Hammertoes
A hammertoe is caused when the toe
buckles and begins to rub against the top of the shoe. This condition also
occurs with very long second toes. The callous that forms on the top of the toe
causes pain and discomfort. Treatment: Padding of the toe and
roomier shoes will sometimes help. Surgery is indicated for cases which do not
respond to conservative treatment.
