What Does Hammertoe Fixation Treat?
A hammertoe is a toe deformity where the toe is stuck in a curled position, like the head of a hammer. Any of the toes may be affected, the most likely however are the 2nd and 3rd. Anything that causes toe tendon and muscle imbalances can cause a hammer toe. Bunions and high heels are two very common causes.
Symptoms include:

Inability to move the toe
