Suggest Treatment For Crooked Toes And Pain In Feet Of A Child

My three year old son has two crooked toes on each foot. He walks on his toes most of the time and has recently started saying his feet hurt. What course of action can be taken? We don't currently have insurance and if there is something to do at home I would love to know.

It could be a congenital problem. Putting too much pressure on the toes while walking will result in toe pain...u have to take an x ray of foot and see if it can be corrected...in that case corrective surgery can be done...
