Video Summary
Ross Nakaji, a physical therapist, explains rehabilitation for plantar plate and turf toe injuries. After initial immobilization, the first priority is restoring big toe range of motion, aiming for about 65 degrees of first MTP extension without pain, pinching, or stress. He suggests traction and gentle home exercises to regain motion. In later stages, rehab focuses on calf strength, balance, and controlled heel raises through full range, progressing to shaky, challenging single-leg work. Eventually, patients can train power and dynamic movements, including end-range toe loading and external forces, as long as it remains pain-free.
