But again, thank you, you made my morning.
My 13 th right foot surgery will be this September 2024. This video helped me to understand what is going to happen to me. My story is quite the success story and I hope that will continue with my 13 th right foot surgery. Thank you so very much.
You are welcome. This is an old product though. Many of us have moved on to absorbable pins. take a look at this surgery. Horizontal incision is a better cosmetic outcome as well. - ua-cam.com/video/_fcxCeTAZt8/v-deo.html
Recovery is about 2 weeks with stitches and not getting your foot wet. As for driving, it depends upon which foot (left better than right of course) your confidence, and type of dressing/post operative shoe. Please feel free to contact my staff if you are interested in having an evaluation. -Dr. M
I appreciate this upload. Had a hammer toe surgery two years ago and I was always curious as to how it was done. This was my second sugery on the toe as the first one didn't work (they had just cut a ligament I think). The scar isn't so bad though visible and I can't move my toe up and down so I still find that a bit strange but at least the second surgery did the trick and the toe didn't revert like it did the first time after the first surgery. Got it done over Christmas break because of the 6 wk. recovery time.
Hi! They did leave scars on the tops of my toes but they are very faint. I can move my toes back and forth but they will not bend. I had my pins in for 6 weeks and then they pulled them out.I have read a lot of horror stories about having this surgery but I can honestly say it was not as bad as I thought it would be.I had to be in bed for 6 weeks which was no fun.The only time I was in tremendous pain was the few days after my surgery.My bones were sore for a few months. Hope some of this helps!
What's the difference between this treatment vs the one I see where they cut the tendon or whatever? It's in office and local anesthetic is used and they usually end up with a single stitch. The procedure usually takes minutes and they basically cut something under the toe that releases the hammer toe and it magically straightens out. Is surgery really necessary? Is there a difference between these 2 procedures?
@MFASclinic, what is the recovery process for the person after the surgery? also, would a person be able to bend the two like they were able to before, or with the implant it won't allow the toe to bend anymore?
Reponding to an earlier deleted comment from a post: there really is no secret lotion, cream or other substance that can remove the darkened or lightened coloring from a traditional 'corn'. It is a pressure lesion and the bone prominence below is what is causing it. So besides larger / no shoes, correcting the problem surgically is really the best way to take care of it permanently. -Dr. M
@MrNell84 I joined the Army with Hammertoes on 8 toes and had no problems enlisting. The only thing that sucked was hiking with 60lbs of gear with boots on rubbing the top of my toes. It hurt like hell, but I still made it through. Just ask for bigger boots and wear extra socks and padding. good luck
I had hammer toe surgery 18 years ago. My toe is now bent and so painful as it rubs on my big toe. Can a "smart toe" or pin straighten my toe out after a second surgery?
No. It stays in Lexi. Putting pins in and taking pins out is an older technique. Not a bad thing but once they are out, the toe can move - hence the smart toe or 'hammer lock' I am using to ensure that my patients toes stay straight. Let us know if we can help. Dr. Moore
I've had hammer toe all my life and It's never given me any problems. I forget that I have hammer toe until I take my shoe's off. I played baseball as a teen for 2 yrs I can walk, run, and still play sport for long periods of time and I'm fine. The thing is I've decided to join the Navy and I know that MEPS looks for these things. I really want to serve my country and I fear that this slight deformity may hinder me from enlisting. What do you suggest I do?
I have a question about this both of my second toes are similar to his and I'm looking at having this surgery done in a few weeks what is the typical recovery time? I'm active now with sports and I am just wandering how long I will have to be out of them. Thanks. Great video!
+Spencer Sedano Velasco Hey! I'm not too sure man I went to a podiatrist a week ago here where I'm from and he said he would need to remove my joint closest to the tip of my toe and insert a pin to straighten it. then after six weeks he would remove the pin and it should be healed mostly by then
@UglieToez Of course! Please take a look at my website blog to the far right of the homepage - " How can you straighten or shorten a toe?". It's about the 15th or 16th blog from the top. Give us a call if you have any other questions.
+Amy Sidious The price varies and out of pocket costs usually depend upon how high deductibles are. In short, all these procedures are covered by healthcare insurance and our staff goes over this as well as the surgery center costs.Thank you for watching and your kind comments,-Dr. Moore
That same toe same foot actually is twisted underneath my middle toe. the Dr has mentioned more than once about fixing the joint however after watching this video NO WAY. Beside all the others but one are hammer toes just not as bad as the one on my right foot.
I'm pretty sure I have hammertoe of the 4th toe and mallet toe of the 3rd toe on both feet. I also have accessory navicular bone on the left foot. both suck.
No, but we have had a patient fly in from Califonia and stay a few nights at a hotel. We do accept insurance and have a great relationship with an out patient surgery center. Log on to our website and/or give us a call for details.
Doc, great presentation while performing the procedure.! Can you please comment on pro\con of using "Trim-It" pin.? I am having Arthrodesis 2nd toe PIP due to Flexion issue Feb 4th 2010 and doc says he wants to use Trim-It pin. I am concerned of toe drift as you stated in your video. I don't know what HW is best to use. Thanks.
Yes Larry. The proximal interphalangeal joint where the surgery is performed really has no function during running except stabilization. Depending upon the surgeon and device used or not used, sutures should be remove in 2 weeks and light jogging can ensue as early as three weeks.
Larry Coulter I seriously doubt it. Their ability to extend the second toe is severely compromised while that guys sprinting days are long over. He must really really really want a straight second toe in order to have his furthest most joint cut out and replaced with a piece of ceramic or?? One thing is certain h he will never be able to flex his second toe again
Yeah he can still run. Second toe doesn’t do much with regards to biomechanics and the joint fused would be a limiting factor if you were a caveman climbing trees every day hunting for bananas.
Not only did we straighten this patient's toe and remove the 'bump' that was rubbing on his shoe, but it was slightly shortened so it would not hit the end of his shoe either. Furthermore we placed a hidden pin in his toe so his big toe won't push it over and heal at an angle. -Dr. Moore
I have severe pain in my left little toes and foot. At 18 that foot and toes fractured after jumping down on cement floor from top bunk bed. Then in my early 40s had that same foot run over by fork lift tire. It was sore and red for a few days after fork lift run over it but no pain a week to a year later and no swelling. But now 2 years later that foot and toes hurt like hell standing and walking at work for 8 hours straight. Not sure if i have that toe condition or just severe arthritis and or tendinitis maybe. Any way to surgically fix the pain issue in my foot and toes?
Apologies, but an examination, xrays and other tests are needed to answer this correctly. I would book and appointment with a local foot specialist. Good luck!
Very little. In fact if a local block is performed after surgery with a little dexamethasone mixed in there’s little to no inflammation. I’ve had patients take a few Tylenol or Advil after surgery and get by. Staying off the foot for the first 72 hours takes care of most of the Swelling and pain. Otherwise a light dose of hydrocodone is necessary sometimes but on a scale of 1 to 10, digital surgery never exceeds a five or six.
@encc007 The rob peter to pay paul issue with this surgery isthat a toe that does not bend is a toe that will not move to the right or left surgery. This complication is why the implant was born and well worth it. As for function, it will not change any activities, exercise, or evern playing sports. Recovery time is 12 weeks but may very from patient to patient.
I tell all my healthy patients with a good blood supply and ability to heal at any age...."after surgery you are simply healing from a cut on your toe" Make sure you find an experienced, ethical surgeon and then go for it Barbara. -Dr. Moore
I have to do the same in a week, can you tell me how long it took to walk and wear normal shoes after. I work out regularly and will this make me bedridden?
Good question. He is around 50 years old and was having problems with his second toe hitting the top and end of his dress shoes as well as a neuroma. We were just discussing this at our meeting the other day to film a woman's foot next. What is your feeling about that? thank you.

