Update! SO much better! I have been doing these exercises and trying to walk on my whole foot. At first the toe bending was painful. I realized how tight those structures in my feet were. My third toe hurt the most during the stretch, but my 2nd toe is the hammer toe. Now my 2nd toe is almost completely flat, and is flexible-not rigid any more. The toe stretches feel good. Thanks so much!

The way shoes are made causes the disfigurement and needs to be changed to see the correct muscles of the foot strengthen. Many shoes have arch support, toe spring, round toes, and elevated heels. Who's feet are round? I recommend looking at brands like Altra, Topo, Xero, and Vivobarefoot. There are many more but these are my favorites. Myofascial release to the extensors in the anterior lower leg is critical. Good luck with your journey, I did mine 5 years ago after a broken foot.

My podiatrist said hammer toes are probably genetic when I told him my mom had said hers were from wearing ill fitting shoes as a child. She made sure to have my shoes fitted correctly when I was growing up for that reason but I still ended up with hammer toes. Thank you for this video, I'll use these exercises!

I found balancing on the affected foot for as long as possible helpful. I’m trying to bring that second metatarsal, phalanx down to better alignment. I also heard of standing with your toes on the edge of a step. Also, if you are walking for exercise, don’t stop. I didn’t realize how much it was doing for me. I stopped for a while, the symptoms of the hammertoe came back. It was hard to get going again.

Hi, I just subscribed. I have claw toes on my right foot only and it can be very painful when my toes slowly curl under. They become very tight if I don’t constantly raise them back up & wiggle them. This started about 6 months ago. I have been doing toe exercises, stretching & messaging but no improvements. 2 of my doctors seem to think it’s nothing to worry about. I’ll keep watching to see if I can figure out why this is happening and if there may be other exercise that could help. Thanks for the video. ☺️

I’ve had this problem for a long time and I’ve only found it getting better once I made the switch to flat wide toed shoes AND forefoot walking. I think this is because the shoes give the toes the space and stretching they need to splay and the fore foot walking allows my claves to properly activate to help balance everything out. It’s not a simple switch either I’ve been doing it for a couple years now and I’m still not 100% used to it.

Barefoot shoes are the next best thing to wearing no shoes at all. Just the way nature designed you.

Thanks so much Bob! A chiropractor and podiatrist later, I come across physiotherapists who can actually explain what's happening to my toe. I pieced together what you said, before seeing your vid, but it's great to hear smart people echo me. Lol. I appreciate the exercise tips. I've been grabbing towels and a hacky sac. Oh. My podiatrist told me to buy Hoka runners (he sneered at my barefoot shoes). I bought a pair, tried them on, now they sit on the box. I'm thinking of returning them, because the toe flips up.

Guys!! Are you aware of hyper mobile Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome? If you aren’t, please do some research because we who have it are desperate for help! I’m double jointed, even in my toes, but I’m going to give these stretches a go. Thanks for the great advice and humour! That makes it especially enticing to watch your videos! 😅

For feet with plantar faciatis and hammer toes do you stretch toes both up and down?

Bob, have your toes improved now that it is 2 years ago? I’m just seeing this video. And the one toe does rub up on the top of my shoe. I didn’t realize this was really related to plantar fasciitis too. Thx for all the great info. ❤

Good advice I am one who had tendon rerouting surgery (tendon disconnect last knuckle wrap around second knuckle and shave little bit off that knuckle to have little up flexion) felt it would be best option as can not afford further injuries maybe could try lifting big toe holding down other 4toe then lift 4toes holding down big toe try athleanx calf exercises check 3rehab? Take towel lay on floor fix part of towel between toes (like toe spacers) and squeeze holding muscle contracted off and on

I have hammer toes and will try this. But wearing Birkenstock shoes and doing yoga has also helped immensely.

Hello, Breaststroker here, I wanted to ask whether breaststroke is bad for your knees lifespan. Because we often go through a lot of flexibility exercise that put our knees in extreme angles. We also do a lot of a very tight version of the W sit where the ankles are touching the gluteals I really want to here your opinion on this!

I was just going to look for your videos about hammer toes ...my Mom had them too. I wonder if a cause are shoes and especially sandals and shoes that "stay on" because you have to point /flex your toes up as you take each step to keep them from coming off. I hope you make more videos about this subject. Thanks again.
