Hammertoe
Comfortable Toes, Confident Steps
Straightening and Restoring Balance to Your Toes
Hammertoe is a common condition that occurs when one or more of the small toes bend abnormally at the middle joint, causing discomfort, corns, calluses, and difficulty wearing shoes. It often develops from muscle imbalances, tight footwear, arthritis, or previous injuries. Over time, the affected toe can become stiff and painful, making walking or standing uncomfortable.
At Foot & Ankle Surgical Associates, we begin with a detailed examination to determine whether your hammertoe is flexible or rigid. This allows us to create a treatment plan that fits your needs and activity level. Conservative options may include custom orthotics, shoe modifications, splints, padding, and exercises to relieve pain and improve alignment.
For more advanced or rigid hammertoes, we offer surgical correction to realign the joint and restore normal toe position. Our surgeons use modern, minimally invasive techniques designed to reduce recovery time and maximize comfort.
Our goal is to relieve pain, improve function, and help you return to your daily activities with confidence, one comfortable step at a time.