My mom is 85 yrs. old with a lot of leg and foot problems (circulation, had a bunch of surgeries). She has bad hammertoes on one foot already and is starting to get them on the other foot. She is scarred to death about having surgery, the breaking of toes and having pins in her feet. Can you tell me what is the pain level for people having this surgery on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the worst pain ever). I have been told that all her toes on one foot are bad. She is in severe pain now with the hammertoes. Thank you.
@@TheSuperbeauty24 I have no idea honestly. I was told but my insurance covered everything but a $20 post OP shoe. I know have had both feet done. Best thing I could have ever done. They told me it would take about a year before all the extra never sensation on incision sight on top of toes wouldn't be so sensitive. My feet don't hurt. Wear shoes fine. Had other foot done 4 weeks after I got out my post OP shoe on left foot. Only complaint I have is a gained a shoe size so I have to get ALL new shoes lol
Cristian Humer that's because the foot is planter flexed. Many cases of hammer toes are due to ligament problems up the leg so when dorsflexed (example walking on foot) the toes become bent
Reponse to Heidi De Cook: Of course Heidi. It will continue to keep the toe straight with shoe pressure and exercise too. come in for an evaluation. -Dr. M
So sorry I missed this. Acutally it is not a smart toe for the great toe joint. please visity my website and look up the great toe joint replacement video in my blog section. I have been putting in these implants for over 10 years with great success. not a big fan of fusing the joint............
well I had my hammertoe surgery on both babytoes On Friday June 12th 2015 Im dressing cast and boots for 3 weeks. Well Im also in stitches I have 5 stitches on both babytoes and I wont stitches out until July 6th 2015. The operation well my feet a still a littlebit sore. Heidi Burns Rourke
well on Monday July 6th 2015 I got my cast and stiches out from my hammertoe surgery feels good to have the cast off and stiches out. But I could get out the boot if I want to the doctor says I can but not ready for shoes yet their black and blue a little bit still and hurt. Heidi Burns Rourke

