Crescent Pad
When should it be used?
If the tops of your patient’s toes need protection from rubbing then consider using a toe crescent pad to prevent this from happening.
1 First Steps
Take a square piece of semi compressed felt and round off two of the corners.
2 Cutting the Crescent Arc
After you’ve done this cut a crescent arc along the edge that is parallel to the rounded sides.
3 Bevel the Pad
Top bevel around the pad and if necessary you can under bevel the crescent arc.
4 Placing the Pad
Once you’ve completed shaping the pad you can place it around one of the toes.
In the demonstration Jonathan places the pad around a corn on the little toe.
