Anyone undergo hammer toe/claw toe surgery associated with neuropathy?

You will have pins sticking out from your toes. I would suggest wearing a long soled thong in order to keep from bumping them on things. You will need to turn them every couple of days in order to keep flesh from attachng to them. Also sleep with your feet hanging over the bed if you can. Shower with bags over your feet and taped to keep water out. Good luck. No long term issues for me.

I have PN, and got hammertoes on one foot as I aged (they didn’t say the PN caused my hammertoes because it’s not uncommon for many older folks who don’t have PN). Recovery may be more challenging if, like me, you already have balance and walking issues. My surgeon had my foot nicely wrapped so I couldn’t touch the pins and he gave me an easy strap-on boot that kept me from hitting them. Follow whatever instructions he gives you for care. I’m 2 years out from surgery and am pleased with the results. My shoes fit better which allows me to have a better step. I would do it again if my other foot would ever need it (I was 59 when I had the surgery).

Hammertoes are mainly caused from wearing ill-fitting shoes. Mine were mostly work shoes that were sized properly. May have been due to shoes that were worn long in the past. Was hard and painful on the feet to walk back then.

I had hammer toe surgery on both feet over the last 6 years and that's the least of my problems. It took about 12 weeks of recovery on each foot having Hardware in my feet now I have to take antibiotics before going in for a dental cleaning. The bone fusions on the great toes on both feet did not go so well especially on the right foot which is my affected side because of the drop foot but I have neuropathy in both feet due to three spine surgeries. You're going to be fine if you have a good surgeon.

One foot I had pin sticking out and the other foot I did not have that done so I don't know why he did one foot like that and not the other but I didn't have a problem with either put because of the pins versus not having any pins.

I have to strongly agree! When I think of the pointy uncomfortable high heels of my lost career past, I’m surprised all I got was hammertoes!

I have this as well
