how do I Repair corrupted .jpg files

DropBox uploaded all my photo library files except three photos it says are corrupted. Can I repair the .jpg files without a $30 app?

iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), macOS High Sierra (10.13), upgrade to 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

If I can view the photos, which I can, are they really corrupted? I identified them by sending my photo library through the "image capture" app. The app identified the same number of photos as dropbox claims are corrupted. I took the photos out of my library and pit them in a folder on my desktop; this stopped the error message from dropbox. {roving, I believe that these are the offending files. The pictures were taken with an iPhone6 series. If I can't repair them, so be it.
