Will the Paws for feet help with metatarsal pain (ball of foot)?

I'm guessing it would! I was having pain in my wrist without using yoga paws, and do not have any pain now that I use them!

I haven't used this product because I cured my plantar fasciitis by wearing a slip on shoe in the house. I found that the condition was aggravated by walking barefooted on tile and wood floors every day.

YES they will help. I only wear orthaheel shoes and have insert in all my other shoes (even my yard clogs) I am overweight and my ankles turn in and this helps keep them straight which then helps align my knees and hips I would buy them if I were you. (Also, you should go on the orthaheel website to see the video of how they work, very interesting)

It does help to protect your feet from sores, but if you have heel pain besides a doctor's prescription, i would recommend the SKIL CARE FLOAT HEEL PROTECTOR from Prime Discount in Amazon, i got both "booties" both are good, but because my mother developed sores in the big toe and heel, she is diabetic and bedridden, it was better to keep the heel free of pressure and avoid pain. The DMI comforting heel is very good to protect your feet from sores,but if those sores are spreading and causing too much pain in your heel i would suggest the float heel protector.My mother has both protectors (different one in each foot) and there is a lot of improvement.

I don't really know. I ordered a big package of these because these are exactly what my foot doctor used for my metatarsal. Don't use anything when it comes to your feet that it is not intended for. There are inside foot pads that are longer to accommodate your arch area.

Yes, i have many people who are using them successfully. It depends on how far the bunion has formed. It's definitely not a quick fix. You are trying to re educate your feet, and learn how to properly distribute your weight so when you walk your weight distributes more on the outside arch. Ideally you could find a good body worker. Bunions sometimes start because of the way your legs are distributing the weight in to your feet. These are lines of force that need to be redistributed. And then of course the kinds of shoes you wear are incredibly important. I hope this helps. John William Johnson, licensed massage therapist

not really sure, probably, it would just medicate ur feet :-) it's mainly used for soreness, so if ur feet hurt, try it.

No, they won't help for that purpose. You might look at the gel foot pads put out by Dr Scholl. Most of the major drug store chains carry Dr Scholl products.

Honestly these do nothing to help cure nor ease the discomfort. I suggest looking up the stretches you can do to help ease hammertoe instead. Shoes are an important key also.

I have Plantar Fascitis based on a strained arch. These orthotics, wearing sandals with a very high arch, and taking it easy provided significant relief. Once I resumed activity, I now have them in nearly all my shoes (tennis, walking, etc) and have not had a flareup with PF. Depends on your foot, the cause of your problem, etc, but I believe they really helped me past the PF problem.

They will help with the pain but it is not going to cure the issue, they did help with my foot pain

I would say yes, no and maybe on this one. It depends on the level of inflammation.If it is in an acute stage, using them could cause more discomfort, even though they might be useful to release some of the tension in the connection tissue. Certainly they are useful to keep the feet flexible and open, so they could be considered proactive. And as the inflammation and contraction release, they will be useful to massage the entire area really effectively.

Yes and No...I think it will help but you should also add something stronger to it. I wear my during the day with shoes, I hope this helps

Hello, I am sorry for the delay in answering your question. No, these pads will fit both feet. I am not sure if I mentioned this before but don't place the pad on the spot where it hurts you need to place it just below. I sure hope these give you some relief. Good Luck

Hi Judy, so sorry to hear about the sore on your Bouvier's paw. There are several options from Ultra Paws to help. There is the Wound Boot, for just a single injured paw so it can heal and reduce any chewing or licking. For all four paws, the Durable style is the best seller due to the softness and the grippy bottom. If you live in a wet climate, the PawTector boots act as galoshes for full waterproof protection. I hope one of these solutions will help your dog. Thanks for checking with us! Sally, MMP Living

YES! I suffer from arthritis like joint pains as an-after effect of the chikungunya virus (you can google that up, it's a mosquito transmitted disease) and I use the paws not just for yoga but for ordinary push-ups. The pain does not go away but the added stability from the paws helps me through it.

I have found that it varies with the shoe. You would have to try it both ways. The Pedag inserts have brought me relief.
