Night bandage for the big toe. Bandage for toes: indications and features

Bandage for thumb leg is an orthopedic device for the treatment and prevention of hallux valgus. Pathology is characterized by a curvature of the metatarsophalangeal joint of the first toe with the subsequent formation transverse flatfoot and a gradual turn of all fingers outwards. The effectiveness of therapy depends on the severity of the existing curvature of the finger. Wearing a bandage is the optimal therapeutic method for influencing an orthopedic and cosmetic defect.

With valgus, the head of the first metatarsal bone deviates inward relative to the foot, and the phalanx of the finger itself outward (toward the little finger). To restore the correct position, the use of a foot brace is recommended. Wearing it preserves finger mobility, elasticity of cartilage and ligaments, microcirculation, and prevents muscle atrophy.

Causes of hallux valgus

There are many reasons for the development of foot valgus. The main ones are:

  • genetic predisposition transmitted through the female line;
  • osteoporosis;
  • weakness of the musculoskeletal system;
  • trauma (fractured bones, sprained ligaments);
  • long-term immobilization of the joint in a plaster bandage;
  • joint diseases (arthritis, arthrosis);
  • being on your feet all day, which is associated with the profession;
  • excess weight;
  • wrong shoes with a narrow toe, high heels.

A significant excess of body weight and shoes with heels above 10 cm cause over time, in addition to foot deformity, an X-shaped curvature of the legs, which will be called knee valgus. It develops in both children and adults (more often in old age).

Painless treatments

Due to the lack of specific manifestations, it is almost impossible to detect the disease at an early stage. Therefore, for medical care turn late, with significant deformity and deployed clinical picture. In severe pathology, characteristic of stage 3 or 4, with a displacement of the first finger of more than 30 °, conservative therapy will no longer eliminate organic changes in the tissues of the joint. Valgus deformity at this stage is significantly pronounced and requires surgical treatment.

It is necessary to pay attention to the following symptoms in a timely manner:

  • heaviness or pain in the legs when walking for a long time;
  • pastosity or swelling of the first finger in the evening.

The disease at this stage can be cured or its further development can be stopped. painless methods. The therapy is effective in mild to moderate stages of flat hallux valgus. Its result depends on the discipline of the patient and the exact implementation of the recommendations. To choose the right conservative treatment it is necessary to determine the cause of the development of the deformation and act, if possible, on it, if it is correctable.

Applies complex therapy valgus, it includes:

  1. Therapeutic exercise - exercises that strengthen muscles. With regular performance, the elasticity of the ligaments increases, venous stasis is prevented, and capillary blood flow is normalized.
  2. Weight loss - Reduces pressure on joints and cartilage.
  3. Orthopedic shoes - stops the progression of the bone, subject to constant wear. Soft wide shoes are selected with a hard recess for the first toe.
  4. Orthoses are devices used for therapeutic treatment in the early stages of pathology. When putting on a bandage on a toe early with a deformed foot, there is an increased chance of doing without surgical intervention.
  5. Anti-inflammatory medications- NSAIDs, GCS - act symptomatically (remove swelling and pain).
  6. Physiotherapeutic methods (shock wave therapy, treatment in a magnetic field, massage).

For a complete recovery correct form feet folk ways treatments are ineffective. They have a local effect: baths, lotions, ointments reduce inflammation and discomfort when walking. As an independent therapeutic method for such a pathology is not used.

Orthopedic bandage for the thumb

When using a bandage adverse reactions not described. It is shown even to children. According to the results of many years of observations, right choice and regular use of the orthosis gives a positive trend of 100%. The bandage simultaneously solves several problems:

  • reduces pain due to the even distribution of weight and other stress on the joints;
  • reduces the inflammatory response;
  • prevents the development of bursitis, calluses, corns, circulatory disorders, loss of elasticity of muscles and ligaments.

Fixators give the deviated finger the correct anatomical direction, significantly reduce the size of the existing bump. With a slight angle of deviation, the valgus curvature will gradually disappear. In severe, advanced stages, the protruding bone may decrease, and the condition of the joint will also improve: the intensity of pain and inflammation, if any, will decrease.

Wearing an orthosis has a number of tangible benefits:

  • lack of irritation or allergic reactions thanks to hypoallergenic materials;
  • easy care - cleaning with wet wipes of the silicone corrector, manual cleaning of the fabric one;
  • high probability of correcting the first signs of flat-valgus deformity with adjustable fixators;
  • affordable price and durability.

