Forefoot Pad with Metatarsal Dome, Pair

These ultrathin silicone metatarsal pads help ease the discomfort of Morton's neuroma by evenly distributing the force you place on your forefoot when you walk. The pad design secures a dome under the foot in just the right place to support your foot's metatarsal arch (that indentation in the center of your forefoot). The antibacterial, antifungal silicone resists foot odor and helps prevent infections. We highly recommend these for individuals who do a lot of walking or who stand for prolonged periods of time. Order by men's/women's shoe size above.

Silicone Toe Crest Cushion, Each

Wear with any shoe all day long - these cushions refuse to flatten out. The silicone toe crest nestles under the "hammer" or bent toes, relieving pressure and friction while cushioning even the most sensitive toes. Orderless, washable and reusable. Specify left or right. Order by men's/women's shoe size.Caution: Not recommended for those with diabetes.

Hammertoe Straightener

Stop enduring the pain of hammertoes and claws toes with the help of this simple straightener. The strong elastic heel wraps around the back of the foot then goes under the foot to the toes. A padded hook closure pulls down and straightens the malfunctioning toes. Regular use helps to strengthen the forefoot muscle and alleviate calluses and other painful side effects of hammertoes. Caution: Not recommended for those with diabetes.

FootSmart® Men's/Women's Arch Support Casual Crew Socks, Pair

My Experience

When I found FootSmart, I was looking for a solution to my heel pain problem. I would awake in the morning with soreness in my heels and tightness in my legs so severe that I could hardly walk. I learned at their site that my condition was most likely plantar fasciitis. I bought some of their passive night splints and they worked wonders. For those of you who have painful conditions and are unaware of the reason or cause, I've listed a few descriptions of conditions below. I am by no means an expert, so take this information and use it to do your own research and definitely consult with a doctor regarding any condition and treatment. FootSmart has many products to treat all of the conditions listed here.

Plantar Fasciitis
The plantar fascia is a thin layer of tissue that helps support the arch of the foot. Plantar fasciitis occurs when this tissue becomes inflammed. This may cause the heel to hurt, feel hot, or swell. This condition is usually worst upon first getting out of bed.

There are a number of causes for plantar fasciitis and can occur in combination with each other to amplify the problem. They include tightness of the foot and calf, improper exercise or athletic training, improperly fitting shoes, stress on the arch, or overwork of the affected area.

Treatments for plantar fasciitis include alternating icing and heating of the affected area after workouts, proper shoe fitting, stretching exercises, and for pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication is often prescribed. Night splints that hold the foot in place and keep the plantar fascia stretched are also a wonderful remedy that worked well for me. As a very last resort, surgery can also be performed, but it is recommended that all other options be exhausted first.

Morton's Neuroma
The Morton's neuroma condition is caused by an enlarged nerve usually between the 3rd and 4th toes. The nerve may become enlarged for many reasons, but quite often it is because of compression or ill-fitting shoes. Morton's neuroma may cause a sharp, burning pain in the ball of your foot and your toes may also feel numb or have a stinging or burning sensation. Morton's neuroma is also referred to as plantar neuroma or intermetatarsal neuroma. Common treatments for Morton's neuroma include getting properly fitting shoes, using arch supports, and resting your feet. Anti-inflammatory medication may also be prescribed.

Metatarsalgia
Metatarsalgia is the general term used to describe foot pain in the ball of the foot, near the metatarsal region. It can affect the bones and joints. There are many causes of metatarsalgia, but one of the most common is prolonged pressure to the metatarsal heads brought about by improperly fitting or restrictive shoes. Common treatments for metatarsalgia include getting properly fitting shoes, orthotics, and metatarsal cushions or insoles.

Hammer toes
Hammer toes is a condition in which the ligaments and tendons in the foot have tightened and caused the joints in the toe to curl downward. Some hammer toes are still flexible and can be moved, while some are inflexible and cannot be moved. These inflexible or rigid hammer toes can be extremely painful and can lead to further foot problems such as corns or callouses. Causes for hammer toes may be muscle imbalances or arthritis. Common treatments include orthotics, toe splints, and gel toe caps.
