Background: The foot is the most distally situated bone consisting of many other smaller bones and joints which play very essential role in foot biomechanics while walking or standing that is on weight bearing. Metatarsals of the foot are designed such that the weight is distributed equally on all the 5 metatarsals. In fairy toe syndrome, the fifth metatarsal is mal aligned or abnormally placed causing alteration in the associated biomechanics of the foot which may result in deformity leading to chronic pain. The objectives of the study was to identify whether the fairy toe syndrome is present in general population and to identify whether it is present in weight bearing, non-weight bearing or in both the situations.
