Toe deformities can cause significant pain, limit mobility, and affect the overall quality of life. At ASG Foot & Ankle Clinic in the South Chicago suburbs, we specialize in treating all types of toe deformities with both conservative and surgical approaches. Our board-certified podiatrists have nearly 30 years of experience helping patients regain pain-free function.
Whether you're dealing with bunions, hammertoes, claw toes, or mallet toes, we provide comprehensive care that addresses the root cause of your condition and prevents future problems.
A bony bump at the base of the big toe where the joint protrudes outward. This is one of the most common toe deformities we see in our South Chicago suburbs practice.
The toe bends downward at the middle joint, causing it to resemble a hammer. This can affect any toe but is most common in the second toe.
Similar to hammertoes but more severe - the toe bends at both the middle and end joints, creating a claw-like appearance.
The toe bends downward at the end joint (closest to the toenail). This is less common than hammertoes but can be equally painful.
Tight, narrow shoes that squeeze toes together or high heels that force toes into unnatural positions
Inherited foot structure and biomechanics that predispose some people to developing deformities
Trauma to the toes or joints, or degenerative conditions like rheumatoid arthritis
For early-stage deformities or patients who want to avoid surgery, we offer effective non-surgical options.
