Toe amputation: causes, surgery, recovery and complications
There are a number of different reasons why a toe may need to be amputated. As with various other amputations, a common reason is following trauma or injury. Another reason for toe amputation is when the blood supply to the toe is reduced, in conditions such as vascular disease, diabetes or frostbite. In these situations, the toe can become gangrenous due to a lack of blood supply, which can be life threatening if not addressed.
