Product Description

The Dr. Jill’s Gel Callus Cushion provides targeted protection for calluses and other sensitive pressure points on the foot.

Its soft purple gel construction surrounds the affected area while the centre opening helps keep direct pressure away from the tender callus. During standing or walking, pressure is redirected onto the surrounding gel cushion to help improve comfort.

No separate adhesive is required. The natural tackiness of the gel helps the cushion remain positioned against clean, dry skin. After washing and air drying, the pad regains its self-sticking surface for continued use.

Each cushion is approximately ⅛ inch thick, allowing it to fit inside many casual and dress shoes without adding the bulk of a full-length insole. The smaller centre section may also be used separately to cushion another tender area where footwear rubs.

The cushions are washable, reusable, latex-free and non-medicated. Each package contains one pair.

Product Benefits

Targeted Callus Cushioning

The opening in the centre allows the pad to surround the callus instead of placing additional material directly on top of it.

Helps Offload Pressure

The surrounding gel receives some of the pressure generated while standing or walking, helping reduce direct contact with the sensitive area.

Self-Sticking Without Glue

The natural gel surface helps the cushion stay positioned without a separate adhesive strip.

Washable and Reusable

The cushions can be cleaned and reused. Washing also helps restore their natural tackiness.

Low-Profile Footwear Fit

At approximately ⅛ inch thick, the pad can fit inside many everyday, casual and dress shoes.

Additional Centre Cushion

The smaller centre piece can be used on another tender spot where footwear causes rubbing.

Recommended Uses

The Gel Callus Cushion may provide protection and cushioning for:

• Foot calluses
• Intractable plantar keratosis, or IPK
• Localized pressure points
• Tender areas caused by footwear
• Friction from dress or casual shoes
• Sensitive areas that require targeted cushioning
• Discomfort during prolonged standing or walking

OrthoConnectION specifically identifies the cushions for calluses and IPKs. The product should be described as providing cushioning and pressure redistribution—not as removing or curing a callus.

How to Use

1. Wash and completely dry the foot.
2. Identify the callus or sensitive pressure point.
3. Remove the cushion from its packaging.
4. Position the centre opening directly around the callus.
5. Press the surrounding gel gently against the skin.
6. Ensure that the cushion lies flat without folding.
7. Put on a properly fitting sock if desired.
8. Confirm that the shoe has enough internal room.
9. Walk for a short period and assess comfort.
10. Remove the cushion and inspect the skin after initial use.

The centre opening should surround the callus rather than place additional pressure directly on top of it.

Using the Smaller Centre Piece

The smaller centre section may be used separately on another tender area where a shoe rubs.

To use it:

1. Place it over a clean, dry pressure point.
2. Make sure it lies flat.
3. Confirm that it does not increase footwear pressure.
4. Check the skin after initial wear.

OrthoConnectION and Kenron both identify the smaller centre piece as an additional cushion for tender areas caused by shoe rubbing.
