3. A runner with strange shin bruises.  
from : Joy
 
Hi, I'm a great follower of your blog - fascinating stuff! I was wondering if I could ask you a quick question as nobody I've spoken to has been able to help:I've been getting bruises that appear on my shin during running. They don't hurt, I'm just wary of ignoring what could be a warning sign. Have you ever come across this before? (It's mainly the spot where I had a tibial stress fracture last year, but I also get a few other apparently spontaneous bruises on my lower legs.)
4. Is that a forefoot varus or are you just happy to see me ?
Functional vs Anatomic vs. Compensated forefoot varus foot postures. A loose discussion.
5. A reader's pet peeve about shoe store "gait analysis".
6. Thoughts on pronation and the like.
7. Case study:  First toe fusion and implications long and short term.
"I had a patient today with an MTP fusion of his great toe after adverse complications from a bunionectomy.  Do you have any recommendations for gait training when great toe dorsiflexion is no longer an option?  He is currently compensating by externally rotating his foot and overpronating.  I'm thinking through it and  I know he has to gain the motion elsewhere to help normalize his gait as much as possible, so possibly gaining ankle dorsiflexion and hip extension.  Just wondering if you have any tips to share or articles to point me to for further ideas.  Continuing my research now.  I'm a relatively new grad and this is my first patient I'm seeing with this fusion. Many thanks
