Hammertoes are crooked toes that are caused by tight shoes, tendon misalignment, trauma and abnormal foot structure. When the toe's joint (knuckle) rubs on the shoe a the skin gets irritated and a corn can form. By padding the joint, one can help prevent the painful corn from occurring.
How to use Hammertoe Corn Stick On Foot Pads
+ apply corn pad to a clean and dry foot
+ position corn pad so that the opening is placed around the affected corn
+ remove the corn pad for at least 5 hours per day or night to allow skin the breathe
+ after use each day, remove corn pad gently by slowly peeling it away from the skin
+ do not place corn pad on open skin.
+ if irritation, discomfort or any problems discontinue use and notify your physician
