Morton’s Toe

Morton’s toe is not a condition, but rather a hereditary feature. This characteristic is present in about 10% of the world’s population and is not harmful. People who have Morton’s toes have a second toe that’s longer than their big toe.

What’s interesting is that Morton’s toe has a symbolic significance in India. According to History Daily, people with a particularly large second toe are deemed to value happiness over money in the Indian culture. And guess what? The Indians may be right to merit the elusive Morton’s toe, as studies have concluded it is correlated with a slight athletic advantage.
