Cushioning Bunions with Stick on Foot Callus Pads

Bunions can be successful cushioned with a simple stick on U-shaped callus foot pad. A bunion is a boney bump on the inside of the big toe joint ( first MPJ ). This occurs when the first metatarsal moves medial and the big toe drifts the opposite direction. The only way to correct this deformity is to have surgery to realign the bones. The bunion bump can become painful usually from rubbing against the inside of a shoe. It is difficult to find a proper shaped bunion cushion.



Our u shaped callus foot pad is the ideal shape to cushion the boney bunion bump. They are open on one end so they are adjustable to contour to the shape of the bunion. The medical grade skin adhesive on them will allow the bunion cushion foot pad to stay in place firmly. Atlas Biomechanics manufactures our u shaped (half moon) callus stick on foot pads from either medical grade felt or foam. We also produce them in 1/8" or 1/4" thickness.
