Arthritic changes in big toes, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : What the changes are and where exactly they are located. Would also depend on how much pain it is causing. If there is no pain you don't necessarily have to do anything. Options include: topical antiinflammatories, injection therapy, orthotics and surgery.
