This metatarsal pad with ring for the second toe is a band that belongs to Prim's podiatric comfort line called COMFORSIL. It is made of pure silicone, seamless to avoid chafing and totally hypoallergenic.
Its function is to facilitate the cushioning of the foot, reducing pressure in the areas where the greatest amount of weight falls. In this way, it helps to prevent and alleviate pain in the sole of the foot.
This is achieved thanks to the orthopaedic effect of the pad, which consists of slightly raising the retrocapital part of the foot, located exactly behind the metatarsal area. This is how it adapts to the sole of the foot to absorb a large part of the impact and reduce discomfort.
This is why the use of these orthopaedic devices is ideal for reducing the load generated by the heeled shoe. In this way, conditions that initially appear in the soft tissues and nerves, but later go to the bones, are avoided. It also prevents pain in the knees and ankles and even in the neck, as the joint discomfort spreads to the whole body. Likewise, the effect of these insoles will bring more rest to the joints that have been suffering from this pressure up to now.
For those who have to walk all the time, these gel pads will help to reduce the burning sensation and calluses. To this end, the silicone insert reduces the friction between the foot and the shoe, thanks to its flexibility.
In addition, they are non-slip because they have cavities that allow them to be fixed to the shoe without slipping, which helps to maintain the comfort and proper posture of the foot. Silicone is also very resistant, a characteristic that guarantees a highly durable piece that does not crack easily.
