Gel Bunion Pad/Guard with Toe Spacer

If you have diabetes, neuropathy(numbness tingling of feet) or poor circulation, consult your healthcare provider before using. If numbness, discoloration, irritation or additional toe pain occurs, discontinue use immediately. Remove at bedtime and for at least 4 hours per day. Do not use over broken or inflamed skin or a wound. If symptoms persist, visit a foot specialist. Keep out of reach of pets and children.

Start with a clean, dry foot. Slide the gel spacer between the big toe and second toe so the gel pad rests over the bunion area. Adjust as needed for comfort before putting on socks or shoes.

• Q: How long will the product last?
• A: Several months up to a year. Being careful not to overstretch the loop while applying the product can prolong it's lifespan.
• Q: Will this product correct my bunion?
• A: No. Bunions are a progressive boney deformity and joint malalignment caused from inherited poor biomechanics. Therefore, in almost all cases, the only way to fix this is with a surgery. The spacer however will gently realign a flexible big toe joint and make the bump of the bunion less prominent while using the product. This can decrease pressure and pain at the bump of the bunion in addition to the gel shield cushioning the bump.
• Q:Why choose the gel bunion pad/ guard with toe spacer over the regular gel bunion guard / pad?
• A: If the big toe is leaning toward or against the 2nd toe and can be manipulated to a straight position then the bunion guard with spacer is the better choice.

Hand wash with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before reuse. If gel becomes tacky, lightly dust with talcum or cornstarch powder.
