Thank you! It’s good to know I have a partner in thought, but don’t want to do anything that would push me into another issue. Exactly with you on wondering what taping toes together would do (and even making a splint with something like popsicle sticks or some brace to straighten them, similar to how braces straighten teeth) Things we understand we don’t try at home alone, but wish doctors had ideas for. Like you, it’s my middle 3 toes, left foot, though my feet are narrow and wide toed shoes tend to come in wide for the whole foot, and I can’t have that slipping and sliding. My PT and I tried to see what bands could do, obviously had to be thick office rubber bands since we’re talking tiny toe stretches, but we couldn’t get it just right.

Have you seen toe separators? Not sure they would be easy for me to get on the toes but it might be helpful --- https://www.amazon.com/s?k=toe+separator&sprefix=toe%2Caps%2C91&ref=nb_sb_ss_mission-aware-v1_1_3
