Margaret Dabbs London Bunion Support Left Side

Product Description:

• A bunion is a deformity of the bone at the base of the big toe, causing a deviation of the big toe and a bony lump to appear on the outside of the foot.It can be caused by a number of factors, including ill-fitting footwear, overly flexible joints, or a family history of the condition. It can cause discomfort, swelling and pain around the joint which can get worse if left untreated.
• The Margaret Dabbs London Bunion Support helps to alleviate the pressure on the big toe joint by supporting the big toe and encouraging re-alignment of the joint and helping to slow the development of the bunion.
• When worn periodically, discomfort is reduced and confidence restored.

How to use:

• Place reinforced splint on side of foot and big toe directly over the short strap. Fold the short strap over the big toe in the direction of the remaining toes and pull velcro strap around the big toe and onto the aid
• Wrap the remaining part of the aid across the foot and attach the velcro straps
• Ensure all straps are secure. Adapt the aid into position as required
• The support can be worn on a bare foot at times of relaxation to encourage the big toe joint to realign to the correct position. It should be worn initially for shorter periods of time, and the period of use built up; it should be fixed to remain comfortable and as the toe gets used to the support it can be tightened further to encourage joint mobility and normal alignment.

Results:

• Helps to alleviate pressure on the big toe joint by supporting the big toe
