Flexipro Bunion Protector Size M
All product information
Silicone medical device formulated to reduce friction and focal pressure on the bunion, providing symptomatic relief and protection against the formation of chafing lesions. The structure combines a polyamide/elastane fabric that offers support and adaptability with a soft silicone core in the contact area, allowing a more even distribution of loads and a reduction of pressure points. The thin and discreet design facilitates prolonged use with regular footwear, including closed and sports shoes, without significantly altering foot ergonomics.
Clinical objective: pain relief, prevention of irritations, and protection during recovery processes or preventive use in people prone to hyperpressure on the head of the first metatarsal. The effect is immediate upon placing the piece: the silicone acts as a cushioning and separating element, reducing friction between the bunion and the inner edge of the shoe. This is not a structural corrective product for hallux valgus, so in advanced deformities its use should be integrated into a therapeutic plan supervised by a healthcare professional.
Recommended user profiles: adults with bunion discomfort, people in podiatric rehabilitation programs, active fitness users requiring protection for low to medium intensity training, and older adults with fragile skin or tendency to chafing. Although it can be used by recreational athletes, it does not replace specific orthoses for high performance; in cases of competition or intense training, its incorporation should be assessed together with the corresponding professional team.
Compatibility with diet and supplements: as a non-food external device, it is compatible with any dietary regimen (keto, vegan, or others) and with the concomitant use of sports supplements, multivitamins, or protein shakes used in recovery or sports nutrition programs. Its use has no effect on anti-doping controls, as it contains no absorbable or inhalable substances.
Specific indications: preventive use to reduce the appearance of calluses and chafing; symptomatic use to relieve local pain and reduce inflammation caused by friction; complement in the recovery phase after interventions or conservative treatments when the goal is to protect the area and facilitate footwear tolerance. Contraindications and precautions should be reviewed on the label, and in the presence of open wounds, ulcers, active dermatitis, or sensory alterations (e.g., diabetic neuropathy), its use requires professional assessment.
Maintenance and durability: the combination of materials allows hand washing with water and neutral soap to maintain hygiene; drying should be air-dried. The lifespan depends on frequency of use and care, but the silicone material retains its cushioning properties with proper maintenance. Individual use is recommended to avoid microorganism transfer between people.

What type of bunions is it indicated for?
Indicated for bunions that cause pain due to friction or pressure from footwear. It does not correct progressive bone deviation; in advanced structural cases, podiatric or surgical treatment should be considered.
What shoe size corresponds to M?
Size M covers approximate shoe sizes 39-41. If there is doubt between two sizes, the smaller option fits better to maintain the position of the protector.
Can it be worn all day?
The design allows prolonged use with regular footwear; however, in the presence of redness, intense pain, or skin lesions, it is recommended to discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
How is it cleaned and maintained?
Hand wash with lukewarm water and neutral soap; air dry. Avoid exposure to direct heat sources that may deform the silicone.
Is it suitable for athletes and competitions?
It is considered compatible with recreational sports practice and does not affect anti-doping controls as it is an external device. In high performance or competitions, its use should be integrated into the medical team's technical strategy.
Can a person with diabetes use it?
People with diabetes or peripheral neuropathy should consult their healthcare professional before using devices or protectors in risk areas due to possible loss of sensitivity and risk of injury.
Can it be shared between different people?
Not recommended to share between people for hygiene reasons and risk of microorganism transfer; individual use only.
Is it necessary to wear stockings or socks?
Using it together with stockings or socks improves support and reduces indirect friction; it also facilitates hygiene by avoiding direct contact with footwear.
1. Before first use, wash the protector with warm water and neutral soap and let air dry.
2. Place the protector on the foot ensuring that the big toe is inserted into the compartment designed for it and that the silicone area is centered over the bunion.
3. Use with regular footwear; for greater comfort and stability, wear stockings or socks.
4. After use, wash and let air dry. Avoid dryers or direct heat sources that could damage the silicone.
5. If in doubt between two sizes, choose the smaller one for a more secure fit.
- Medical device; read the label and instructions before use.
- Do not use on open wounds, active skin infections, ulcers, or dermatitis without prior assessment.
- In case of diabetes, neuropathy, or other peripheral sensitivity disorders, consult a healthcare professional before use.
- Discontinue use if persistent redness, increased pain, shine, cracks, or skin lesions appear; seek professional evaluation.
- For individual use only for hygiene reasons.
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or substances that may degrade the silicone.
- Does not replace corrective treatments prescribed by a specialist in cases of significant structural deformity.
- Effectiveness depends on proper fit; incorrect size reduces efficacy and may increase pressure.
