No way! This helped a great, immediate relief after 6 weeks of discomfort, pain & no exercise 😭
Thank you so much
I did a few of the moves you demonstrated and my pain went away overnight! Y’all are heaven sent and so practical! Grateful for your channel !🙏🏼❤️
U did not have osteophytes? Usually they are in present case of stiff toe
Several weeks of pain including being woken in middle of night, have been doing what these guys said for 10 days and now am almost totally pain free treating myself twice a day, thanks to both of you.
I have turf toe pain now. Could you please tell me how you got rid of your turf toe? Did you just do these exercises? Anything else? How long did it take before you reached full recovery? Did you need to do physical therapy or go to a podiatrist?
I saw a podiatrist today and he said I have hallux limitus; I sure hope this stuff works, or surgery would be in my future. He made it sound progressive, stiffer and stiffer.

Thank you!
Thank yoooou!
Thank you. I love these guys (or, their videos, anyway...) but they talk too much.
Had pain and no range of motion for a month in my big toe. Did everything in this video and it went away completely!!! I cannot thank y’all enough
I'm a personal trainer here on CZcams, and I have this toe pain! I'll see a podiatrist this week. Knowing the info from this vid allows me to ask my doc intelligent questions. Plus, now I know how to work on it myself to prevent surgery. Thanks Guys. Love ya both!
Thanks a ton for this helpful video. I recently had my 3rd ever gout flare up, and this time the negative effects lasted longer than before. One thing led to another, and my big toe stiffened up with tenderness on the side of my foot. After doing your recommended toe exercises, I have a lot more mobility than before I watched this video. I even have less pain when walking and my foot even looks better. Keep up the great work! I’m happy to have found this video.
I wanted to say thank you to you both! You guys have been a life saver thru out the last few years. I have had so many different issues because of my flat feet and difficulty with finding the right sneakers. Every issue I have had, you have helped me resolve ALL of it. Never have you steered me wrong! You guys are the best! Thank you!
Thank you for this🙏I hurt my big toe few weeks ago, and even that the swelling and the bruises are gone, my range of motion is limited. I can move my toe up, but not down. Following the instructions during the video, I received instant pain relief🙌
Thank you thank you! We got back from vaca and I woke up with a stiff toe. I've never had that happen before, but your exercises seem to be helping loosen the 'great toe.' Very grateful I found you guys! You're a blast too! Keep up the informative and fun vids!
This made my day!! I have big toe arthritis and it flares up about once a year...lasts about three-4 days. This video really helped, thank you so much!!!
I never leave youtube comments but I just want to say I appreciate that you guys do this! You help and you're also entertaining to watch which helps distract from the pain I'm usually feeling when I turn to your channel :) so thanks!
My toe pain started yesterday about night time but the pain was UNBELIEVABLE I know this was 3 years ago but just thank you, I would LITERALLY CRY when I could only find "foot pain" now I'm so happy especially when it worked.
I've been meaning to thank Bob & Brad! Have had intermittent foot pain in both feet for years, mild bunions. After doing these exercises pain went from a 9 (out of ten, felt broken could barely walk) to a 5 within minutes, down to a 1-2 next day and have had 0 pain for weeks since then. Easy daily exercise to keep feet limber.
May I ask how many reps you did of each exercise and how many times a day? Thank you so much. Encouraging to read of your pain relief.
You guys are the greatest!!! You have helped me work out so many kinks it’s fantastic. As soon as I have a pain, I look you up and you have the answers! From toes to shoulders to back issues, you name it... I can’t say enough. Thank you for all you have done! I worked construction and have since retired, and each body part seems to give me problems at one time or other. You both have been so much help. Have a great Holiday!
I have all the issues you described here. It’s like you’ve peeked into my life! Rigid great toes. Pain, stiffness and spasms. I never knew what was wrong. I am going to start these tonight! Now I do!! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this video, JUST what I needed
I have been limping around in pain the last few days and after doing the exercises shown in the video a couple of times over the last 10 hours, I’m already starting to significantly have less pain. Thank you Bob & Brad for providing your wonderful videos.
Great videos, guys! Very informative and helpful.
Thank you for the tips. Excellent comprehensive relief methods. I started today . Great stuff !
I play volleyball, and yesterday after the game, it started hurting a lot, but thank you for the exercises will definitely do them now!
