Hammertoes

Relief from bent, painful toes through proven treatments.

Hammertoes develop when an imbalance in the muscles, tendons, or ligaments causes the toe to bend at the middle joint. This can lead to pain, corns, calluses, and difficulty with footwear. We provide both conservative management and surgical correction to relieve symptoms and restore normal toe alignment.

  • Bent toe at the middle joint
  • Pain at the top of the bent toe
  • Corns or calluses
  • Difficulty finding comfortable shoes

Treatments

  • Padding and taping
  • Shoe modifications
  • Custom orthotics
