Podiatrists and orthotists may recommend felt metatarsal pads as a conservative, low-cost option for patients managing forefoot pain related to metatarsal head prominence, Morton's neuroma, or general forefoot overload. Athletes and active individuals who experience ball-of-foot discomfort during high-impact activities will find the self-adhesive backing keeps the pads reliably in place during movement. The wool felt construction is also a practical choice for patients who prefer natural materials and need a pad that molds to their foot shape over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere do I place the metatarsal pad in my shoe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePosition the pad just behind the ball of the foot — proximal to the metatarsal heads — so that it lifts and supports the metatarsal shafts rather than sitting directly under the heads. Correct placement is key to effective pain relief. Your podiatrist can help you identify the optimal position for your specific condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I choose the right size?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis listing is for the medium size. If you have a smaller or larger foot, check the small or large versions of this pad to ensure proper coverage and fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan these be transferred between shoes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe self-adhesive backing is designed to keep the pads in place inside a single pair of shoes. Repeated removal and reapplication may reduce adhesion. For use in multiple pairs of footwear, consider purchasing additional pairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long do felt metatarsal pads last?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLongevity depends on frequency of use and activity level. Replace the pads when the felt becomes compressed, loses its cushioning, or the adhesive backing no longer holds securely.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pedifix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388708761654,"sku":"8184M","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/8184m.jpg?v=1662854141","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/en-ca\/products\/pedifix-felt-metatarsal-pad-medium-pair","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
