When your big toe is angled towards the second toe, the deformity is called a bunion (hallux valgus). This causes a bump on the side at the base of the big toe. In addition, there is often thickening of the skin and tissues next to the affected joint. The thickened skin and tissues may become inflamed, swollen and painful.
The Bunion Corrector Splint helps the big toe alignment. The embedded aluminum bar can provide moderate support while you are wearing it. Gently realigns the toe to slow the formation and progression of bunions, while providing pain-relieving support.
If you are suffering from hallux valgus, the sensitive skin is very vulnerable to pressure and friction from shoes, sometimes it may be extremely painful. But actually, you can take full advantage of the night time to straighten your big toe and alleviate your feet pain.
The Bunion Corrector Brace also can be worn postoperatively. The soft and lightweight material makes it comfortable enough to wear it on the floor, you can adjust the tightness as you need.
1. Start wearing them for 5-15 min and increase by 5 min per session until you can comfortably wear them for 30 min or more. Allow your big toe enough time to stretch. You can adjust the tightness as you need.
2. If you have a foot condition and the pain gets worse, please stop using them and ask your doctor for more specific advice.
3. Note: If your feet problem is pretty serious, please choose the appropriate method according to your doctor's opinions.
