What Does It Mean When Your Toes Are Curled?
Hi My name is Cathy Doyle 71 yrs old I have had PD for about 10 years and am still very active. Exercice is moderate. In the last 3 months my toes on my left foot have started to curl downward. They hurt somewhat . I have neuropathy in both feet. I take carbidopa/Levodopa 25/100 - 6 pills a day . My weight is 154 and am 5 9 I also take BP pills a statin, lasix (I retain fluid) mirapex gabapentin, an acid reducer for Gerd. What is this called and is there a brace for this?

The curling of toes is related to osteoarthritis or contracture of the fascia. Strapping with the next finger can help.
