HAPAD Metatarsal Pads, Metatarsal Foot Pads for Pain Relief, Mortons Neuroma Pads Felt - Small,1/4 - (Pack of 6 Pairs) -

Disappointing quality. One pair is useless, no adhesive on the right pad.

I was suffering from capsulitis on my left foot - probably from carrying wood to and from when building my deck last summer - and it was killing me. I kept running for a while, but eventually I had to stop. After about 5 months, I decided to see the foot doc and he confirmed my self-diagnosis (it's not hard to do with the Internet these days). He gave me a couple of high-quality metatarsal pads, and after noticing the difference it made even working in the office (I sit most of the day), I was sold. I found these on Amazon and ordered a pack. I put them in my sneakers, running shoes, Chukka boots, and dress shoes. Finally - after months of wearing these - I am only feeling minor discomfort. These are great.I would suggest - as others have - to mark the bottom of your foot on your insole. In fact, the foot doc put the ones he gave me UNDER the sole, and that is what I would suggest.Highly recommended!

I had metatarsalgia on my right foot which caused me pain for close to a year. I went to a couple foot doctors and they told me it would go away with time and foot orthotics. I had to send my orthotics back 5-6 times because they could not get it right. Basically I had to figure it out on my own. I bought these Hapads and put 2(one on top of the other) right at my second metatarsal on top of the orthotic. It slowly but surely got 100% better over 1-3 months. I went from not being able to do anything at the gym but the sit down bike to whatever I want. I went from not being able to wear shoes to wearing them. I do buy wide toes now for space(in case you have metatarsalgia). Its a bad feeling when your feet hurt but if you have a similar situation as this, I would highly recommend giving it a try. Also, give it a week to get used to the bump in your foot. You will not even notice it after a few days.

Very useful to relieve foot pain.

I suffered from Morton's Neuroma for years and didn't bother going to doctor. When I finally lost patience and it got worse, I went. He recommended these and gave me a sample. I used his sample for my daily walk before I ordered my own and it worked! Unfortunately, they are expensive and are needed in all your shoes. Definitely worth it to alleviate the pain. Proper placement is very important. I followed the instructions and had relief right away. I only have the condition in my left foot but as some of the other raters say, I have used the right pad in my left shoe and it's fine.
