Are you suffering from hammer toe syndrome? Let's discuss exactly what it is, and then what to do about it.
Generally speaking it occurs in the lesser toes, usually the second or third by the dislocated joint closest to the foot. This causes the toe to rise and press against foot wear becoming irritated sometimes resulting in corn growth.
Bunions are also a major contributor which cause the foot to become disfigured. Other common causes are tight shoes, especially high heels,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], flat feet,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], arthritis, and hereditary factors.
The bottom line is it can be very painful and lead to abrasions to the top of the knuckle. When combined with bunions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it may even overlap the big toe causing even more discomfort.
There are several things you can do to improve the condition short of surgery. This would include:
Wear comfortable low heel shoes.
Avoid vinyl shoe material which doesn't breath, (it may promote toe fungus and bacteria).
Eat potassium rich diet to lesson chance of leg and foot cramps.
Massage foot and toes with anti fungal foot moisturizer
Wear high quality gel brace to correct dislocation ,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], reduce abrasion, and relieve pain.
Corns to the top of the affected hammer toe are common. Using a corrective brace will alleviate the friction causing the corn. Using a therapeutic lotion will reduce inflammation and risk of infection.
Early detection and preventative measures are the key to hammer toe relief to avoid the need for surgery and reduce pain and discomfort. When left untreated it is extremely unlikely the condition will lesson in severity.
