Yes, absolutely.
In toe socks that follow the shape of your feet, you can move as if you were barefoot. This means: your toes move freely and become stronger over time, your foot muscles train and get used to a healthy posture.
This will help you avoid many misalignments and pain.
Even if you suffer from foot problems, special toe socks can provide relief.
Bunion is a very common deformity of the metatarsophalangeal joint: the big toe begins to bend inwards and the bone becomes visible on the side. Depending on its severity, this can be very painful and has various causes (including genetic reasons, health reasons, but also wearing shoes that are too tight promotes this deformity).
Toe socks take away the pressure that socks normally exert on the big toe and promote a natural posture. Compression on the midfoot also supports the tendons and ligaments in the arch area, which are usually weakened in hallux valgus feet. This provides pleasant relief and can reduce pain.
Athlete's foot often develops in shoes that are too tight and with poor ventilation.
Unlike ordinary socks, toe socks keep the toes separate - and thus deprive germs of the space between the toes to grow. Your feet can regulate their temperature much better in toe socks, less sweat accumulates and foot odor is less likely to occur.
If you have athlete's foot, you must treat it with antimicotics to kill the fungus.
However, it is important to ensure that your feet are clean and well ventilated , both as a preventative measure and during treatment.
To make it more difficult for germs to spread, cotton socks with silver fibers are ideal, e.g. from the Dr. Foot® Silver Protect line:
