I recently broke my 5th toe (pinky) & have tiny toes. would love to not use tape & gauze to stabilize it, would these work???

I'm not sure. They're really designed for middle toes. The small width really only fit over one toe (not including the one you loop it to). The wider size fits over two toes. Some of the problem will be with how much your foot angles. You probably don't want to pull on your broken toe at an angle.

I am not sure if you could get them to stay on the way you need it to. I have fairly large toes and I broke my big toe. It just fit with the big toe and second toe in it. But they do have velcro to help adjust it to your feet. So it might be worth at least giving it a try.

Hard to tell. i used it on the two longest toes and it worked well, but I think that your two toes to tie together would have to be similar in length.

I purchased the toe pouch to help with a sore toe.I wear them with my regular size shoe and a rounded toe.It appears that they don't take up much room but might with a narrow toed shoe.

i read some other' reviews; their complaint is that when it is "wet" (due to sweats) then the tape would slip; i can see that, it seems that it works well around the toes cuz there are lil spaces around them to move or slip. Short answer, it may not be good for your needs. :/

The ones I've had could only be used for 1st & 2nd toes because of their size. I don't know if the Toe Buddy comes in smaller sizes that would fit the pinky & next toe.

No, they gripped just fine. The toe stop was VERY slippery, as it seemed to be a plastic rather than a rubber feel. That kind of stopper is fairly worthless. Lol

My guess would be yes. I had difficulty keeping them on my fourth and fifth toe.

I would NOT use this brace for varicose problem unless you check with your dr. A gradual tightness via ace wrap would probably be better. I think this could be too tight.....these run small. I haven't been able to wear my medium one and do not have large legs . I.e. I am 5'4" and weigh 130#.

They definitely help stretch the toes. I'm hoping to avoid a hammer toe that has been developing on one foot, and I'm not sure they're doing that, but I read that one way to avoid hammer toes developing is to stretch the toes, so I figure they will help in the long run and probably won't do any harm. From the beginning never hurt my toes, so I didn't have an adjustment period like some people have described. I use them every day, and I enjoy being calm and still for half an hour or 45 minutes while all I do is stretch my toes. That's worth something too!

I just tried it on my little toe. It fit but it may not stay on without a sock... it is a little large for the little toe, but it could work. All I know is that I am so happy I found this little device. It's comfortable and it has helped... win-win-win. Hope this helps. Cheers.

When I used it, I just applied a layer over the toenails of a cleaned foot. Give it a few minutes to dry, then you can put your socks on. I do not use it anymore and changed to plain vinegar per my podiatrist recommendation. It is a year long process, and you need to hang in there. Quick fixes if advertised are clearly bogus...would not happen.

The product is made for the 2nd and 3rd toes, since the product can be easily cut with scissors you could rig it to fit on the first toe.Be warned though that this is an elastic product which would perhaps constrict your blood flow and cause other consequences. There are other products here on Amazon that would better suit your condition.

I purchased this for my Husband who uses it on his middle toes. He said he didn't see why it wouldn't work on the pinky toe but you would need longer and bigger toes--more like a man's pinky. All it does is wrap around the toes. So I guess it depends on how big your toes are.

I looked all over amazon, the web, and all of the stores in my area and came up with nothing. My toe was broken and I needed something to keep my toe from bending so I used popsicle sticks and sports wrap. Wasn't very good. Good luck!

No, just roll them open to get the toes in easily, and unroll them up to put on. I've used these for foot pain for a while, and they are great. I just had serious foot surgery and have to keep compression on to prevent swelling - these are perfect!

Yes, I would think you could use them on toe nails. I, however, have not tried that yet.

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 have secured gauze to my satisfaction, but be aware that the tape is waterproof and does not breath like most tapes do. But it is a very flexible and soft tape so it would be great for joints. This tape does not leave a sticky residue like some do after several days.
