Morton's toe

Back to: Foot Problems & Conditions

Morton's toe is a common foot condition apparent in many people, where the second toe is longer than the big toe (hallux). This can lead to extra pressure being exerted onto the ball of the foot, especially underneath the second toe (second metatarsal head), resulting in a similar pain found with such conditions such as Metatarsalgia.

Another problem associated with Morton's toe are the calluses that form on the bottom of the foot below the second toe.

MORTONS TOE

Prevention & treatment

It is important to purchase an appropriate pair of shoes if you have Morton's toe. Make sure that the shoes are large enough to accommodate the larger 2nd toe and have a wide toe and low heel to prevent any extra pressure being exerted onto the sensitive area.

If suffering from pain related to Morton's Toe seek advice from a Podiatrist/Chiropodist, who may recommend an orthotic insole to place in the shoe. This will let the foot function more normally and redistribute pressure from the ball of the foot.

  • Supportive, spacious shoes with a low heel

  • Good pressure relieving orthotic insoles
