Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of care product technology, and in particular to an adjustable toe pad. Background Art

[0002] At present, there is no complete cure for diabetes in clinical treatment, and it can only be maintained by drugs. One of the most common and serious complications of diabetic patients during treatment is diabetes-related foot ulcers, which are a precursor to 84% of lower limb amputations and increase the risk of death from the disease. It is often caused by peripheral neuropathy, which leads to changes in the shape of the arch of the foot and causes foot deformities. First toe valgus is a common deformity. In severe cases, the first and second toes of the patient's foot will overlap and cross, and the overlapping and crossing will easily cause ulcers in the pressure area, leading to the occurrence of diabetic foot.

[0003] In addition, some elderly people or seniors who have been bedridden for a long time, those who have suffered a stroke or hemiplegia, and others who need protection due to toe ulcers, suffer from ulcers between the toes due to long-term close contact between the toes and lack of good ventilation between adjacent feet, which leads to the occurrence of diabetic foot.

[0004] At present, most ordinary insoles on the market are ordinary flat-plate type. The toes are in close contact with each other on the insoles, and the toe gaps are moist and produce secretions. They are not suitable for bedridden elderly people, stroke or hemiplegia patients, diabetic patients and other people with toe ulcers who need protection, so improvement is needed.
