The weakened muscle makes the tendons (tissues that connect
muscles to bone) shorter, causing the toes to curl under the feet.
Hammertoes can run in families. They can also be caused by shoes that are
too short. Hammertoes can cause problems with walking and can lead to other foot
problems, such as blisters, calluses, and sores. Splinting and corrective footwear can help in treating hammertoes.
In severe cases, surgery to straighten the toe may be necessary.
[b]Causes[/b]
It is possible to be born with a hammer toe, however many people develop the deformity
later in life. Common causes include tightened tendons that cause the toe to curl downward.
Nerve injuries or problems with the spinal cord.
Stubbing, jamming or breaking a toe. Having a
stroke. Being a diabetic. Having a second toe that is longer than the big toe.
Wearing high heels or tight shoes that crowd the toes and don?t allow them to lie flat.
Aging.

a contracted extensor tendon), or rubbing on another toe and causing a painful
buildup of thick skin, known as a corn.