Thank you I tryed some of the streches n to my amazement it relieved the pain a little I'll keep doing these exercises till it's back to normal thanks dortors
Guys, thanks a lot. You just don't know how much you've helped me today. I had a stiff toe for a few days now, and was aggravated by my shoe, which was already over the 600km limit. My toe had significant pain relief after i've done the exercises. Thank you so much.
It can be incredibly painful and frustrating at 59 - I was walking in spite of it with very good walking shoes- toe box room and a bit of of curve to shoe to roll foot. I noticed complete remission after about 2 weeks UNTIL I stopped walking regularly. Back to the path for me! Thank you for your great videos
Thank you so much! My podiatrist could not recommend any exercises for my toe and told me rest only but after trying these I already feel better -- and more hopeful about walking painfree again!
Doctors is retards nowadays. My new motto is to scout the internet before going to a doctors. Or atleast go with a little bit of knowledge. (Be aware to search on internet, its 90% that some1 will scare you by saying its a big problem when its not. If anyone read this then its very important to keep that in mind)
mine gave no advice at all....just gave me $40 inserts and really grabbed the money before i left the office.
@@johhnywood4248 you are right.
Thanks a bunch! My podiatrist said my shoes couldn't have caused this, but I'm glad to see you called it out as a potential cause. I have increased my shoe size by .5 to 1 and it's made a big difference. I will also do these exercises as well. Appreciate it so much. Also, Go Vikings!
This is so easy and worked perfectly. Thank you!
Another great video from you guys packed with great advice many many thanks🇬🇧
Super advice always helps. I got a toe pain that was at a level 1-10 a 12.
Could not sleep . Did these exercises and it feels 25% better .
Thank you!!
Thanks, Gents. (Exercises start ca. 7:00)

Thank you so much guys. You're the best. This is the third time your perfect analysis and excersises help me to treat an injury.
This really worked!! Couldn't really even feel it before!! Ty guys!!!!
Thank you both so much. This video was EXTREMELY HELPFUL!!! 😀😀😀
It's so great that you make it possible for people to help themselves. Thanks and keep going!
I teach martial arts and have struggled with this for years. Just one week of these exercises has lessened the pain and swelling. It also gave me enough information to get proper orthopedic shoes. I can't thank you enough! My range of motion is even improved. I can't wait to buy Brad's book and learn more.
Damn I came here _because_ of my martial arts problem. Love ya
Thanks guys! Was doing exercises as you showed them. Knew my joint was sore but this isolated it to the downwards motion. Yowza! Gonna work on that. Thanks again!
Great advice from across the pond. Thanks guys
WOW!!! Thank you!
I was in severe pain at the beginning of this video. By the end, just from realignment, the pain has decreased by 75%. Also my gate has returned to almost unidentifiable discomfort.
I’ll continue to do the exercises. Very excited about the progress. It was looking very bleak.
Thank you. Great suggestions for footwear, I'm at my wits end with such bad toe pain. I'm off to do some toe stretches!
This is true and good information I get a pin last few days go and I just with your video and try same as you showing and I feel better. Thankfully for this video...
Brill, thanks guys. Just what I needed to hear
Amazing :) thank you for this!!!
I’ve been in pain & discomfort for weeks impacting my mood, mobility & wellbeing
Thankyou guys so much, already some of these exercises are making a great difference
You guys are brilliant!
Same with me, seems like I'm becoming depressed.
9 weeks ago a frozen ice pack. Fell on my great toe smack on the site as you demonstrated this exercise. No fractures but was sent to see podiatry next week. I did the Hallux Rigidus exercises and I got instant relief. Thank you for your helping me. I will surely recommend these exercise to my family when in need.
Sincerely happy.
Excellent Video. Thank You.
You guys are the key holders to freedom from pain. Please start your own line of products and sell them on your videos. People in pain get relief and you guys get well earned compensation. Win-win.
I love your videos, they've helped me so much
So glad that we could help:)
Thanks so much for this info. Bob & Brad, I was really worried about my big toe pain. I looked it up and got a name for the condition and saw you video listed for a cure. I love your vids, thanks again.
Thank you so much doctors. It really helps with your good exercises
Many thanks Bob & Brad!
Omg thank you! This pain has been annoying me for a while and this helped a lot. Thank you!
I'm developing capsulitis in my second toe after a bunionectomy. I don't know what to do.
This video is great. I have been looking for solutions for my joint pain. Unfortunately I have worn heels most of my career and my toe joints are paying for it. I plan to do Bob and Brad's toe therapy every day and will report how I am doing. I've learned from my research that other procedures can be very expensive and do not always work. Thank you Bob and Brad.
