How to use a corn toe pad cushion

Hammertoe corn pads for crooked toes are small inexpensive foot pad cushions that prevent and treat hammertoe corns from forming and cushions the area. Toe corns are a build up of skin on the knuckles of toes on the foot. They are due to shoe pressure rubbing on the knuckle of crooked toes. The shoe friction causes the skin to grow more skin to protect itself. The more the friction and pressure the deeper and larger the toe corn

A hammertoe corn pad cushion can off load the pressure and friction causing the build up.


How to use a corn toe pad cushion


-Identify the area on the toe were the corn has formed.

-Make sure the foot skin is clean and dry. Oil and moisture will allow the corn not to stick on.

-Place the hole of the corn cushion over the boney area causing the corn.

-Press firmly to the skin.

-Roll a sock or stocking over the foot to help hold the toe corn in place.

-End of the day remove the corn pad by gently peeling off the pad.
