Restore Balance, Comfort & Mobility
Are you noticing one or more toes bending unnaturally or causing discomfort in your shoes? You may have a condition called hammer toe. At Family Footcare Group LLP, we specialize in non-surgical and surgical hammer toe treatment in New York to help realign and relieve your toes.
What Is Hammer Toe?
Hammer toe is a deformity in which the middle joint of a toe becomes bent downward, resembling a hammer. It typically affects the second, third, or fourth toes and can worsen over time if not treated. The condition may be flexible at first but can become rigid and painful without proper intervention.
Common Causes of Hammer Toe
- Wearing tight or ill-fitting shoes
- Foot structure abnormalities
- Arthritis or neuromuscular disorders
- Injury or trauma to the toe
- Imbalance of toe muscles and tendons
Symptoms of Hammer Toe
- Toe bent downward at the middle joint
- Pain or irritation when wearing shoes
- Corns or calluses on the top of the toe
- Difficulty walking or wearing footwear comfortably
Treatment Options for Hammer Toe
Our podiatrists begin with conservative approaches whenever possible, such as:
- Custom orthotics or shoe modifications
- Padding and taping to relieve pressure
- Toe splints or exercises to increase flexibility
- Anti-inflammatory medications
In more advanced or rigid cases, we may recommend minimally invasive surgical correction to straighten the toe and relieve chronic pain.
