The reason you don't use gloves, is that it will partially melt the rubber, which means you are also absorbing some rubber.

I use it only for joint and back, and muscular pain,use no glove but wash hand after use.andre

I don't use gloves. I wash my hands well after applying the liquid. I had back surgery because of a collapsed disc and pressure on a nerve in my left leg, It relieves the nerve pain that I have as that nerve slowly regenerates itself.

Won't do a thing for corns and bunions !----------Works best on sore muscles a

I don't know if it's used for that. I know it works great on my partially herniated disks in my neck and my shoulder joints.

This will not be a cure for corns or bunions but will perhaps help with any pain. I don't use it at the 99% strength --I find it to strong. My Dad always mixed it 50/50 with water I have crept up to say 2/3 DMSO and 1/3 water proportion. For ease I have put it into a small spray bottle. Sometimes taking a hot wash cloth to wrap around and drive it in--- but it is absorbed quickly by the body. I wash my hands.

First you should transfer from shipped bottle into glass. Use a metal spoon (non plastic) to measure 1/2 tsp. to 1/2 tsp. aloe vera or water.No gloves necessary. One of the main books states it's best to try to increase the DMSO % but I find 50/50 works best without itching.

DO NOT WEAR GLOVES. DMSO by itself may help but I would suggest Aloe Vera gel applied first, followed by the DMSO which will carry the Aloe into the corn or bunion. Rub it in until the prickly tingling stops.

Just spray on , Rub in lightly you do not need gloves. Just wash your hands after .

I just use my hands and make small circular motions with my finger-tips. You want to be gentle with it and not rub too hard. Follow up with a moisturizer and you're good to go.

Immediately dab on elbows, ankles, tops of toes, etc. after applying tanner. I sometimes will put on a light coat on problem areas before applying tanner too.

I dont know what type of shoes you have but yes. I have a bunion and I can wear my brand new shoes now. BUT-I stretched them for several weeks! I kept turning the shoe horn and I would leave the shoes to stretch. If after a few days I could turn it I did. So my answer is yes, but if you want it quick and in a hurry, I dont think it will work.

I wear a 6.5 in women's and my son wears an 11 in men's and we both wear the medium. I have bunions on both feet and he has an overlapping big toe on one foot. We both wear the sleeve over the second toe instead of the big toe.

I used the coarse on mine. A foot cream or lotion of some type really helps the softening process. Good luck!!

I used these after my bunion surgery. Think about where your own bunion pressure points are. You may need to consult a dr.

yes. keep them bare on the bottom for best results. drape a small blanket or towel loosely over the top part of your feet. It's ok to wiggle your toes - ha!

I normally use a shot glass and add the carrier oil (EVOO or fractionated coconut oil) depending upon the area I need to cover. Half a shot glass or 2/3 will last for applications for several days. Drop in several drops, start with 2-3. I also use Deep Blue without other oils in my big toes, knees, etc. Great for arthritis or joint pain! To me the stuff is magic. I haven't been pain free for a decade, toe hurting 24/7, until I met Deep Blue. I keep it in a glass roller bottle in the bedroom and it lasts and lasts, with some carrier oil in it. You can order those on Amazon as well. Always stores essential oils in glass containers! Good luck and let me know how it goes...

I use the pure acetone and put it on a cotton ball then wrap the tip of my finger with tin foil and let it do its thing for about 15-20 minutes then use an orange stick to scrap off the polish it should crackle up when you take the foil off, make sure that you take a buffing block to rough up the top surface of the polish so that the acetone will work. DONT use an emery board type file you may get carried away with filing and damage your nail bed. The buffing blocks sold at Sally supply or any drug store works great just rough enough to take of the top coat off. DONT get anything to abrasive or like I said you may damage your nail bed and believe me that is quite painful! I am assuming this is your first go at the gel polishes? Did you have them done or are you thinking about doing them yourself either way I'm sure you know the steps to applying the polish and really taking the polish off is no big deal just a little time consuming because you can only work on one hand at a time. I hope I helped answer your question if you have any more I would be happy to help.

I think your supposed to put them in the holes -- the purpose is to stretch for corns and bunions.

No but just use Coco butter hand lotion on your feet and it will work just as good. I have bought them all and NONE of them work!

Make sure you buff the nails well, clean the nails (get any grease, creams or oils off) and use the primer (all provided). I also add 2 layers of polish which might help you.

Yes to both questions. You might need to soak your feet in warm water to soften the toenails.

have tried various garlic preparations in the past without complete success however did have good success with betadine iodine solution and simple cornstarch to keep dry and a good breathable like leather shoe with cotton socks if not sandals. also i heard a solution of pau d arco may be helpful for some but have not tried it .. again cotton socks real important and breathable shoes like canvas or leather not vinyl.

Yes, you can do your toes. I did mine and the polish has lasted for weeks. There's plenty of room for one foot (not enough room for two feet).

I only handwashed them once and then put in baby powder like it said in the instructions. They did not work for me because the only part of my body that sweats is my feet!! Good luck!! I have used Heeltastic and did like that with a golf sock, but I just can't stay on a rigid scedule right now, so just use it every time I get a chance!!
