The Thuasne forefoot relief shoe from the Podomed range has been designed to relieve pressure on the forefoot in cases of injury, trauma, fractures, plantar ulcers or after surgery. In fact, the conditions that necessitate the use of this type of therapeutic forefoot relief shoe are known to be painful and have functional repercussions, as they cause considerable discomfort when walking and therefore hinder movement. This short model of forefoot unloading shoe will help reduce pressure on the forefoot and provide a suitable device to relieve and unload the forefoot during the convalescence period. The Thuasne Podomed offloading shoe consists of a base with a heel block that flexes dorsally by 10° in the distal part, allowing the foot to be elevated. It has a base to support the rest of the shoe and a plate for ventilation. It has a rounded heel for safe, easy walking, and an enveloping foam fabric with no internal seams to avoid pressure zones and guarantee better protection of the limb temporarily put to rest.
It also allows a bulky dressing to be worn on the forefoot in post-op The Thuasne offloading shoe has a hook-and-loop fastening system and will be a great help in compensating for a temporary handicap and improving living conditions during this temporary phase. Features:
