The forefoot can widen and cause the gig toe to move away from the foot. This is called hallux valgus or commonly also known as a bunion. The ligaments soften and cause the bones to move away from each other which makes the foot wider. Female hormones make the ligaments softer compare to men’s ligaments that are stiffer and stronger. Using Footerella Tapes in the special position holds the foot together and can reverse early stages of bunion for formation.
My mother has been told that the cushioning on the soles of her feet is too thin. Could she use this? Will it give her comfort and support? She is 72. Thank you Patricia
Dear Patricia,
your mother can use tapes to get the bones aligned in her feet and get the fat pad thicker again, When the foot bones drop and splay the fat pad gets stretched thinner. Using the tapes will align her bones and get her fat pad thicker again. If she has a bunion also she can use the Footerella tapes. If she has straight toes then use the foot corns tape. Best wishes, Footerella

I have a bunion and have been told that if it isn’t painful then do not make the surgery. But I don’t like the look of it and I want it fixed. Can I use this and does it really work. Souda
Dear Souda, yes you can use the beauty and the bunion tapes for instant alignment of the bunion. We would advised using the Footerella system also for a longer term and stronger treatment. https://footerella.com/womens-feet/footerella-system/

Can I use this tape? I’m 32 years old female never had children. How much and for how long? Thanks Tina

My feet got bigger after my children and I have always thought that my front foot gotten wider and that’s why it got bigger. Is this the case? Can this fix it? Thank you Claire
Yes Claire, the pregnancy hormones make the ligaments soft and this makes the bones in the feet move from the soft ligaments. The foot can easily widen. Yes, the tapes will bind your feet and make the ligaments tighten again as the tapes move the bones together to allow the ligaments to contract . Tapes should be worn on the feet all day for 2-6 weeks depending on the requirement. Best wishes, Dubai Podiatry
My daughter has a bunion. She is 19 and so can she use this? For how long? Thanks Ava
Yeas your daughter can use this. Also a good idea to check her ankle alignment as much of the time the ankle leaning-in will cause a bunion deformity at a young age. Best to have an assessment with Podiatrist Michelle Champlin. Best regards, Dubai Podiatry Centre
