Blair,
Usually, a cartridge with an exaggerated elliptical stylus point (be that hyperelliptical, microridge, stereohedron, Shibata, Ellipsiod, van den Hul or the like) and a little heavier vertical tracking force (VTF) will eradicate any inner groove distortion.
Elliptical tips, especially cheaper bonded ones, with too-light VTF, will too often expose this irritating condition.
That is, assuming all the other settings are correct for your tonearm.
Another way of largely ridding yourself of it is to go to a longer arm. Each additional inch past a 9" arm provides something like 7% better tracking. So a 10% arm, theoretically, tracks 7% better across the entire record surface...thus subduing tracking distortion (which includes the most obvious many of us hear - that of the end of record).
Of course, the last recommendation isn't as feasible for many as changing out the stylus shape and applying a bit more VTF.
