Although hammer toe can develop in any of your toes, the condition most commonly occurs in the second, third or fourth toes. We\u2019ve developed <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"#video\"><strong>exercises for hammer toes<\/strong><\/a><\/span> that can lengthen the shortened muscles and tendons so you can straighten your toe and walk without foot pain.

These structures work together so you can bend and straighten your toes. Each toe except for your big toe has three joints: the metatarsophalangeal (at the base of your toe), the proximal interphalangeal (in the middle of your toe), and the distal phalangeal (closest to the toenail.) Hammer toe is the result of an imbalance in the structures surrounding your proximal interphalangeal joint. One of the most common causes of this imbalance is wearing shoes that are too tight. Footwear that is too narrow or has a heel that is too high can squeeze your toes into a bent position. If your toes stay in this formation for a long period of time, the surrounding muscles contract. After a while, you may find it difficult (or even impossible) to straighten your toe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other causes of hammer toe are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bunions\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arthritis\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">an injury to the toe<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may be at a higher risk of developing hammer toe if you have flat feet or longer toe bones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Signs that you have hammer toe include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a toe that is bent downward at the middle joint,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pain in your metatarsophalangeal joint,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">difficulty straightening your affected toe,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">calluses, corns, or blisters,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">swelling,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">difficulty walking.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a id=\"video\"><\/a>Treat Your Hammer Toe\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To maximize the benefits of our hammer toe routine, exercise intensely and intelligently.
