NatraCure Gel Hammer Toe Crest Pads (Left/Right) - 1 Pair – (Toe Straightening Cushion, For Mallet Toes and Overlapping Toes) - 3035-M CAT

I have the starting of a hammer toe & also experience numbness, burning, extreme sensitivity in my other toes from nerves being compressed by scar tissue from 2 lumbar surgeries. The first night after using these pads, I noticed that my feet & toes weren't painful after a full day of walking & standing. I do take pain medication, but it doesn't relieve the pain in my toes & feet. I just couldn't believe the relief that I was experiencing in my toes. I also noticed that my balance was so much better. After my back surgeries, I tend to place more pressure on the front of my foot because of nerve damage. These pads help my poor toes take the extra weight by cushioning & supporting them. I slept so well after a long day of gardening and walking four dogs, preparing dinner & doing some light housework. Usually by dinner time, my feet hurt so badly, I have to order in b/c my feet are too painful to stand on. I am over the moon with how wonderful these little pads have improved my painful feet. I slept a full 8 hours last night. Thank you so much. BTW, my hammer toe is next to my big toe. I put the loop over the hammer toe, then place a gel toe spacer on the 2nd toe to align my big toe & take pressure off my 2nd toe. It worked perfectly. So far, today is another day of gardening with no excruciating toe pain. Wishing everyone a wonderful day & relief from chronic pain.

Right foot gel is working great. Left foot one hurts my toes. Disappointed but luckily I only need the right foot one.

I found the NatraCure Gel Hammer Toe Crest Pads to be east to fit, stay in place all day and keep toes in position and relieve pain. I can completely recommend this item.

My husband is using this toe crest to help with his claw or mallot toes. All of his small toes on both feet curl under so much thst they are beginning to form calluses on the end of some of the toes. His podiatrist recommended using a toe Crest to give some lift to the toes. The Dr had sold him one for $10 that is similar. But on that one the toe loop stretched out after a few times of using it. He being diabetic has to be careful not to develop any sores on the toes. These crests are working perfectly for him, even after wearing over a week. These stay in place, lift his toes and are comfortable to wear. They are simple to wash. He recommends them highly.

This felt comfortable when I put it on and I wanted this to work for my hammertoe, but the loop that goes around the toe is too thin - it should be wider, because it became like a string tied around my toe, and after several hours, the toe was swollen around it. I have skinny toes, so it was not that it was too tight. I returned it to Amazon for a full refund.

These work so great to minimize the discomfort and pain caused by hammer toes. I have dealt with the pain for years thinking there was nothing I could do about it. Then I found these great little "toe slugs" (that's what I call them.) Every other night I wash them off with soapy water, let them air dry for a bit, then toss them into a zip lock bag of baby powder so they dont get that weird sticky texture that can happen after washing them. If I'm too tired to wash them I just toss them in the baby powder bag for the night. I forgot to wear them recently when I walked about 10 miles one day. I didn't realize how much they were helping until I forgot them. Do yourself a favor and buy two sets of these right away !

This product proved indispensable in dealing with an annoying number two hammertoe. The joints are mobile, but the tendons and capsule contracted. The toe can be pulled straight, but when released, contracts again. This interferes with the normal ambulation pattern which requires 5 straight toes during one phase of gait to ripple weight bearing from the little to the great toe. Since the dorsal knuckle of the proximal IP joint is sensitive, I used a zentoe to cushion that area, and then applied the NatraCure all gel universal toe crest to apply downward pressure on the joint to "straighten" the digit. The combination worked to give me back normal gait. I am now able to breeze through a full day of gardening and vigorous aerobic exercise such as biking or power walking. The toe crest seems to be holding up well to daily vigorous use.

so comfortable when i slept at night and inside some shoes but both broke way too prematurely .

Die Funktion der Zehenpads an sich ist gut - allerdings begünstigt die Schlaufe einen verschwitzten Zeh ... ... kann unter Umständen zu Fußpilz führen

This was my second attempt at buying Toe Crest Pads. Previous Pads bought from Amazon were uncomfortable (too hard) and the toe ring was too tight, causing constriction marks on my toes. These 'NatraCure Gel Toe Crest Pads' are identical to those originally obtained after consulting the hospital podiatrist and are 100% comfortable. The toe ring is supple and does not constrict my toe, and the other toes are well cushioned. They can be gently washed and my original pair lasted six months, being worn every day. Covid-19 has meant that I cannot source them locally at the moment. However, buying them through Amazon has solved the problem.

The gel-like wedge fits perfectly under my four hammer toes. It stays in place with the loop over my middle toe. The pair can be worn on either foot.

Didn't work. Waste of money for me. Wouldn't recommend.

Is NOT effective for my Hammer Toe. Did not hold my toe in corrective position, gel toe loop is VERY loose, does not hold toe securely against bottom/floor side of toes crest. Is also a trip hazard around the house, the gel catches/sticks on the floor. I did try wearing a sock so the unit did not catch on the floor, but my toe continues curling into its painful hammer position even with a looser fitting sock - This product is useless for me. Returns are next to impossible so Amazon wins. I'm very discouraged.