Instructions for use

Before proceeding with the treatment of valgus with a bandage, you need to carefully study the instructions that come with the orthosis. It contains detailed rules for the use of the fixative.

Indications

Wearing a bandage is indicated primarily for the curvature of the first toe, followed by restriction of movement in this joint. The probability of restoring the normal shape of the leg depends on the stage of the process and the causes that caused pathological changes.

  • with flat feet;
  • with diseases of the joints;
  • with hammer-shaped fingers (joints of 2-5 fingers are bent upwards).

A bandage that will correct the position of the finger is assigned to rehabilitation period after operation. But in the advanced stage of valgus with a large angle of deviation, its use is ineffective.

How to choose a fixative?

There are many models of fixators that at the initial stages of valgus changes in the foot give a good result. The wrong choice can worsen the condition, resulting in the need for surgery. Therefore, the bandage is prescribed by an orthopedist individually for each patient.

The best companies, according to customer and specialist reviews, include: Aetrex, Variteks, Fresco. The price of a bandage varies greatly: from 250 to 3,000 rubles. This is not the main criterion when choosing, but it must be understood that the price of a bandage device from a foreign manufacturer is never low. Cheap devices have a simple design: if it is not possible to adjust the angle of the finger, then when the effect is obtained, another bandage will be required for further therapy.

The choice depends on the following indicators:

  • degree pathological changes;
  • fixer usage tasks;
  • characteristics of the orthosis;
  • age and physical activity of the patient.

The elderly need a corrector that is comfortable to wear at home, suitable for slippers.

When leading an active lifestyle, when during the day the foot is subjected to high loads, it is required night bandage. Its use in the first stage of the disease for several months will completely cure the valgus.

Children are prescribed devices made of elastic silicone to eliminate leg fatigue and the formation of corns that occur when walking or during other physical efforts.

You can buy a high-quality certified bandage in a pharmacy or orthopedic salon. There is a wide selection in online stores. But in a specialized salon or pharmacy, a specialist will help you choose the right size. There are universal orthopedic devices that fit any foot. But fixators are produced only for one foot (right or left).

Operating principle

With certain risk factors, the phalanx and metatarsal head of the first toe gradually shift in the joint capsule relative to each other, forming an angle. It looks like a bone or bump that sticks out at the base of the first finger. Bursitis develops, accompanied by hyperemia, edema, sharp pain, local hyperthermia. The protruding bone is injured by shoes, calluses and corns are formed.

The use of a fixative is aimed at correcting pathological changes. Principles of its action:

  • abduction of the thumb in a physiological position (it is straightened);
  • keeping it in that direction;
  • giving the correct shape to the foot.

As a result, the deviation of the phalanx is reduced, muscles and ligaments are strengthened. Gradually, the crooked toe is aligned: it is parallel to the axis of the foot. Spasms stop in the muscles, their tone increases, which helps to eliminate foci of inflammation. Treatment is recommended at night, when the body is in a relaxed state during sleep.

At the first stage of the disease, the use of a bandage leads to a complete recovery. With regular use of the corrector, after 3-5 weeks, the result of therapy is noticeable.

Contraindications

In some cases, wearing a retainer is not possible. Restrictions and contraindications to wearing a bandage:

  • severe deformity due to impaired microcirculation of the foot;
  • heavy chronic diseases in the acute phase (gout, rheumatism, polyarthritis);
  • diabetes mellitus with complications (microangiopathy and polyneuropathy of the extremities);
  • severe hypertension;
  • stop varicose veins;
  • skin diseases with localization at the place of wearing the bandage;
  • inflammatory and allergic rashes, wounds;
  • swelling and inflammation of the feet, violation of the integrity of the skin (abrasions or cuts).

How to wear?

A suitable model will be selected by an orthopedist and will explain how to use it correctly. Included with each orthopedic device is an instruction manual with a detailed application algorithm. If there is a belt, it is recommended to tighten it so that pain does not occur. The silicone retainer is put on the finger and pressed tightly with the straightening of the additional petal on the bone.

General rules to follow:

  1. It is contraindicated to walk with a night bandage on the leg.
  2. Models with hinges and other types of rigid orthoses should be used according to the developed step-by-step instructions.
  3. The maximum duration of wearing a daily corrector is 6-10 hours.
  4. The tire should fix the foot throughout the night's sleep.
  5. When using a bandage, observe hygienic measures (wash the device with soapy water and put it on dry on clean feet).

