The investigators propose a new therapeutic approach by injecting Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTA) to the oblique and transverse heads of adductor muscle of the great toe. BTA works by binding presynaptically to high-affinity recognition sites on the cholinergic nerve terminals and decrease the release of acetylcholine, causing a neuromuscular blocking effect. The investigators hypothesize that BTA injection may help to decrease the hallux valgus angle by decrease adductor hallucis muscle activation. Thereby enhance the therapeutic result of hallux valgus treated with total contact insole. The outcome measurement may shed light in treating patient with painful hallux valgus and document evidence for plantar pressure changes in acute, sub-acute and chronic stage.
