Congenital hallux varus is believed to result from abnormal development of the foot during fetal development, although the exact cause is not always known. It may occur in isolation or in association with other congenital foot deformities.

Diagnosis is typically based on a clinical examination, medical history, and imaging studies such as X-rays to assess the alignment and structure of the foot and toes.

Symptoms may include a visible deviation of the big toe away from the midline of the foot, difficulty wearing shoes, and cosmetic concerns. In some cases, congenital hallux varus may be associated with other foot deformities or developmental abnormalities.

Treatment may include conservative measures such as stretching exercises, splinting, taping, and custom orthotic devices to promote normal foot development. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to realign the toe and restore proper foot alignment and function.
