FAQs

What does a metatarsal pad do?

A metatarsal pad is placed behind the ball of your foot to elevate the transverse arch, which helps redistribute pressure away from the sore metatarsal heads and reduces pain and irritation in the forefoot.

Do podiatrists recommend metatarsal pads?

Yes—podiatrists would suggest them to be used in metatarsalgia and forefoot pain, yet positioning and pad density are important.   Placed in the wrong positions, pads may enhance discomfort.

Can I run with a metatarsal pad?

Yes—many runners put on metatarsal pads to reduce the area of the forefoot and burning under the ball of the foot, particularly when doing long runs or running on hard surfaces.

Can metatarsal pads hurt your feet?

They may cause pain if they are too thick, positioned incorrectly, or apply pressure to the wrong area.     Change your posture, shoe size, or pad size when it is painful.