Duration of procedures

The duration of treatment is determined by the degree of hallux valgus, concomitant diseases, age and ranges from several weeks to six months or more. The individual characteristics of the organism, the responsibility of the patient play a role. The duration of use of the bandage depends on the state of the joint at the time when the orthopedic device was first put on. Even if long-term therapy is necessary, the condition improves after the device is used: discomfort and pain symptoms decrease when walking.

What is a bandage?

Criteria by which orthoses for the first toe are classified:

  • preferred time of day when you need to wear a bandage (day, night);
  • materials from which devices are created (plastic, silicone, dense fabric, their combinations);
  • design: articulated (large, small, with a small pillow), simple.

The existing options for orthoses are conventionally divided into 3 types:

  1. Fixing (for daily use) - do not have therapeutic effect, but stop the symptoms in the form of pain in the leg, discomfort when walking. The clamps are simple in design, therefore inexpensive. They have one drawback - unregulated voltage. Therefore, to increase or decrease the impact on the finger, you will need to purchase a new bandage.
  2. Retracting night frame - cures the disease. The result occurs after the first sessions of its application. The design, worn in the evening, should fix the leg until the morning. Bandages with a movable splint and a fastener are used: the foot is comfortable in them, the result appears faster.
  3. Correctors are needed for postoperative rehabilitation. They do not treat changes in the foot, but do not allow them to progress (silicone or plastic ones are used). When worn, they remain invisible: they are comfortable to wear in sandals throughout the day.

Classic corrective

The classic corrective device is an option that effectively restores leg function after radical treatment. The orthosis is also prescribed for prophylactic purposes: it slows down the progression of foot deformity.

The corset reduces pain and fatigue of the legs when walking, allows you to wear your usual shoes without discomfort. Quickly restores foot function after surgery.

Corrective devices are divided according to the material from which they are created:

  • tissue;
  • silicone (gel);
  • plastic;
  • mixed (using fabric and silicone inserts).

Depending on the functions, plastic orthoses are:

  • adjustable;
  • unregulated.

The first of them are the most effective, but they work only at night. Use during the day when walking with them in shoes is impossible due to the bulkiness and complexity of the design. The device is made up of several parts:

  1. A large part is attached to the foot in a comfortable position for the patient.
  2. A smaller part is fixed on the bone of the first finger.
  3. A hinge with a soft fabric pad holds the parts of the bandage together. The pillow increases the strength of the connection between the deformed bone and the bandage. The hinge provides the necessary freedom of movement.

Such a corrector is universal - designed to be worn on both the right and left legs. Its cost is low, the device can be purchased by a person with any income level. Wearing an orthosis is recommended at the first symptoms of deformity. Early application stops further divergence of the bones of the foot and deformity of the articular joint.

Specially designed bandage design aligns the first toe on the foot. This reduces the pain symptom, slows down the progressive development of the deformity. Models for night and day missions are significantly different.

The rigid retainer does not create any force for the muscles of the foot. They put it on, pull it up and fix the strap, controlling the direction of the thumb (it should become parallel to the rest of the fingers). The angle of abduction is increased gradually so as not to cause sharp pain in the metatarsophalangeal joint.

By design, the device is an interdigital rigid strut. It is securely fixed on the finger so that with careless movements in a dream it does not move and does not detach from the leg.

Night bandage provides good therapeutic effect. Its configuration is bulky and complex, which is why wearing with shoes is contraindicated. Since the foot is fixed rigidly, and it is impossible to bend it, walking in such a bandage is excluded even for short distances.

Therefore, when using a bandage with a rigid retainer, it is not recommended:

  • at the first application, set the maximum correction angle;
  • walk or stand with the brace on.

In case of violation of the rules, an exacerbation, progression of deformation may develop. Such a device corrects the deviation of the finger by about 50%.

Night abduction bandage is intended for treatment. The effect appears immediately after its application:

  • pain, swelling, inflammation decrease;
  • gait improves, discomfort when walking disappears;
  • calluses, corns do not appear;
  • increases flexibility and mobility of the toes;
  • improves blood circulation.

The night construction has a therapeutic effect when the muscles are as relaxed as possible - during sleep. The rigid structure of the retainer keeps the bones of the finger in the correct anatomical position. The abducting night bandage holds the finger more securely than the corrector in a direction parallel to the neighboring phalanges.

