Hallux varus
Hallux varus is a deformity of the great toe joint where the hallux (great toe) is deviated medially (towards the midline of the body) away from the first metatarsal bone. The hallux usually moves in the transverse plane. Unlike hallux valgus, also known as hallux abducto valgus or bunion, hallux varus is uncommon in the West but it is common in cultures where the population remains unshod.

gollark: You don't need to copy to substringize a length-prefixed string. You just create a new string struct thing with a different pointer and smaller length backed by the same memory.
gollark: If you don't mind damaging the original string, sure?
gollark: O(n) is slower than O(1).
