Provided is a guidewire (1) including a core shaft (2), an outer flexible tube (4), and an inner flexible tube (5) that surrounds a distal end portion of the core shaft. The inner flexible tube is disposed in the outer flexible tube so that a distal end thereof is positioned between the distal end of the core shaft and a proximal end of the core shaft so as to be separated from the core shaft. A first joint (6) is formed so as to join the distal end of the inner flexible tube to the core shaft. At least one second joint (7a,7b) is formed so as to join the outer flexible tube to the inner flexible tube. The at least one second joint is positioned between the first joint and the proximal end of the core shaft. |