Day

The daytime corrector takes the first toe inward. This relieves pain and prevents deformation. The day model is different from the night one. It is soft and made of rubber. You need to immediately put the loop on your finger, draw an elastic band under the foot and fasten it around the ankle. Since the elastic band is thin, socks and shoes are comfortably put on it, and do not cause discomfort. The corrector is easily erased.

Night

The bandage is called night due to the rigid fixation of the joint of the first finger, which ensures its complete immobility. It is impossible to walk with a bulky design, so it is put on at night. The tire has the following advantages:

  • maximum orthopedic effect;
  • creation of any angle of finger abduction;
  • high strength due to the absence of moving parts;
  • complete disappearance of pain with constant wear.

Night bandage is prescribed for the treatment of pathology. The result appears from the first weeks of use. Comparative analysis shows that the maximum changes develop at night, so the patient rarely experiences inconvenience during treatment. An example of a night orthosis is Orthofix Hess. It works during the period of maximum muscle relaxation (during sleep). This allows the rigid device to firmly fix the joint in an anatomically correct direction for several hours. At night, the foot is held in a given position more securely than when wearing a day corrector.

The diverting night bandage is a complex structure of several parts. It includes:

  • tire with belt;
  • fastening system.

Proper use - performing sequential actions:

  1. The tire is put on the finger.
  2. A comfortable angle of abduction of the finger is selected, which does not cause sharp pain.
  3. The strap wraps around the foot and is threaded through the bottom hook (or fastened with Velcro).
  4. The bandage is removed in the morning in bed (you can’t stand on it).

The package contains 2 sets - separately for each leg (marked with the letters L and R). The cost of a night bandage is high - it is much more expensive than a day bandage. The main purpose of the application: the complete correction of the deformity at the first stage and the cessation of the further development of the pathology.

An example of a domestically produced design is the F-700 Krate night brace (St. Petersburg). it new development, including several varieties: C-421, F-700, F-701, F-710, F-720. Their use results in:

  • to eliminate the defect at stage 1;
  • to relief of pain in foot deformities of 2–4 degrees.

If you constantly wear only a night bandage, it is difficult to get rid of the deformation. Only its development will slow down, since during the day the thumb is not protected and is subject to significant physical activity without additional protection.

For getting positive result the device must be used every night, without removing it until the morning. The therapy takes many months, the timing depends on the stage of joint change at the time when the patient first put on the bandage.

Rigid retainer

The design of the rigid latch includes:

  • metal or plastic element;
  • fasteners with fasteners for adjusting the degree of fixation.

Unlike the night brace, the rigid brace has a hinge that increases its mobility. With such a device on the leg, it is convenient to move around.

Advantages of a rigid bandage:

  • thanks to various materials there is a uniform distribution of stress on the bone and phalanx of the thumb;
  • individually and without effort, the angle of abduction of the finger changes;
  • with the help of a transverse screed, which fixes the ankle, thumb and little finger well, flat feet are additionally corrected.

For the manufacture of a rigid retainer, the following are used:

  • plastic;
  • gel;
  • silicone.

The most rigid bandage orthosis is made of plastic: it easily removes the thumb, completely complicating its movement. It is used at an extremely severe stage of the disease, when it bothers strong pain, corns, thickening and inflammation of the joint are formed. In other cases, its appointment is unjustified. It is impossible to wear a device with shoes due to its high rigidity: it can be broken when walking.

Sufficiently rigid correctors are made of gel - they fix the thumb well, giving it a straight direction. There is a slight pressure on the joint, the skin is not damaged by pressure or friction. Unlike plastic, they are comfortable to walk in shoes.

The silicone retainer weakly holds the finger, it is used only for prophylactic purposes or at the very first signs of illness. It is quite simple to use: it is put on the thumb, and the elongated silicone tongue is pressed tightly against the bone, protecting it from pressure and friction with shoes.

Soft silicone inserts

Non-discomfort soft silicone interdigital inserts are used with any footwear (open or closed). Depending on the design, they are quite effective and completely useless. In the absence of an emphasis for the interdigital space, the pad protects against friction with shoes, but does not have a therapeutic effect. The best option- a cast corrector with a tight stop for the bone and interdigital space. Silicone orthoses do not stop the process of deformation, but only alleviate the patient's condition.

Soft silicone correctors are convenient for daytime use:

  • keep the thumb in a given physiological position;
  • do not cause discomfort;
  • block pathological movements in the joint itself;
  • perform a protective function, keep the joint warm.

The simultaneous use of a hard bandage at night and a soft silicone corrector during the day sums up their effects and reduces the treatment time.

