Silicone Metatarsal Pads ideal for the treatment of metatarsalgia. The term "Metatarsalgia" refers to pain in the lower and front part of the foot (the area of the metatarsal heads), usually under the heads of the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th metatarsal. It is characterized by deep, steady pain with or without burning sensation.

This is a condition in which one of the metatarsals of the foot has experienced "fall," pressing harder on the bottom surface of the foot. Factors such as the degree of standing, body weight, and shoe type influence the onset of symptoms.

It affects women more due to the use of high heels or narrow footwear. In men, it may conceal more serious predisposing factors such as severe flatfoot or valgus flatfoot.

Advantages and features:

• Silicone pads with a ring for the fall of the metatarsals.
• They fit inside the shoe and can be washed.
• The use of them can relieve pain, even in the acute initial phase.
• The treatment of metatarsalgia is mainly conservative.
• Initial treatment: rest, unloading, cold therapy, and compression wrapping of the foot.

Indications:

• Fall of metatarsal heads
• Metatarsalgia
• Rheumatism of the metatarsals
• Pain in the metatarsals
