Bunion - a foot ailment of the modern age
The causes of Bunion are modern footwear and closed socks. In them, the toes are laterally constricted and pressed against each other. The sensory system dulls, the permanent misalignment of the constricted toes in the shoe grinds in over time and becomes a chronic deformity. From the "foundation" of your body - your feet - it continues through the whole body and leads to symptoms that intuitively one would not associate with the toes: a hunched back, shoulder and neck tension, headaches, jaw discomfort, tooth wear. The whole body becomes misaligned due to the "bunion".
The approach of Knitido toe socks
Dr. Foot Bunion Toesocks are toe socks with a compression band incorporated at the level of the arch. This exerts gentle pressure on the midfoot area and relieves the toes. The individually bound toes prevent lateral pressure on the toe area.
The relief reactivates the sensory system of the individual toes and encourages the muscles to move freely - you can feel this in the urge of your toes to feel your environment. The increased movement stimulates the (re)development of muscles in the toes. The toes are integrated into the movement of the foot again instead of just "suffering" under them.
You can wear these closed Compression Bands discreetly under wide conventional socks or directly in your footwear or sandals in summer. You can also wear them comfortably while sleeping.
What can you do to support?
Allow your feet - and especially your toes - freedom of movement. Wide shoes that give your toes room, generous socks or toe socks that don't squeeze your feet are good prerequisites for this.