Observing the rules for using orthoses, as well as performing hygienic care for them, you can get rid of the pathology without resorting to surgical treatment.

Correction should be carried out under the supervision of an orthopedic surgeon. The specialist will additionally appoint drug therapy, massage, other physiotherapeutic procedures. This improves the general condition and shortens the recovery period. During the treatment period, it is necessary to exclude risk factors leading to a further increase in deformity:

  • avoid tight shoes with high heels;
  • get rid of excess weight.

To consolidate the result of night splints, it is necessary to wear daytime silicone correctors that fix the joint when walking in a given position.

Wearing only an elastic day orthosis will not lead to the disappearance of the bone at the base of the thumb, but will only reduce pathological manifestations when walking. After putting on a night brace on the leg, you can not move around in it.

The use of a corrector in the 4th stage of valgus is impractical, taking into account irreversible changes in the joints, as well as the involvement of the phalanges of other fingers in the process. The only one effective method Treatment at this stage is surgery.

The orthopedic mode (time of application and a certain combination of splints) is developed for each patient individually. But the general scheme for prescribing corrective treatment and its principles are the same for everyone. As soon as the condition improves, the time spent in orthoses is reduced. With an exacerbation, the wearing of correctors is prolonged by choosing an individual regimen. Taking into account the severity of flat feet, the accompanying deformation of the joints, various orthopedic devices are used. The success of their treatment depends on the timely treatment to the doctor.

advertising various means to get rid of bumps on the toes, the entire Internet is full of. Along with dubious folk recipes there are also quite adequate proposals - to purchase a bandage for a bone on the big toe. What types of such products can be found on sale? Do they really help get rid of the problem? And what do those who have already tried “finger corsets” on their legs say?

Why do you need a bone fixator

A bump on the finger will not only limit the choice of shoes (you will most likely have to forget about elegant stiletto pumps), but will also “give” a lot of unpleasant, and sometimes painful sensations. The reasons for its appearance are different. This is wearing high-heeled shoes for too long, as well as:

  • flat feet;
  • overweight;
  • lack of calcium during pregnancy;
  • thyroid diseases;
  • diabetes;
  • urinary tract dysfunction;
  • physiological predisposition (for example, excessively wide foot);
  • regular hypothermia of the legs;
  • curvature of the ankle joint;
  • disorders of the nervous system.

It is a mistake to believe that the bump is formed due to salt deposits or that it is some kind of transformation of a large callus. As a result of hallux valgus, the metatarsal bone of the thumb deviates, while the finger itself arches in the opposite direction. It is to return the finger to its original position that the retainer of the bone of the big toe is used.. Also, special orthopedic insoles are often used for this purpose.

Depending on the stage of the disease, the period of wearing a retainer can be from several weeks to two months or even six months.


Manufacturers of orthopedic products are trying to satisfy consumer demand as much as possible, so a variety of models of retainers can be found on sale.

  • The most popular is a silicone or elastic plastic corrector. Such products are very comfortable, as they are hardly noticeable on the leg, which means that they can be used even when wearing open shoes during the day.
  • Separately, it should be said about models with a latch, which is located between the first and second fingers.
  • You can perfectly fit the bandage on your leg if you buy models with adjustable rail and clasp fastening. And even if this option does not look too elegant, but in it the foot will feel as comfortable as possible, and the result will be achieved faster.

One of the classifications is based on the time of use of the bandage - day or night.

Indications and contraindications for use

  • in the presence of transverse flat feet;
  • with hallux valgus;
  • with arthrosis, arthritis, bursitis;
  • with hammer-shaped fingers, when fingers 2-5 are bent at the joints upwards.

In the West, a bone fixator has long been successfully used to prevent hallux valgus.

It was possible to pay online, but I did not do this, so that I could simply not pay the courier if he handed me junk. While waiting for delivery, I watched a bunch of videos to learn how to distinguish a fake. I bought two clamps at once, so it turned out cheaper (a little more than 1300 rubles for each), plus they took delivery.

To my surprise, the courier delivered what I ordered. The latch is made of high-quality plastic and silicone, it is easy to attach, it does not restrict movements.

Bandage on the big toe: the principle of operation


A bandage for a bone on a leg is worth buying because of its truly miraculous properties. He is one of the most effective ways fight against hallux valgus due to rigid fixation of the finger in the correct position, not allowing the bone to deviate.

