Hammertoe affects the second or middle joint in the toe causing it to bend downward. It typically affects a single toe, most commonly the second toe. Claw toe affects one or more of the little toes and can happen to all four toes. It can affect the middle and end toe joints and cause the toes to bend and curl under.
Hammertoes are so named because the toe resembles a hammer when the joint is stuck in an upward position. This deformity can cause pain and difficulty walking, and a corn or callus may appear on top of the joint. A joint going rigid, pain at the top of the bent toe, and swelling are some of the symptoms of hammertoes.
Tailor's bunions (also called bunionettes) may develop as a sensitive bump on the smallest, outer toe. Hammertoes happen when there's an abnormal bend in the middle joint of a toe, causing the tip of the toe to bend and face downward.
The main cause of hammertoe is a muscle and tendon imbalance, but other causes include ill-fitting shoes, age, and medical conditions such as arthritis and diabetes. Symptoms of the condition include pain, swelling, and problems with walking. Hammertoe shouldn't be ignored and can get worse if you do not get treatment.
A hammertoe gets its name from the way it looks from the side – with a fixed bend in one or both of the toe's joints, it creates a shape that looks like the head of a hammer. Fortunately, many cases of hammertoes can be improved, if not completely reversed, through nonsurgical measures.
Your doctor can diagnose hammertoe or mallet toe by examining your foot. Your doctor might order X-rays to further evaluate the bones and joints of your feet and toes.
