Do these work to stretch the area that can rub raw the skin around the back of the ankle, or are they more for solving width problems at the feet?

I don't use them to stretch the length of the shoe, and I'm not sure these would work well for that. They are rather flimsy.

I'd say more for foot box of shoe not the heel. I'd recommend lambs wool. It's a great cushion and cheap.

They can solve both but depends on the type and grade quality of the leather involved.

Yes, I think it would be helpful for you to use these Toe Gel Separators. They have helped my big toes alot!

I would say no. It's best for wrapping around both ankles, and doing side, front, or back leg raises. This also strengthen hip muscles.

I would get the larger size, but I think they would really help your feet feel better. They stretch out the toes after being cramped in shoes all day. I can really tell a difference if I don't use them for over a week. I do them while watching tv, so I don't even have to make time for them.

If your purpose is to widen your shoes, this stretcher will do the job. My tight shoes problem was solved.

I think they would help. That's one of the reasons I wear these kind of support stockings. I spend a lot of time sitting and wearing these stockings keeps my legs and ankles from swelling which, for me, is the main cause of leg aches.

The width across the pads are 2 1/4" and 2 1/2" in length from front to back. The thickness is 1/4". These do help and I recommend that they be wrapped around your foot with an elastic flexible tape so that they don't slip. I used these for about a year until I could find a specialist experienced in the foot and ankle to do the surgery.

It worked for me with women's shoes. Not a guarantee it works for everyone. If you can't return it's worth a try. But I would keep the stretcher in the shoe a day or two and to the max setting.

That's exactly what I'm using it for. So, far its has eased the discomfort due to the fact that I have wide feet.

these are better for small wrist/ankles, they are not sized well for adults

No. They are for stretching the toe area as shown in the photo to widen and relieve pressure on the baby toe. Sorry.

It is meant primarily for the toe area of a woman's high heel shoe. It works wonderfully in that capacity. I don't think it will work well to stretch the body of a shoe.

I would think you could they do stretch.i used them to protect my big toe in the shower and bathtub

They have velcro wraps that wrap the ankle as tightly as one may desire. I like them a lot. Adjustable in 1/2 pound increments.

I think they would be far too bulky and uncomfortable for that use, perhaps if you were just going to sit in a chair and use them, than okay, but certainly not if you are planning on doing anything. I could not use these on my wrists if I wanted to, they were bulky for my ankles I cannot imagine using them in that fashion, but again, it would depend on how how big your wrist is.

Since I don't suffer from PF, I can't say yes/no w any certainty; however, they do offer compression around the heel and lower ankle, so it *seems* to me like they would help.

no. MY wife uses them as compression socks for calf and ankle swelling. They work fine.