What is a bandage

It is necessary to choose orthopedic treatment in accordance with the doctor, taking into account the individual characteristics of the problem and the patient's feet. It is necessary to pay attention to the age at which the patient is, and what lifestyle he supports. For an elderly person who leads a sedentary lifestyle, it is better to constantly use either strong plastic retainers. If the patient goes to work every day or does exercise therapy, in order to overcome his problem, a soft silicone fixative or a day-type abduction bandage is needed.

The choice of orthopedic products is now very large, so choosing sometimes is a difficult task. Among the best manufacturers, according to customer reviews, we can mention: Aetrex, Variteks, Fresco. You need to choose not only among the brand, but also among the types of orthopedic products, depending on the task that they face. The market offers a large number of various bandages, which in general can be divided into three types:

  • Classic corrective;
  • Specific outlets;
  • Fasteners.

Having considered each of the types, you can understand which type of treatment is suitable for a particular patient.

Classic corrective

This type of brace is used after surgery to restore the normal function of the foot bone. In addition, they are used to slow down or stop the progress of its deformation.

The device of such a plan consists of several parts:

  • A large detail is fixed on the foot in a position convenient for the patient. Lets air through so that the patient's skin "breathes";
  • A smaller piece, made of a similar material, is attached to the very bone of the foot;
  • Soft padded hinge holds bandages together. The pillow is required to increase the tightness of the connection of the bone with the bandage. The hinge gives the patient the necessary freedom of movement.

Such a corrective bandage has versatility - it can be worn both on the right and on the left foot. The product is inexpensive, any patient can purchase it and use it at night or during the day. As soon as there are suspicions that the bone of the foot is growing, you should immediately apply classic corrective bandages. Using them, the patient will be able to prevent further divergence of the bones and deformation of the articular joints.

Discharging bandage

Move the big toe to the side. This helps in the fight against pain, slows down the development of deformity. Slightly different bandage models are used at night and during the day.

Day

This is an elastic band, putting on which, you need to take into account the following points: first, the thumb is threaded into the loop, then it is carried out slightly under the foot and fixed in the ankle area. The elastic band is strong, but not thick, so socks and boots can be easily worn on top of the retainer. The product is easy to wash.

Night

The bandage used during sleep is more complex. Because of what it resembles a corrective bandage of the classical type. It differs from it in that instead of a large bandage for the foot, an elastic band is used here. It is fixed on a plastic part that looks like a spoon. This spoon follows the line up to the thumb. A similar construct loads the thumb, pushing it away from other fingers. This product does not pain disturb the patient's sleep.

Due to the specific design, the sleep band needs to be purchased separately for each foot. In addition, you should pay attention to the size. It costs more than a daily one, but it is strongly recommended to buy it in order to stop the development of pathology. An attractive idea seems to be to wear only a night bandage so as not to experience discomfort during the daytime. But in this mode, it is difficult to cure the deformation, most likely, you will simply slow down its development. After all, all the loads on the thumb will pass without the protection of the bandage.

Fasteners

Depending on how far the pathology has gone, a bandage is chosen. The fasteners are also made of different materials, which provide different pressure on the bone and thumb:

  • Plastic. These are the most rigid fixators, they do not allow the thumb to move in principle, they take the bone inside the foot. Suitable to treat the most severe stage of the disease. In other cases, their use is not too justified;
  • Gel. Sufficiently rigid clamps - are used to fix the thumb in a physiologically healthy position. At the same time, they do not press too hard, because of them they will not turn red and will not be erased skin covering. In addition, unlike plastic retainers, they can also be worn under;
  • Silicone. Weak-type fixators are suitable as a preventive measure, or if signs of bone disease have just begun to appear. It is easy to use such models - just put it on your thumb, clamp it tightly.

The clamps are quite simple and therefore cheap. They have one minus - you can not adjust the voltage. Therefore, if there is a need to change the pressure, a new bandage will also be required.

How does a bandage help?

The toe brace has many positive effects:

  • Relieves from pain, including during a night's rest;
  • Reduces inflammatory process and swelling;
  • Eliminates redness;
  • Prevents shoes from rubbing the skin and creating blisters;
  • Makes the ligaments elastic, improves the mobility of the foot;
  • Returns normal blood circulation to the big toe;
  • Reduces pressure on the bones and articular joints of the thumb.

During the day, you should not wear the device for more than ten hours. On average, doctors recommend using orthopedic products six hours a day. At the same time, night fixers can be safely worn for the entire time of sleep.
