RUCK pressure protection for foot and toes: Relief, protection and comfort

In podiatry and chiropody, high-quality products are used to protect, relieve and stabilise feet and toes. This is especially true for wounds, pressure points, corns or friction on the foot. They fulfil their main function thanks to pain relief and pain prevention by reducing mechanical pressure and providing mild support and cushioning. Discover a wide range of pressure protection for feet and toes in the Ruck online shop - from our own RUCK brand along with manufacturers such as Compeed, GoBunion and Hallufixs.

When is pressure protection used in orthopaedics?

Pressure protection can be found in a wide range of sizes, shapes and areas of application - in standardised sizes or adapted to individual foot and toe shapes. The main functions of pressure protection can be summarised as follows:

• Stabilisation: Whether stabilisation orthoses, compression bandages or insoles and toe pads - our pressure protection products provide secure stabilisation of affected areas. They prevent pressure and friction by ensuring the natural position of the toes or foot and immobilise injured or sore areas. Applications include casts and splints to protect fractures from pressure and strain, compression bandages to stabilise and stimulate blood circulation along with back orthoses for spinal correction.
• Protection: In the case of sores, calluses, blisters, nail fold problems, corns or other health problems, plasters, bandages or pads prevent aggravation and prevent friction, pressure and callus formation, among other things.
• Relief, cushioning and correction: By distributing or cushioning pressure evenly, our pressure protection reduces the strain on affected areas of the body and skin. They can also have a corrective effect and mildly guide toes into the correct position.
• Care: Corn plasters or toe caps with a gel coating have a caring effect by softening corns or moisturising the skin.
• Pain relief: In the case of painful, sore or inflamed areas, pressure protection products not only prevent particular strain and friction, but also provide effective pain relief.

What areas of application are there for RUCK pressure protection products?

Whether for pain relief, relief, stabilisation or care - pressure protection is the preferred use for the following health problems:

• Corns and calluses: Formation thanks to permanent pressure or constant friction over a long period of time on the toes or soles of the feet.
• Callus: Forms on the outer edges of the toes, on the soles of the feet or heels as thickened patches of skin thanks to a mixture of dry, hardened skin, friction and pressure.
• Nail fold problems and ingrown toenails: Caused thanks to nails that press into or grow into the transition between the skin and the nail.
• Hammer toes, claw toes and different deformities: Hammer toes and claw toes are malpositioned toes provided with a reinforced flexion of the toe joints.
• Heel spur: Can be discovered by a thorn-like ossification on the heel, which is formed thanks to pressure, overloading, irritation or inflammation of the bone.
