If you’ve ever wondered why one of your toes curls down underneath its neighbors, it may be because you have a hammer toe or a defect in the middle joint of your toe. “A hammertoe is a contracture in a toe where the tendon can pull the toe from the bottom or the top,” explains board-certfied foot and ankle surgeon Bradley Schaeffer, DPM . “When this contracture happens, the toe deforms and seems to look like a hammer.” Though you may not think much about your feet until they start to give you problems, they're among our most frequently used body parts, and keeping them in good shape can significantly affect your quality of life, especially if you're a runner. Although most of us wear shoes throughout the day, our feet were built to spread and bend as we walk barefoot. Over time, this type of motion can cause our toes to begin shifting closer together, which can cause some serious issues like hammer toes, bunions, and severe callusing.Relieves pain and reduces irritation from various foot conditions including overlapping toes, hammer toes, bunions, tendonitis, arthritis and more... If you need to wear one during the day, you’ll need to choose a style that can be worn with shoes; if you only want to use one at night (or while you’re binging Netflix), you have more options. This is a Schedule 8 medication and can only be supplied if the prescription meets all relevant Australian health regulations.

But like many of the other pain relievers on this list, there is no suggested maximum amount of time that they can be worn, make sure to take breaks and not wear them overnight until you know how they interact with your feet. The brace sits under the ball of the foot (which can add extra cushion and support to the ball of your foot and help reduce arch pain) and has an adjustable strap that goes up and around the toe—so it can fit any adult toe, no matter how big or small. The strap is made of fabric and looks like a band-aid when worn, so no one would be able to tell that you’re wearing a toe support. Just adjust the strap so that it keeps your hammer toe straight and flat—but make sure not to over-tighten it and cause discomfort.

Hammertoe straighteners can be worn whenever someone is feeling pain or going for a long walk where they know that their toes are going to hurt them," says Schaeffer. “But in the end, this is a very short-term fix.”We compared many products and looked at the quality of materials that were used, how they were designed, and how easy or difficult they were to use.

When you’re shopping for new shoes, wear your orthotics to find the best size and fit.