You guys are awesome. Thank you. 40 years of martial arts has done a number on my body with arthritis. I’ll take your advice and go to a doctor for more.
Make the big toe great again
Excellent!! 😂😂
Linda Groth 😂😂😂 Amazing LOL
It´s a tremendously big toe. It´s the greatest toe in the history of all toes. It´s a fantastic toe!
IT WAS A PERFECT TOE! THERE WAS NO QUID PRO TOE!
its tired of winning!
OMG THIS ACTUALLY WORKED
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great advice! Thank you!
Thanks guys! You're the best in the business!
So grateful for you guys 💗 Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge and time. I travel to remote regions often for work (and sometimes pleasure) and many times have no access to quality medical care. You've helped me nurse myself back to health many times 🙏 Question about exercises for bunion rehab: how many times a day should I perform them? How many reps/sets of each?
Thank you so much. I've had big toe pain for years and I've seen a podiatrist twice years apart but for the same issue, he gave shoe inserts. No diagnosis, exercises, referral for an x-ray nada!! Glad I now have a diagnosis and exercises to do. Question my big toes naturally curl up, is there anything I can do or is it just the way my joints are made? Thanks again, you're the best!!
Buy Yoga Toes and put them on 10 minutes a day and build it to hours.
Breath and relax so that area starts activating and flow energy and blood in there.
Thank you for this video.
Thanks for this! Helpful techniques!
Would calf raises be a good strengthener for this joint if there's no pain? I believe that would be considered "weight bearing". Also can this particular joint improve or at least not get worse with these exercises? Is changing footwear & manipulation all we got? Of course, an anti inflammatory diet & regular cardio & weight traing for the overall body will help. I feel like in the yr 2017 there would be way more medical advances for this problem.....(in my opinion, of course) thx!
Thank you so much! I could barely move my big toe before doing these exercises. My mobility has improved so much and the pain has gone from piercing and constant to an occasional dull ache. I’m so grateful!
Same in my case, I will be grateful forever to these doctors
Hey Heather Edwards, Have you still been doing these exercises after you wrote this comment? Is your toe better ?
Thank you for the information. I believe this information was really helpful and straight to the point thanks 🙏
Thanks! I wore old worn out shoes for painting, big mistake. Your recommendations helped a lot.
This segment is really helpful...Thank You. I also sought advice from podiatrist and custom orthodics and...surprise...surgery...were suggested. I like your option better....
Love, love, love the jingle!! 😊❤
This was a great help, thanks guys for sharing.
Awesome video !!. Thank you this was very helpful . Very much appreciated
I suffered this and I am not seeing a dr for it, but almost did because of the pain. What I did was soaked my feet in Epson salt with vigorous shakes from a essential oil, which was peppermint. When I did Epson salt alone nothing happened. But when I used the oil in it not only did it give me back mobility, but took away the pain. I used really warm water and soaked up to ankles. Now I can do these exercises, walk without avoiding pressure, and not be waken up in the night with pain. Even the weight of a sheet hurt. So please if you have no allergies do this. If you need to ventilate to do it do that even if you take it outside. It works! Soak at least until water turns cool, and even try with cool water at times.
jeanette c where can i find that oil
Nathan Montoya Amazon
Sounds like you had gout rather than hallux rigidus
Great video thanks. Can you explain why exercises are required to get the joint moving again, yet you recommend shoes with firm soles? Would a soft sole be better as it flexes the toe joint more frequently?
David Moncur - We are humans who need to move, every part of our body on a regular basis. It includes your toe joints. If you stop, the problem will return.
thanks bob and brad for the great video, helped me a lot almost solve my hallux rigidus issue, especially with the toe seperator method. Thanks a lot.
Going to start doing these daily! Saw this helped a lot of people in the comments and doing a lot of these gave me instant relief. Felt good enough to leave a review 😂 thank you guys!
Just what i need to do everyday x3 wakeup before doggywalkies and at night sitting. My great toes have bone growth and bone on bone between joint. Edit: I do burst jogging and warm Aqua aerobics and jump on ball of foot to break up micro bone growth and improve movement❤
Foam roller video!
Thankyou, this is a life saver. I thought I had gouts but when dieting didn't help, I tried this and it works. It must be the tight trainers I got. Being flat footed isn't helping either
The pulling of the big Toe saved my life and was able to help me finally sleep!! I was in pain for the past 3 weeks and was advised by my podiatrist to just rest it. Thanks a lot! I had a mri and I had joint paint in my first MTP joint.
