Epitact Bunion Protector Medium

The Epitact Bunion Protector is designed to provide relief from pain caused by bunions (hallux valgus). It helps reduce pressure and friction on the bunion, making everyday activities more comfortable. The protector features EPITHELIUM 26®, a patented silicone gel that cushions and protects the affected area while remaining thin and lightweight for ease of use with any type of shoe.

Indication

The Epitact Bunion Protector is recommended for individuals experiencing pain due to bunion pressure and friction. It provides a protective barrier that reduces discomfort while allowing you to continue wearing your regular footwear.

Contraindications

• Do not use on injured or broken skin.
• If you have arteritis, diabetes, lower limb neuropathy, or ulcers, consult your doctor or podiatrist before use and monitor your foot regularly during use.

How to Use the Epitact Bunion Protector

1. The protector should be worn directly on the skin, on either the left or right foot.
2. Slip your foot into the protection pad, ensuring your great toe is placed in the tubular section.
3. The Epithelium 26® gel module should be positioned over the bunion for optimal relief.
4. To maintain the protector’s position, wear socks, stockings, or tights over it.

Features and Benefits

• Ultra-Thin Design: Unlike bulky bunion protectors, the Epitact Bunion Protector is thin and lightweight, preventing additional discomfort or pressure on other areas of the foot.
• EPITHELIUM 26® Gel Technology: The 1mm-thick silicone gel layer minimizes friction and protects the bunion without affecting mobility.
• Comfortable Fit: Can be worn inside most types of shoes without causing irritation.

Epitact Bunion Corrector Size Guide

Choosing the right size is important to ensure the protector fits well and offers maximum relief. A bunion protector that is too large may not stay in place, while one that is too small may cause unnecessary pressure. Please refer to the Epitact bunion corrector size guide to select the appropriate size for your foot.

Additional Advice

If your great toe is still mobile and has lateral movement, consider using the Epitact Flexible Bunion Corrector. It helps slow down the progression of the bunion, alleviates joint pain, and prevents excessive rubbing on the affected area.

Cleaning and Lifespan

• Machine washable at 30°C (86°F) or hand wash with soap and water.
• Avoid rubbing the protector during cleaning.
• Allow it to dry naturally—do not iron.
• Reusable for several months with proper care.
