Hammertoe Treatment

Straighten painful, bent toes and prevent painful pressure.

Hammertoe Treatment

A hammertoe is a toe that bends abnormally at the middle joint, creating a hammer-like shape. As the deformity becomes more rigid, it can cause painful corns, calluses, and difficulty wearing shoes.

At Wigley Feet, we treat hammertoes at every stage — from flexible early deformities that respond to padding and orthotics, to rigid toes that benefit from surgical correction.
