About Hammer Toe Correction

Hammer toe correction straightens a toe that is bent at the middle joint. It is for people whose toe causes pain, rubbing or trouble with shoes that does not improve with padding or footwear changes.

Under regional anaesthesia, the surgeon makes a small incision over the toe and releases or lengthens tight tendons. For fixed deformities, the joint is fused or part of the bone is removed, and a pin or implant may hold the toe straight while it heals. It is usually a day case and often done with bunion or other forefoot surgery.

Usually a good fit if

  • A painful hammer toe with corns or sores that does not improve with wide shoes, pads or insoles.
  • Toe deformity that makes shoes difficult.
  • A fixed toe or one at risk of skin breakdown.
  • Good circulation and healthy skin.

May need to wait if

  • Poor circulation, active infection or uncontrolled diabetes.
  • A flexible toe that responds to splints or exercises.
  • An underlying cause such as nerve disease that is untreated.
  • Unwilling to restrict activity for a few weeks.
How to prepare
  1. Have weight-bearing foot X-rays to assess the toe and any related bunion or foot deformity.
  2. Mention diabetes, circulation problems and smoking, which affect healing.
  3. Review blood thinners and anti-inflammatory medicines with your doctor; do not change them yourself.
  4. Plan for a surgical shoe and elevating the foot, and arrange a lift home.
  5. Check fitness to fly and clot prevention.
Questions to ask your surgeon
  1. Is the toe flexible or fixed, and which procedure will you use?
  2. Will a wire or implant be used, and when is it removed?
  3. Will other deformities such as a bunion be treated together?
  4. What are the risks of stiffness, floating toe or recurrence?
  5. When can I wear normal shoes?
  6. What follow-up can I have at home?
Red flags when comparing hospitals
  • No weight-bearing X-rays or foot assessment before surgery.
  • Treating the toe alone when a bunion or other deformity drives the problem.
  • Promising a perfectly straight, fully moving toe.
  • No plan for wire removal or dressing changes.
