[Purpose] This study examined the effects of the intrinsic foot muscle exercise combined with interphalangeal flexion exercise on metatarsalgia with Morton's toe. [Subject] A 38-year-old male with Morton's toe, who complained of pain in his left metatarsophalangeal joints was the subject. [Methods] The pressure pain threshold, peak contact pressure of the metatarsophalangeal region during gait, and the navicular drop were measured before and after the intrinsic foot muscles exercises combined with interphalangeal flexion exercise. [Results] After exercising for 2 weeks, the pressure pain threshold increased from 1 to 1.5 kg, while the peak contact pressure decreased from 0.63 to 0.50 kg/cm(2), and the navicular drop improved from 5 to 8 mm. [Conclusion] The results show that the combined exercises alleviated the pain while walking by reducing the excessive pressure on the metatarsophalangeal region, and the improvement of gait with Morton's toe.
