Is there some sort of thing that can hold the big toe away from the second toe? like tp?

Yes, but...: There are splints made to help hold the toe in a proper position. I often use these after surgery for a few months to protect the toe while it's healing. However, these splints themselves will not correct a bunion. Look at hapad.Com for a nighttime bunion regulator and a viscoelastic toe spacer.
