YOGAMEDIC Toe Spacers & Separators for Overlapping Digits - 4-Piece Improved BPA-Free Silicone Bunion Relief - One-Size Toe Separators for Women & Men

WOW! I have tried almost every product out there for BUNIONS! I put these on yesterday UNDER my compression socks, and got RELIEF for the pain in both feet. My bunions which were aching STOPPED hurting. I THINK when they hurt like they were they may be in a growing stage. So after massaging the foot, I put the corrector on and compression socks on top, and the pain on the actual bunion STOPPED! I woke up this morning pain FREE!I am so excited! Now at first I tried them (both feet) with the little hard aligner, and after ten minutes, my feet hurt. I reread the instruction and saw that I needed to get used to them first. I had not thought anything about getting used to them because I had been wearing a different kind. I took the optional hard corrector part out of the hole between my big toe and the next toe, put the compression socks back on and noticed IMMEDIATE relief!!!Now my bunions have been growing for over ten years. I think when they ache, it means they are actively growing.The only option I seem to have is surgery, which my sister had. She went through a healing process, which lasted a year, and she finally (after the said year) stated she could NOT recommend surgery.Since I also have diabetic neuropathy, I will pass on surgery also. My feet do not heal as fast as they should.In the meantime, I'm going to put these on an auto prescription to be sure I never run out.These fit well enough (stability) under socks, and I know they are performing well right now. As far as ease of cleaning and durability, I will have to report back later.Now, if I could just find shoes and slippers with a wide enough toe box to accommodate my bunions with these silicon correctors! I know they must exist, but today I must return two pairs of slippers that were not wide enough toe boxes, as they said they were. I will update you for their durability later. Ten stars so far!

Helps my foot/toe with or without a shoe

They seem to work. My issue with them is that they irritate the skin where the silicone material passes over the top of the base of the big toe. I don't know if I wore them for longer than I should have at a time, but I'm taking a break while that area of skin sheds and the redness goes away.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:The Silicone Correctors didn’t last a month. Already broke. The other brace is sturdier. And work very well.Pain relief:Very good till silicone broke. The other brace works very well.

I guess it works if your big toe is skinny or long enough. These were not made for thicker toes. They feel like they're cutting off the circulation but only after wearing them for a while. They don't stay in place and have an odd fit. They slide backwards with use, causing them to cut into the base of the big toe. For me anyway. The quality is good but the idea needs work. I think the Research and Development folks need to take this back to the drawing room and improve the basic design before marketing it again. Because there's just not enough value for the money with this one. I had to go with a competitor's product to get actual pain relief. So two stars for quality of material used and protection because they are soft and they cover bunions. But that’s all.

It worked like magic for my feet.I do a lot of standing and walk 30 minutes at least, 3 days a week.I wore these day and night for a whole week and the difference was magical. What a relief!Thank you.Perfect fit, thick enough to still slide into regular shoes, easy to use and worth the money I paid! They stretch well, too. Highly recommended.

Easy to put on and take off. I did the slow 'get used to', bumping up 30 minutes a day for 5 days, then went to nearly full time wearing. I have had no discomfort and find I am having less than an issue with the toe next to it. I am really happy with this product so far.

Good quality, great to use with shoe's but annoying to sleep with.Easy to wash and reusable.
