ABSTRACT:
The present application is directed to a valgus big toe rectifying supporter which can prevent pain in and around a valgus big toe and its nail which will be caused by pressure exerted by the valgus toe or its nail, comprising a metatarsal joint securing band which will be firmly wound around the metatarsal joint at the root of the big toe laterally of the foot so that the metatarsal joint may be kept fastened, with this band turned upward, projection pieces extended from the upper end lower edge by the band, and a resilient body positioned between said projection pieces which will be inserted between the big toe and the second toe. The big toe can extend outward, so that its nail is not pressed to cause pain around it. Since the valgus big toe rectifying supporter can fit any big toe regardless of the thickness or length thereof, one can freely move the big toe thereby allowing easy walking.
