KT Tape has endless possibilities, it is not just limited strictly to the suggested online instructions. If you can name it — KT Tape can probably help. A fan on Facebook asked this question –
“My daughter is a cheerleader & somehow injured her big toe, like where you would get a bunion? Any ideas as how to tape it so it can heal & she can feel some relief? Thanks for the advice.”
KT Tape’s suggestion? – Tape the toe similar to taping a finger in the finger jam application. You can cut the anchor (logo) side off of an I-strip, tear the perforation down the middle, and have two thin strips. Use one on top of the other for extra support and cushion.
KT Tape to the rescue, if even a bit unconventional.

We love it when customers get creative, just remember to use caution when experimenting with a new and inventive application and it’s always best to ask our KT Tape Expert on the instructions page or consult a KT Tape trained clinician first.

Hi,
My daughter is a soccer player and recently felt a twinge in the back of her leg at the lower part of her thigh behind her knee. She said she feels a twinge or band like sensation near the cords at the back of the knee. When she straightens the leg, she has discomfort in that area/behind the knee. What KT Tape method should I use to help support the area?
We’ll email you an application for the back of the knee. Thx.
I have pain on the front/outside part of my shin when walking and running. I’m a long distance runner and am wondering if there’s a way to tape for this. My physical therapist says it’s tendonitis, but I’m not sure what tendon or anything.
