Lamellar wedge toe view. Grooving, event lines,
quarter distortion |
|
Yep, that is my kitchen |
|
Heel view, note contraction, underrun heels,
atrophy of digital cushion, peripheral loading |
|
Sole view, not clear in photo but it was bulging.
Natural balance shoe, very little wear |
|
You can see more of the state of the sole here.
I've cut the toe off |

This view shows the capsule distortion and my kitchen table... |
|
No that wasn't me, the laminae really have gone mushy |
|
The distal border of the pedal bone has disintegrated as

Pedal bone is very damaged and is infected/rotting |
|
A better view of the damage to pedal bone.
And my grubby kitchen floor. I hasten to add I took my
gloves off after the dissection so as to not get gloop on the camera |

- This foot is from southern UK not a backwater in a third world country.
Let's work together to ensure that feet like this get consigned to history.
