The Visco-GEL Hammer ToeCrutch Toe Cushion helps involve hammer and claw toes in gait for improved biomechanics, and its gentle support makes shoes comfortable and walking easier. This unique cushion is contoured to support the sulcus, elevate the toe tip, and relieve distal pressure while its soft, extra-wide, Visco-GEL toe loop protects, hydrates, and softens typical "PIP" toe-top corns and keeps the cushion in place. Caring for this cushion is easy; simply hand wash and air dry it completely, and if the gel becomes tacky, sprinkle it with talcum powder. Warnings: If you have diabetes or poor circulation, consult your physician before use; do not place this cushion on open wounds; if numbness, discoloration, irritation, or additional pain occurs, discontinue use immediately, and if symptoms persist, visit a foot specialist
