Padding options for hammertoes with corns should address both pressure relief and protection. Here are some of the best padding solutions:

1. Toe Sleeves & Caps
Gel Toe Sleeves – Soft, stretchable sleeves lined with gel to cushion the toe and protect corns from friction.
Gel Toe Caps – Fully enclosed gel covers that protect the entire toe, especially helpful for corns on the tips of the toes.
2. Toe Crest Pads
Foam or Gel Toe Crest Pads – These fit under the curled hammertoe to lift it, reducing pressure on the tip and preventing corns from forming. Often held in place with an elastic loop around the toe.
3. Toe Spacers & Separators
Silicone or Foam Toe Spacers – Help realign toes, preventing overlapping and reducing friction that can lead to corns.
Gel Toe Separators – Keep toes from rubbing against each other, reducing pressure on corns that form between toes (interdigital corns).
4. Corn Pads & Cushions
Adhesive Foam or Felt Corn Pads – Circular or oval-shaped pads with a cutout to offload pressure from the corn.
Silicone or Gel Corn Cushions – More durable and reusable than foam, designed to redistribute pressure.
5. Metatarsal Pads
Gel or Foam Metatarsal Pads – Placed inside shoes to support the ball of the foot, reducing forefoot pressure that can worsen hammertoe pain.
6. Custom Padding Solutions
Custom-made Orthotics with Built-in Padding – Podiatrists can create orthotics with specific padding to offload pressure from hammertoes and corns.
