Epitact Bunion Protector

• Choose your size by shoe size; if you are between two sizes, Epitact advises choosing the smaller one.
• Slide the sleeve over your big toe so the gel pad sits directly over the bunion, then put your sock and shoe on as usual.
• Wear it during the day when wearing shoes, and take it off at night.
• Machine wash at 40°C in the mesh laundry bag supplied and leave to air dry.
• Replace it when the gel pad shows signs of wear.

Safety information

Who should not use it

Do not use on broken, injured or irritated skin, or over an open wound or ulcer. If you have diabetes, poor circulation or numbness in your feet, ask your doctor, pharmacist or podiatrist before use and check your feet regularly.

Warnings & precautions

If the protector feels tight, or you notice numbness, tingling, colour change or swelling in your toes, remove it. A bunion protector cushions the area but does not correct the joint; it is not a substitute for medical assessment. See your GP or a podiatrist if pain or swelling persists or gets worse.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding

No special precautions.

Possible side effects

Some people may notice skin redness, irritation or rubbing where the product touches the skin. If this happens, stop using it and ask your pharmacist for advice.

Always read the label

Always read the label and the instructions before use. If symptoms persist, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
