Ever wondered why your second toe is longer than your big toe? This clip dives into the genetic reasons behind it and how it affects your footwear. #Genetics #FootCare #ToeLength

So you have this veil here and then a couple similar ones on the other foot and you started noticing that in high school when you were playing hockey, baseball, football, LaCrosse? Yeah, and that kind of thing. And high school was what about seven years ago for you? Um, six, seven years? Yeah, seven years. Okay. Alright, so once the nail is damaged, it generally doesn’t get better, but we can keep you comfortable and ultimately if we have to, we can always remove the nail permanently but you’re awfully young for that. I would hate to see you go through your whole life without a nail. So we’ll just see if we can keep you comfortable. How does that sound? That sounds good. And then um, we’ll also send a sample in of the nail just to test it and make sure that it’s not um fungal. But given how much longer that second toe is than your big toe, it probably has been hitting the front of your shoe for decades. And the, and the the shape of the foot and the length of the toe is really genetic. Who else in your family has feet with super long second toes?
