Expert Hammertoe Correction At Harley Medical Foot and Nail Clinic
Hammertoe correction straightens toes that are bent due to tendon imbalance, arthritis, or pressure, reducing pain and improving the ability to wear shoes comfortably.
- On the day: Depending on severity, the procedure may involve tendon release, joint realignment, or temporary fixation under local anaesthetic. The toe is bandaged, and protective footwear is provided.
- Recovery: Mild swelling and discomfort are normal for 2–4 weeks, and stitches are usually removed or dissolve naturally. Most patients can resume regular footwear and walking within 4–6 weeks, with long-term relief from pain and improved toe alignment.
