Effective Treatment for Painful Hammertoes & Toe Deformities

Daniel Zilberbrand Podiatry provides advanced hammertoe surgery in Hempstead to help patients relieve pain, correct toe deformities, and restore comfort when walking. Hammertoes can worsen over time, causing friction, corns, and difficulty wearing shoes if left untreated.

Treatment options range from conservative care to surgical correction, depending on the severity of the deformity.

What Is Hammertoe Surgery?

Hammertoe surgery is a procedure performed to correct a toe deformity in which one or more toes bend abnormally at the middle joint. Hammertoes often develop due to muscle imbalance, improper footwear, injury, or underlying foot structure issues.

When hammertoes become rigid, painful, or unresponsive to non-surgical care, surgery may be recommended to straighten the toe and restore proper alignment.
