A member asked:
I have a gap between my big toe and second toe, and my parents believe it is getting wider is there something i can buy to fix it without surgery?

Not yet: It may be just a normal anatomical variant. If no symptoms and the concern persists you may benefit from seeing a podiatrist for supportive devices.
