If you are a runner and you got diagnosed with a plantar plate sprain, you probably already figured that out plantar plate sprains can be frustrating.

The plantar plate ligament is on the bottom of the foot, at the base of the second toe and it helps hold the toe down against the ground.

What is crossover toe deformity?

Well, if you look at the foot from the top, typically crossover toe deformity means the big toe tilts this way and the second toe forms a hammer toe and tilts that way and goes over the big toe. When you have the second toe over the big toe, it causes lots of problems.

Today on the Doc on the Run podcast, we're talking about when a plantar plate tear can cause or contribute to the development of a thing called crossover toe deformity.
