Medically referred to as syndactyly (a name that also refers to webbed fingers), webbed toes are described as two or more toes fused together. While it is normal for animals such as ducks and frogs to have webbed toes, it is not as common among humans. During early fetal development, all our toes and fingers are webbed together.
If your child is born with webbed fingers and / or toes, the doctor will check for other signs to tell whether your child has a more complex condition. Your child may need an X-ray to see whether the bones are joined or only the skin and soft tissues are joined.
