Do wearing toe spacers really offer any advantage when it comes to foot health or any thing of the sort?

Question

And I don't mean the ones that you use for a pedicure. I'm talking about individual toe spacers that just go between two toes, not all of them.

Answer 1

No! using toe spacers, other than for their intended use (pedicures etc.) will damage your toes. Toes are naturally close together and are used for balance. Spacing your toes for long periods will effect your balance at the very least.

Answer 2

No, the purpose of toe spacers is so when polish is being applied, you don't get it on the toe next to it.
