FAQs About Visco Gel Hammer Toe Cushion

Do hammer toe cushions work?

They can prevent your hammer toe from getting worse because they help counteract the muscle-tendon imbalance that caused the hammer toe in the first place. If you have a hammer toe, wearing custom orthotics can reduce foot pain and prevent your hammer toe from getting worse over time.

How do you straighten hammer toes?

Hammertoes cannot be straightened without surgery. Once the toe has started to bend, conservative treatments alone will not reverse it, but can only slow its progression.

Can hammertoes cause balance problems?

The discomfort caused by a hammertoe can contribute to imbalance and potential falls, especially as you age and your natural balance weakens. As your hammertoe progresses, the pain can force you to adjust or limit your activities and ultimately affect your daily life.
