Second Toe Amputation - Effects
avatar
professor1 posted:
I am considering having my second toe removed because of its uncontrolled crossover the great toe. I would very much like to read of the effects experienced after surgery of those who have had this procedure. How long and how intense was the post-operative discomfort? Did the great toe shift inward after removal of the second toe? What were the effects on walking and/or running. Other effects?
Thanks -- JR

We have some information on on this condition here: Hammer,Claw,and Mallet Toes

Generally, surgery is used only for severe toe deformities. Surgery may not completely return your toes to their normal positions, and toe joint problems may return after the surgery.

Have you tried all of the non-surgery options outlined in the article above?