Great info. Thanks. Can you increase microphone volume? I have mine on max and still have to hold to my ear to hear.
Thank you. Just diagnosed with Hallux rigidus :( I have a bone spur formation on the joint, which is causing pain and reduced mobility. I just started using the turf toe insert. Will these exercises also help if there is a bone spur already formed?
this the best channel for physical therapy no cap. thank yu!
You guys always come up with so much help. I was in a class for seniors and the last exercises were toe heel lifts then another with the toes in doing swats
It’s the outside side of my big toe I have a line cutting straight out but the other side feels fine
I have minor arthritis in the big toe. Hopefully, the exercises work.
Thanks for sharing these Practical and simple exercises for the big (great) toe.
Dude my toes feels great doing this, it pop like 5 times and feeeellls extra amazing, been hurting for days! Thank you so much doctor!
I have had this condition for nines years. Wearing flexible shoes with mild arch support helped me ( Nike Free Run and Altra Torin). If the shoes are too stiff, then my feet get stiff. Too much movement can hurt as well. I saw a podiatrist and he just told me to use a metal insert or the fusing option. I knew from experience that he was full of crap. All that to say, I'm excited to give this a shot. I'd give you a year's salary to remove this thorn in my life. Thanks. Subbed.
update?
jsagers2008 from experience...full of crap?
You've had 3 yrs to do these exercises, have they worked? Probably not.
After bunion surgery my toes is stiff, would this work to get my range back?
Russ Wilson - You absolutely need to start gentle movements every day! The body needs to move. No improvement will come by doing nothing.
Best PT I have found post surgery to relieve Hallux Rididus (arthritis) TY!
Thank you, excellent video. I have seen a podiatrist and she has helped a lot, but your advice here is what I really need to work on improving my range of motion. Thanks.
I am a adult ballet dancer. I just started my first classes ever in June 2015 2x a week & will be beginning pointe classes this September 2017. I use many of these exercises at home and while warming up. But my problem is I had badly brushed my great toe last year...walked into a staircase step in the dark...thought I was at the landing so I jammed it pretty hard in bare feet. It's finally seems to be healing and I have almost no pain when I pull on it. I exercise my feet daily. I also tape my toes, wear Ouchpouches to protect them while doing pointe. I love your you-tube videos. I am 59 years old and my attitude about ballet is to live my passion until I cannot do it anymore. Any suggestions /tips for ballet dancers?
Omg I love you for taking following your passion and not getting tied down to mere numbers(age). Thanks for sharing your story. It will be an inspiration for so many women and men around the world. Take care and goodluck :)
Approach dancing on point cautiously. It is no friend to your feet. As a former point dancer, I can tell you that you don’t want to create a life long condition that will affect as you age. You have many years ahead of you, so be smart about it. Listen to your body. Good luck to you!
This is AMAZING!!!!!! Thank you so much! My doctor told me the only thing I can do is get a cortisol injection if the pain gets bad. I miss yoga and doing lunges. I am so excited to keep doing these exercises. Thank you, thank you, thank you. :D
Did you ever get a cortisone shot, and, if so, how were your results? Thanks.
@@fitn56 this just came up in feed. Im a little but if you're still wondering. I have had mutiple rounds of cort shots. I personally HATE them. Hurt more in that area more then anywhere else on foot I got them. And....unfortunately for me the little bit of pain relief was NOT worth the shot. It lasted me only a few weeks. Each person has a different pain tolerence so your experience might be different. Hope that helps a litttle.✌
Amazing video will definitely add this to my self care regiment
You guys just diagnosed my problem exactly! Couldn't understand over the last several years why my great toes were giving me such problems. Actually started about 12 years ago with plantar fasciaitis. I'll be starting your exercises tonight
How did it go?
This video came up after I'd played a different physical therapy video and didn't click "stop" immediately, so out of the blue I heard the theme song: "Bob and Brad...the two most famous...physical therapists...on the internet!" and now I cannot stop laughing. OR playing it. Absolutely hilarious. It's Monday, and I needed this. Thank you.
I'm confused. You say to have a stiff shoe or a carbon insert to prevent the toe from moving but then you say you need to move the toe/joint.
I'm confused about the same thing!
Wow that’s great thanks so much I have it in both! I’m def going to do this ♥️
Thanks for the great info. video.
