Hello there Well intowing or pegion toe usually affects girls more than boys....also in most of the cases it runs in the family.....however the good news is most of the intowing kids grow out of it as they become old and in very rare cases surgery is required... Do share any recent xray/mri of your child if you have them to see the extent of tortion. Regards
