What are bunions (hallux valgus)? This is a deformity of the front part of the foot, which results from the deviation of the big toe (hallux) towards the other toes. This shift causes a characteristic lateral protrusion at the head of the first metatarsal. The angle between the metatarsal of the big toe and the second toe gradually changes and the base of the big toe shifts outward. Over the years, deformities of the other toes and severe foot pain (metatarsalgia) may occur. The prevalence of hallux valgus in women is 40%. In 75% of cases, hallux valgus affects both feet.

Product description Suitable for anyone wishing to relieve the pain caused by bunions, improving the natural position of the toes without surgical intervention. Bunions develop when feet are repeatedly squeezed into narrow, pointed shoes. The big toe is pushed towards the other toes, causing the base to protrude or tilt outward. People who perform activities that involve prolonged standing or walking are prone to developing bunions. Ballet dancers, whose feet are subjected to severe repetitive stress, are also at risk. Women may develop bunions and other foot problems during pregnancy, as hormonal changes weaken the ligaments and flatten the feet. Bunions are also associated with arthritis, which damages the cartilage in the joints.

• Restores natural alignment: Provides protection and support. The bunion corrector contains an internal aluminum rod that applies gentle, steady pressure to the big toe to align it and slow the progression or formation of bunions.
• Reduces pain: Relieves discomfort and pain caused by bunions. Also reduces pressure and inflammation for complete pain relief.
• Anti-slip design: The strap around the ankle prevents slipping during sleep.
• Flexible size: Adjustable for a comfortable fit. Fits all.
• Easy to clean and reusable.

Instructions for use: For best results, it is recommended to use for 2-4 months or longer. It is recommended to use the corrector mainly at night and during periods of relaxation (when you do not need to wear shoes).

Special warnings: This product is an auxiliary device and cannot replace medical treatment. Suitable for patients with mild to moderate bunions and for the prevention of postoperative recurrence. If there is a serious problem, it is recommended to consult an orthopedic doctor before using any corrective device. It is recommended that children under 14 years old consult an orthopedic doctor before using any corrective device.
