There are three common causes of curved, misshapen toes that require different corrections depending on the cause. The most common cause of bunion deformity is bunion deformity. Once a bunion deformity occurs, patients with mild bunion deformity can wear bunion pads or bunion correctors for a long period of time, which can allow patients with mild bunion deformity to get some correction. However, for patients with moderate and severe bunion deformity, the deformity can only be treated through surgical means. If the toe deformity is caused by rheumatoid arthritis, only the rheumatoid arthritis needs to be treated in the early stage. If the deformity of the toe is not corrected after treatment or after a long period of time, it can only be treated surgically. It is also possible that the deformity occurs after a foot fracture, which can also only be treated by surgery.
