Do toe braces work?

Toe braces have a therapeutic effect. If a toe has a flexion deformity or an ectropion deformity, the first consideration is conservative treatment, and one important method of conservative treatment is wearing orthotics. During the process of wearing the brace, it should be ensured that the tightness is appropriate. Gradually adjust the strength according to the development of the disease so that the orthoses always play the best therapeutic role and can improve the deformity of the toes, thus relieving the clinical symptoms. Milder patients can obtain a complete cure with the use of orthotics. The use of orthotics in patients with moderate or higher degrees will also lead to relief of clinical symptoms. Wearing orthotics especially after surgery can consolidate the treatment effect and avoid the recurrence of the deformity.
