I am a 55 yrold woman recently my toes on my right feet have been bothering me, it feels like they need to be cracked. i did wear flip flops for 2 yrs?

Need more info.: Many variables here, not sure which toes are bothering you, or if you have any history of pain or swelling. I doubt the flip flops have much to do with it. You may have a tendon issue and be developing something called "hammertoes", where the toes can get stuck in a flexed position. I suggest seeing a reputable podiatrist, or an orthopedist.
