What is the relationship between dysfunction of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and the development or exacerbation of lower back pain?
No direct evidence for dysfunction of the first metatarsophalangeal joint causing lower back pain is identified, though indirect evidence suggests altered biomechanics may contribute to LBP. Addressing MTP joint dysfunction may be beneficial in managing chronic postural pain.