I wish they did those surgerys here in Sweden. I hate that my second toe is longer then my big toe and is so painful to wear shoes after a while
I'm getting this done in December..... Funny enough it will also be in my second toe on my right foot as well 😂
Good demo. I unnerstood it.
What's the difference between this treatment vs the one I see where they cut the tendon or whatever? It's in office and local anesthetic is used and they usually end up with a single stitch.

What do you do about a crooked pinky toe do you have a video
Thanks
How do I find a doctor in my area that performs something like this?
I had the same operation before 1 week.
Does the smart toe get removed? My doctor said something about removing the pins after 6 weeks would that be the same as this or something different?
I do have this hammer toe, and I wish it could be repaired, for I am very reluctant to wear a sandal. How can I get assistance? Please assist me.

-Dr. M
where are you guys located? will insurance cover this? and how long would recovery take?
@MrNell84 Oh btw. I just had the surgery done 3 weeks but my Doc. did not use smart toe, just the regular pins.
Yes this procedure is done under general anesthesia

That snap reminded me of Gestapo / SS torcher techniques utilized during WW2...
I had hammer toe surgery 18 years ago. My toe is now bent and so painful as it rubs on my big toe. Can a "smart toe" or pin straighten my toe out after a second surgery?
Of course Heidi. These devices not only stay in place but leave the toe straight with shoe pressure and running too. come by for an evaluation.
Can the toe still bend at that joint with with smart toe thing inserted?
Is general anesthesia, regional anesthesia or local anesthesia used? I would really hate to be awake and alert for this.
No. It stays in Lexi. Putting pins in and taking pins out is an older technique. Not a bad thing but once they are out, the toe can move - hence the smart toe or 'hammer lock' I am using to ensure that my patients toes stay straight. Let us know if we can help.

Yes there is!
Had the same surgery on 26th of semptember this year in Warsaw but with use of Kirchner's nail, done by dr Zbigniew Krogulec, the great foot surgeon
I assume this is done under general anaesthetic?
Yes Larry. The proximal interphalangeal joint where the surgery is performed really has no function during running except stabilization. Depending upon the surgeon and device used or not used, sutures should be remove in 2 weeks and light jogging can ensue as early as three weeks.
Moore Foot and Ankle Specialists - Dr Robert J Moore III & Dr Eric Blanson will the PIPJ of the second toe eventually fuse?
Yes. And if it does not, there will be a small, scar tissue gap that would allow little to no movement anyway.
If a patient is a runner, can they continue to run after having this type of surgery?
Larry Coulter I seriously doubt it. Their ability to extend the second toe is severely compromised while that guys sprinting days are long over. He must really really really want a straight second toe in order to have his furthest most joint cut out and replaced with a piece of ceramic or??

There is a tourniquet on the ankle that is released after the procedure. Minimal to no blood loss.
I noticed you used a bone cutter too on the proximal phalanx. I'm with ya on that...don't see the need to ram a power saw in there.
Nice Job .
