What are the symptoms of hammertoe?

Hammertoe is a condition that causes your toes to take on an abnormal shape, bending at one or both of the joints in the smaller toes. The abnormal contracture caused by hammertoe can make it difficult to wear shoes without pain and discomfort.

Constant friction against your shoe can result in a number of symptoms, including:

• Inflammation
• Burning pain
• Redness
• Corns and calluses
