A hammer toe is a condition in which a muscle imbalance causes one or more toes to be continuously bent at the middle joint. Hammer toes often cause pain and swelling, and may make it more difficult to walk. For particularly stiff hammer toes, your doctor may recommend Hammer Toe Surgery. During this procedure, your doctor will correct your hammer toe(s) by removing or shaving down excess bone, releasing or transferring tendons, or inserting a small pin to immobilize the joint, allowing it to fuse in a flat position.
