Hammer Toe / Floating Toe

Hammertoe is a deformity of the second, third, or fourth toe that causes it to point downward. The deformity is the result of arthritis, poorly-fitted footwear, unusually high arches, or tight tendons and ligaments in the foot. Initially this deformity can be addressed with straps and stretching. If left untreated, it can become fixed and require surgery, a procedure known as a Weil Osteotomy. BioSkin carries products that help to correct this problem before surgery, as well as straps to be used as rehabilitation post-operation.
