What is a hammertoe?
Do you have a bend in the middle joint of one of your toes? You may be developing a hammertoe. It is very common for primary care physicians to refer their patients to a foot specialist, like Dr. Richard Swails or Dr. Dustin Lloyd, when the signs of a hammertoe deformity start to present. These include the shifting position on one or more toes, corns and callouses where toes rub together, and the inability to rest toes in a normal position. Drs. Swails and Lloyd have many years of experience as board-certified and fellowship-trained podiatrists and can help you with a hammertoe by treating the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that become barriers for the toes to remain in a relaxed position.
When you come into our Frisco, TX facility, you may already have imaging and other documentation to share with our podiatrists. We welcome the information, but we may also take additional or more advanced imaging when required. Our main priority is to provide you with the most up-to-date techniques and treatments to relieve your hammertoe condition and discomfort. Once the toe is in a very rigid, bent position, surgery may be required. Drs. Swails and Lloyd want to offer you a consultation for your hammertoe to protect the bones and joints in your feet. Contact our office today to set up your first appointment at Preston Surgery Center.
