Flexor Tendon Resection, Uxbridge ON

Flexor tendon resection is a minor surgical procedure used to relieve pressure and correct certain toe deformities, such as flexible hammertoes. By carefully releasing part of the tendon that causes the toe to curl, a chiropodist can help improve alignment, reduce discomfort, and prevent rubbing, callus, corns or ulceration. The procedure is typically quick, performed under local anesthesia, and followed by guidance to support proper healing and long-term comfort. Hammertoe care starts with a 40 minute Initial assessment and treatment. During this appointment, conservative and surgical treatments will be explained and a treatment plan will be formulated.
