crooked middle toes
by Shirley
(Gainesville Ga.)
My 14 yr.old grandson has crooked middle toes. As he grows these toes get longer and
more crooked. The deformation starts at the top joint. When he is playing football and basketball he has a lot of pain with these toes. We have tried all kinds of inserts and pads. None of these helped
My question: Would the TightRope surgery you do on Bunions work on crooked toes.
Hi Shirley,
The tightrope procedure is for bunion correction, not correction of third toe defomities. The only caveat here is if there is a severe bunion which is affecting the aligment of his toes, thus creating pain in the third toe.
