Toe Joint & Nerve Disorders

Toe & Joint Care

Toe and joint disorders—such as bunions, hammertoes, arthritis, and gout—can lead to pain, stiffness, and difficulty with footwear and mobility. Nerve-related issues like neuromas or nerve compression may also cause burning, tingling, numbness, or shooting pain in the toes or forefoot. These conditions often worsen over time without proper care. We offer thorough evaluations and both conservative and surgical treatment options tailored to relieve discomfort, address nerve involvement, and restore natural function to your toes and joints.

toe joint and nerve issues

Bunions
A bunion is an enlargement of the joint at the base of the big toe that forms when the bone or tissue at the big toe joint moves out of place. If you suspect you have a bunion, find a podiatrist! Minimally invasive surgery is available.

Hammer Toes
A hammertoe is a contracture, or bending, of the toe at the first joint of the digit, called the proximal interphalangeal joint. This bending causes the toe to appear like an upside-down V when looked at from the side.

Neuromas
Also referred to as a “pinched nerve” or a nerve tumor, A neuroma is a painful condition. It is a benign growth of nerve tissue frequently found between the third and fourth toes.
