Steins Hammer Toe Crest Cushion and Buttress Pad - Left, Medium

For the last 5 or 6 years I've had a painful situation where the toe next to my little toe curls under the middle toe and I've improvised prosthetics using foam toe separators and paper sports tape trying to get the toe to behave. I saw two different podiatrists and told them that if amputation of the last segment was the only solution I'd be ok with that and they recommended using toe separators like girls use when they paint their nails 'til they're dry. That worked as long as the separators were in place but I can't wear shoes with those in place. As a last resort I recently saw a different podiatrist who said that amputation was not warranted and he installed a unit very similar to this and I got immediate results and have been very happy with this simple fix. Here's some advice: 1. These are designed for 'custom fit' by adjusting the lace that goes over the top of the toe but with arthritis in my back, kness and hips it's very painful to adjust these each time so once I get the right spacing I commit it by taping down with sports paper tape. I've been using the same one for several weeks and just wipe it down with a moist cloth each night. 2. I tried to economize by buying the all-in-one-piece silicone ones but within minutes the strap was cutting off circulation in my toe...no way to adjust so just a waste of money. I'll keep buying these because they work so well.

I have a hammer toe that developed a diabetic ulcer on the end. It wouldn't heal because the hammer toe kept irritating it and breaking it open as I walked. My podiatrist recommended this product. This did the trick and the ulcer closed up in less than 2 weeks. I ordered one size smaller because my toes are short. Fits perfectly. The strap made my middle toe turn red until I stopped pulling it so tight. It stays in position inside my sock and shoe no problem. I've been alternating between two of them for over three weeks and they are both holding up fine. The felt surface is just starting to show some wear from walking on them.

The concept is great, it WOULD do the job for a hammertoe, but I found these to be too obtrusive and not comfortable/natural- the fit was either too tight or too loose with the band. I preferred silicone ones over these, will not purchase again

The does help with the middle toe that curls under the second toe

I found them uncomfortable

Absolutely love this! I’ve tried to go with out this and it is a nightmare. If I don’t use this I get severe knee and hip pain that is so bad it causes me to cry. It is very durable. I don’t feel it is on.

I am disappointed with the litter scoops. The spacing between the wire allows the feces to fall back into the litter making it impossible to thoroughly clean the litter.

Quality product
