[0002] Foot pressure sores, also known as "foot pressure ulcers" or "foot bedsores," refer to tissue damage or necrosis caused by prolonged pressure, friction, or shearing forces acting on the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the feet, leading to obstructed local blood circulation. They are commonly seen in people who are bedridden for long periods, have limited mobility, have diabetes, or have circulatory disorders. These individuals require the use of anti-foot pressure sore pads during treatment.

[0003] When using pressure ulcer prevention foot pads, most of them cover the area of ​​the sole of the foot. Since most of the sweat glands on the feet are concentrated on the sole, the heat of the feet cannot be dissipated when the user uses them for a long time, causing the sweat glands on the feet to sweat and contaminate the pressure ulcer prevention foot pads. At the same time, the high heat of the pressure ulcer prevention foot pads can also lead to insufficient comfort for the user's feet. Therefore, we need a simple foot pad with sufficient breathability. Utility Model Content
