Toe Deformities

Expert Toe Deformity Solutions
Comprehensive Correction for Hammertoes, Claws, and Mallet Toes
Toe deformities include a range of conditions where one or more toes develop abnormal bends or contractures at their joints, such as hammertoes that bend at the middle joint, claw toes that curl at both joints, and mallet toes that bend at the tip joint. These deformities can result from muscle imbalances, arthritis, ill-fitting shoes, nerve conditions, or genetic predisposition, leading to painful corns and calluses where the bent toe rubs against footwear, difficulty finding shoes that fit comfortably, trouble walking or balancing, and progressive worsening as the toe becomes increasingly rigid over time.
We assess the flexibility of your toe deformities, identify underlying causes like bunions or neurological issues that may be contributing, and determine whether your toes are still flexible or have become fixed in their abnormal positions. Our treatment begins with non-invasive options including roomier footwear with high toe boxes, custom orthotics to address biomechanical factors, padding and strapping to relieve pressure and gently reposition toes, toe spacers, and strengthening exercises, advancing to surgical correction through procedures like tendon releases, joint resection, or fusion to permanently straighten rigid deformities when conservative care no longer provides relief.
Our mission is to relieve your pain, improve the appearance of your toes, and restore your ability to wear normal shoes comfortably. Early intervention with flexible deformities often prevents them from becoming rigid and requiring surgery, but when surgical correction is needed, we use proven techniques that provide lasting results, allowing you to walk without pain, eliminate those troublesome corns, and feel confident showing your feet again.
