Understanding Toe Deformity Correction

Treatment for common toe deformities (hammer, claw, mallet toes) using conservative measures and precise surgical correction when needed.

Why does the Toe Deformity Correction deteriorate?

Toe deformities progress due to muscle/tendon imbalance, long-term poor footwear (narrow toe box/high heels), arthritis, prior trauma, neuropathy, or untreated early deformity. Over time fixed contractures, pressure sores, and painful corns develop, worsening function and pain.

How does Toe Deformity Correction help?

Toe deformity correction restores toe alignment and function, relieves pressure and pain, improves gait and shoe comfort, and prevents calluses and ulcers. Treatment ranges from splints and padding to minimally invasive tendon/osteotomy procedures or fusion for rigid deformities.

Conservative CareFlexible or early deformitiesShoe modification, toe splints, padding, physiotherapyImmediate symptom relief; ongoing use
Tendon Release / TransferFlexible deformities caused by muscle imbalanceLengthening or transferring tendons to rebalance toe forces4–8 weeks
Phalangeal Osteotomy (Toe Bone Realignment)Moderate structural deformitiesSmall bone cuts and fixation to realign toe6–10 weeks
Arthrodesis (Toe Fusion)Rigid, painful deformities or severe arthritisFusion of interphalangeal joint to hold toe straight8–12 weeks
Minimally Invasive Correction (Percutaneous)Mild to moderate deformities seeking quick recoverySmall incisions with burr or needle techniques3–6 weeks

Conservative Care

Non-surgical measures relieve pressure, correct mild deformity, and delay need for surgery.

Tendon Release / Transfer

Restores tendon balance allowing toe to straighten without bone cuts.

Phalangeal Osteotomy (Toe Bone Realignment)

Corrects bony alignment while preserving joint function.

Arthrodesis (Toe Fusion)

Provides permanent straightening and reliable pain relief for fixed deformities.

Minimally Invasive Correction (Percutaneous)

Less tissue trauma, smaller scars and faster return to shoes.
