Is hammertoe genetic?
Many factors can lead to the presence of bunions and hammertoes; two of the most common are environmental and genetic. There are different types of splints on the market which can help with the symptoms of a hammertoe, and custom inserts may be able to help keep the problem from worsening. Many people who have painful bunions and hammertoes do wind up needing to have them surgically corrected, which is really the only way to actually straighten the toes. If it comes to that, rest assured that it can be done with relatively little pain and disruption to your normal life. Seek the advice of a podiatrist in person if you continue to have problems!
