Correcting Toe Deformities 

Hammertoe Treatment 

Hammertoes are progressive deformities that occur when one or more of the smaller toes bend abnormally at the middle joint, creating a hammer-like appearance that can cause significant pain, difficulty finding comfortable footwear, and progressive worsening over time if left untreated. At Advanced Foot & Ankle Center, we understand that hammertoes not only cause physical discomfort but can also limit your shoe choices and make it challenging to participate in activities you enjoy.


Our comprehensive evaluation includes assessment of the flexibility of the deformed joint, identification of contributing factors such as muscle imbalances or biomechanical abnormalities, and evaluation of any associated conditions like bunions or arthritis that may be influencing the deformity. We begin treatment with conservative approaches including custom orthotics to redistribute pressure and improve foot mechanics, specialized padding and toe splints to reduce friction and maintain better alignment, and footwear modifications to accommodate the deformity while reducing pain.


For patients with rigid deformities or those who don't achieve adequate relief with conservative care, we offer advanced surgical techniques ranging from minimally invasive tendon releases and joint mobilization to more comprehensive procedures that restore normal toe alignment and function. Our goal is to eliminate your pain, improve your ability to wear shoes comfortably, and prevent further progression of the deformity.
