A member asked:
I have a moderate to large bunion on both feet, they don't cause any pain but i was wondering would a bunion splint straighten my big toe out?

You can try it: But I don't think they work. The problem is structural in nature, and I just don't believe they work.

NO: If it's moderate to large, as you say, a splint cannot straighten the toe.
