Claw Toe: Diagnosis, Prevention and Treatment

What is the treatment for Claw Toe?

Treatment strategies used in curing the conditions are as follows:

  • Right Shoes: Right-sized and comfortable shoes with wide toe boxes and flatter heels help reduce the pain, pressure and chances of severe complications.
  • Physical Therapy: Exercising the affected toe helps by stretching the toe joint to a normal position and helps set back the joint in the right position gradually.
  • Bracing and Padding: Supports and pads help fix the toe in a normal position.
  • Surgery: If nothing works and the patient still feels pain and discomfort, surgery may be performed to set the toe in the right position.
