  Product Recommendations: Metatarsalgia
Back to: Site Index >> Gels Range >> Product Recommendations

The metatarsal region refers to the ball of the foot. Metatarsalgia is a burning sensation in the ball of the foot that can be either mild or severe, and can sometimes be a recurring problem.

 

Prevention & treatment

Use metatarsal supports to protect the ball of the foot and support the metatarsal and longitudinal arch. Reusable gel pads, adhesive padding and orthotics (special insoles) are usually the best methods of treatment available, as they support the ball of the foot and help to redistribute pressure around the base of the foot.

However orthotics and padding must be used with the appropriate footwear. Shoes must be of a design that contains a high, wide toe box that allow feet room to breath and spread out.

  • Metatarsal supports

  • Ball of the foot cushions

  • Reusable gel pads

  • Adhesive padding

  • Orthotics

  • Shoes with wide toe box and sensible heels
