    Hey I just found out about this recently.

    I wondered if any of you had tried it. You tape the third and fourth toes together and here’s the reasoning, there’s a nerve that splits between those two toes, which causes pain when pressure is put upon it (a.k.a. when you wear heels). The tape removes strain on the nerve. I like heels but after an hour or two ouch!

    Has anyone tried it and does it work? And is bad for the feet or anything?

    It would be nice to wear high heels more comfortably!

    Don't think I've ever suffered what you are talking about.

    Can't imagine it would be good for your feet to be taping toes together

    Not always and only in very very high heels. It's just a little uncomfortable after a few hrs. http://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2015/feb/13/high-heel-pain-taping-toes-together

    Supposed to work.:confused:

    She did say the balls of her feet were fine but the shoes were too tight but well spotted!

    Having read the article I know the pain now I thought it was toe pain not balls of your feet pain
    I find platform heels prevent it
