A member asked:

My boyfriend has 4 footfingers at right foot & im kind of freak out, his parents had trouble in conception & he is onlychild. what to do? worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Missing toe: This is often due to a condition called amniotic band, where a band of scar tissue forms around the toes cutting off the blood supply for development, sort of like a rubber band. While this may be due to other conditions that may pose risk, this is unlikely.
