How do you fix a twisted toe?
Crooked toes can often be corrected by lifestyle strategies, such as choosing well-fitting footwear and avoiding high heels. At-home treatments, such as wearing a splint or toe spacer, may also help. If the crooked toe has become set and rigid, or if it doesn't respond to at-home treatment, surgery may be recommended.
