Morton’s Toe
Morton’s toe is a foot variant characterized by the second toe being the longest. It is related to the Greek type of foot. According to the survey “Brazilian Feet”, which surveyed 26,339 people in 2012 (by Feet Without Pain), 32.8% of the population have Morton’s Finger. Morton’s finger has no specific cause or prevention, as it is an anatomical and hereditary condition. According to VeryWell Fit, Morton’s finger is a common variation in 10% to 20% of the population. Having Morton’s toe can lead to foot pain and the need to find shoes that fit better.
