Digital Pad Small/Medium, Washable, reuasble, Mineral Oil-Based Gel pad, 12/polybag # 10065

I bought these for a friend who was having terrible corn and bunion problems. My podiatrist ordered these for me for treatment of calluses, corns, blisters following foot surgery. They are soft, stretchy elastic on one side and rubbery, soft, silicone padding on the other. These amazing little doodads provide almost immediate pain relief and comfort! These pads are small, washable, reusable, but can get easily lost. They are like a tiny Barbie tube top that just slides over the affected toe with the padded silicone side nestled against the offending spot. The separation from the other toe eliminates the friction between the two toes alleviating the pain. There is an almost immediate sigh of relief making the old commercial saying, "Oh, what a relief it is" quite appropriate. I can recommend these without reservation. Top 3 Likes: -Noninvasive, non-chemical pain relief -Pain relief is almost immediate -Washable, reusable, and small making them convenient for any place any time Top 3 Dislikes: -Can get lost very easily -Be mindful if they come in sizes -Can be stained by shoe leather

Good item just a bit expensive but, if you need them you need them. They help the corns/calluses be less panful.

I've tried many of the products available on Amazon and a few from local stores trying to find a way to be able to walk more than half a mile without foot pain from Morton's Neuroma. Some products just haven't been comfortable. Others have been ok for moving around the house in socks or loose bedroom slippers, but until now none have been comfortable to wear with hiking shoes or sneakers, often because the shoes become too tight with the addition of the product. These pads do the trick. Each pad is very comfortable and not so thick that my toes are freakishly splayed. They create enough space between toes to keep the nerves from getting pinched and since the pads are singles (each pad goes on one toe or finger) you get to choose how much padding you want. Unless you are wearing shoes with narrow toe boxes (which is a real no-no for people with toe/foot pad issues), you should have no problem wearing them comfortably with shoes. Note that I bought the large/extra large pads and the small/medium pads to cover all my toes needs. They may seem pricey, but I've spent a lot more on products that aren't solving my main problem--making it possible to walk out in the world in regular shoes without pain or discomfort

These toe sleeves have been a lifesaver for me. Last fall, I went to a podiatrist regarding pain I was having between my last two toes on my right foot. After doing an x-ray, he informed me that the bones of those two toes were rubbing against one another and it would require surgery to shorten the bone in one of the toes. At the time, I was facing the prospect of a knee replacement, so I told him that had to be my primary concern at the time. He gave me a toe sleeve (and charged me a ridiculous amount for it) and that helped with the pain, so I came on Amazon to find a more reasonable option than paying him highway robbery for a supply of toe sleeves. I actually like these BETTER than the one he gave me, because the silicone pad on these is an oval shape whereas the one he gave me was square and much more bulky. These are still bulky to a certain degree, but once you learn how to position them, it's not so bad. I was already wearing wide-width shoes, so the extra bulk of the toe sleeve did not cause a problem. If you wear very narrow shoes, this may not be the case. I've now been wearing these pads for about 8 months and, for the most part, they have been a successful option to surgery. Each pad can be worn a number of times...how many times depends on how gently or roughly you treat them. I think I'm on only my second bag of these pads in 8 months, and still have quite a few never-worn ones in my drawer, so mine have gotten quite a lot of wear! None of the silicone pads on mine have worn out, but the fabric sleeve can ravel or stretch out if not handled with care. If I could change anything, it would be for the silicone pad to be JUST a touch thinner so it wasn't so bulky. I've included pictures of my foot with the sock on and sock off, both while wearing the toe sleeve.

Fantastic product!

My Dr recommended these after my surgery, but they didn't cover my toe or stay on. Even though they were small they were still too big to work. I don't blame the product, since they may work for others, and they were expensive.

Thank you perfect for what he needs

My podiatrist recommended this product. I have one toe crossing over another. I don't want to do surgery yet to correct this issue. The silicone pad prevents the pain. I have a callus on the underside of the toe that crosses over the other. This item allows a cream to be placed next to the callus, helping to remove the callus. Very comfortable to wear. Glad that I bought this.
