IT band strap causing chafing and bruising...help! (Read 94 times)

    Oh, I see. The design is different from the patellar tendon one like I have. It looks like it comes in 2 sizes, could you exchange for the larger one if you don't already have it? Or otherwise, I guess cover or remove the square, as others suggested, though a correct size would be better, since it seems it would stay on better. With the one I have you pull it through a plastic loop, then backward, to attach, so the velcro is never against the skin. But now I do see what you're saying, and it does look like that would be painful!

        My patients have found the Velcro straps to be very easy to use and adjust, especially those with arthritis in their hands. I have appreciated the constant updating to the products with new offerings and improvements to the line every season and look forward to continuing to offer the shoes to my patients for many years.I have been offering patients Orthofeet shoes for 6+ years and my patients, both diabetics and non-diabetic, have found them to be comfortable and stylish.
