A soft gel spacer that sits between your big toe and second toe, held in place by a loop. It eases the pressure and rubbing that make a bunion uncomfortable in shoes.What you get Gel spacer between the first and second toes to reduce toe-on-toe pressure and rubbing. Loop design that stays in place while you walk. Slim profile that fits in most shoes. Medical-grade, latex-free gel, washable and reusable. Two per pack for both feet. How to use Start with clean, dry toes. Slip the loop over your second toe so the gel sits against the big toe. Wear for short periods at first and increase as comfortable. Hand-wash with mild soap, rinse, and air-dry before the next wear. Podiatrist's noteI'm often asked whether separators fix bunions. They don't change the bone alignment, but they can make a bunion much more comfortable day to day, especially paired with a wider toe box. If the joint is swelling, stiffening, or the second toe is starting to cross over, that's worth an exam.
