Understanding Claw Toes and It's Symptoms
Claw toes occur when the smaller toes bend into a claw-like shape. This can be caused by muscle imbalance, nerve damage, poor footwear, or underlying conditions like diabetes or arthritis. Left untreated, claw toes may become stiff, painful, and harder to manage over time.
You might notice discomfort when walking, rubbing inside shoes, or corns and calluses developing. In more severe cases, movement becomes restricted, and daily activities may be affected.
A clear diagnosis is important. At Chelmsford Physio, we assess the affected toes, foot posture, and muscle function to understand the root cause and create a treatment plan tailored to you.
How Podiatry Can Help With Claw Toes
Podiatry can be highly effective in easing the pain and improving the function of claw toes. Early intervention makes a big difference.
At Chelmsford Physio, we focus on reducing discomfort, correcting movement, and preventing further changes in the foot. Treatment may include toe stretches, strengthening exercises, footwear advice, and orthotics to support the foot and offload pressure. Padding or toe splints may also be recommended to improve alignment.
If claw toes are linked to other issues like diabetes or nerve problems, we’ll take a full-body approach to help support your recovery. Our goal is to help you stay active and mobile with less pain and greater ease.
