Hammer toes

 HAMMER TOES:
Yes, Did you know that wearing high heel is a very common cause of Hammer toes.
They are caused just biomechanically by elevating the heel, the whole Achilles tendon pulls the plantar fascia and all the flexor components, triggering the enormous forces of flexors to bend the toes at the weakest joint, so the toes adopt the aforementioned position that with time becomes rigid and the problems start with pain to the ball of the foot, or even callouses that show at the top of the deformity or even at the sole of the foot, with high risk to deform the toe nails or even form and ulcer and so fort all the complications that happen with progressive deformities.

But, please don't be alarm. There are always many thinks you can do.

The first step is look for professional help for adequate advice,  and because is never to late, we can offer you surgical simple solution with same day surgery and you can walk same day of surgery with protective shoe wear
