Heel Protectors Cushion Pain Relief Foot Pillow for Pressure Sores Foot Support Boot Surgery Recovery Supplies for Elderly Bedridden Pressure Ulcer Cushion Ankle Pillow for Bed, Wheelchairs (1 Pair)

I ordered these to help my feet. I am a paraplegic and have developed some pressure in my feet from wearing shoes. These cushions have helped my feet by providing much needed comfort. I noticed areas of my feet clearing up. It’s good to wear these while lying down. I typically wear them overnight. They come off sometimes due to my leg spasticity, but the product overall is wonderful. I should have purchased these sooner than when I did.

i have very tight feet and have suffered with awful foot cramps at night when I sleep. In order to keep my feet in one position with toes pointing up upwards ( no pain this way) , I tried night time foot splints, boots , etc but i woke up in more pain than I started with. After trying the Heel Pillow Pads, I FINALLY had a decent nights sleep! They are soft enough to allow my foot to move, but still gently keep my toes and ankles in position. Be sure to wear loose fitting socks ( not tight) and position your toes to stick out of the top.I also leave the blankets pulled up at the bottom of the bed to prevent any repositioning or shifting. I don’t care if they are hard to wash. I will buy several and always take them off if I have to use the bathroom. My sleep is worth it!!

I have neuropathy, patches on the heel that burn badly. So sleeping on my back is hard because my heel rubs against the sheet. For some reason there are spots inside this foot pillow that are not smooth or comfy for my foot to be in, it aggravates the burning and tenderness. For the most part these foot cushions are miraculous and I’m grateful for them, but I’d like to tell the manufacturer to please make sure all the seems are sewn gently with material that will not cause aggravation to the tenderness in the foot

I have a neuropathy that limits my controlled movement of my feet. I had a former injury to my right heel and had difficulty with healing because sleep always was associated with persistent pressure in the area.I thought these heel pads would help, and in fact, they did The problem is that in ordinary activities, it is impossible to avoid occasionally contacting some sort of dirt with the cushion when it is on your foot, and they are covered in soft fabric, so the fabric tends to cling to dirt. There is no getting around the fact that they will almost certainly need to be washed from time to time. They are basically a fabric shell filled with fibrous foam particles, so washing by hand would be difficult, as it would take half of forever to get the excess fluid of washing out and have them dry to put them back to use, so a washing machine seems like it should be the ideal way to clean them. I recall having received no information recommending against machine washing, and I simply hoped that they were sewn together in a manner such that they would remain intact during the process.Instead, one of the two tore apart and destroyed my washing machine. It had these fibrous foam pieces diffusely distributed throughout the wash chamber and the drainage system. On top of that, somehow, having the boot come apart in the washer resulted in loss of control of the wash cycles. I would try everything I could think of to get the last of the foam out. It would look clean. I would try washing another load. Being otherwise distracted, I would put in the load and then leave it, expecting to return to transfer it the dryer the next day, only then to find that the washer had run non-stop for about 24 hours. I have had to replace my washing machine just for having washed these.They work and are useful. I wish they were better made so that they could be washed, and I am very troubled to have had to replace a major appliance for having washed an item made of fabric, where it looked like that should have been an ordinary expectation. If you want to use these, given that they are quite inexpensive, I would recommend care in use to delay the need for washing as long as possible, and then when they get to the point that they appear they must be washed, I would discard them and replace them. It's pretty pathetic to have to take that route, but I have no other idea how to get around the flimsy sewing that goes into making the item.

Fit is not like picture. The model must have very tiny feet. I wear a women's size 8 and my feet are hanging out. Other then that they work fine & are comfortable.

Just what my husband needs for his heel sore. Not bulky like another one I bought

If it wasn't for the advanced state of my wife's ankle ulcer, these boots would probably have been just right. Unfortunately, any ankle contact with anything was just too painful.

It serves the purpose. Good support for heels.
