My feet are killing me!

My feet are killing me!

What you wear on your feet is the most important part of foot care. One quarter of the bones in your body are located in your feet, and your feet are the foundation and support for the rest of your body. If you are experiencing toes, foot, ankle, knee, lower back or shoulder pain, it very well may stem from improper care of your feet. These pains are often caused by the style and fit of your shoes. A supportive shoe, combined with the proper (arch support) insert, will put your foot in its natural position for walking and standing. By putting your foot in balance, the alignment of other joints will be improved; properly aligned joints means less pain.

Did you know?

  • The average person walks the equivalent of 3.5 times around the world during their lifetime.
  • 90% of all people wear improperly fitted shoes. Ouch!!
  • The human foot contains 26 bones, 33 joints, and over 100 tendons, muscles and ligaments. That’s an awful lot of places for pain to occur.
  • Most foot problems or conditions are caused or aggravated by poorly fitted shoes.

What to do if your feet are hurting?

  • Replace your running or walking shoes often, either every 6 months or between 200 – 400 miles. Once the sole starts to wear out, your feet and your body start to take more and more of the impact. If you wait to replace the shoes until they are falling apart, your feet and your body will suffer. The shoes need to control your feet and not allow them to go where ever they want to go. Shoes that are worn out will not control your feet and keep you in balance.

  • Ice massage, rolling your foot over a cold plastic soda bottle will do wonders for a painful arch by reducing the inflammation. These are classic methods that help foot pain relief that doctors can advise patients with some conditions to do at home.
  • The human foot contains 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 tendons, muscles and ligaments. You don’t need doctors to tell you that there are an awful lot of places for pain to occur.
  • Try a proper (arch support) insole. Insoles are supportive devices that fit into shoes and support your feet. When properly fit in your shoes, the insert acts as an interface between the foot, the shoe and the ground. With a proper insole you are supporting your foot and ankle while standing and walking, as well as improving your balance, alignment, performance and comfort any time you are on your feet. Allowing more equal weight distribution offers relief from undesirable stresses associated with foot pain and discomfort across the under surface of the foot.

Which supportive shoes can help me with foot pain?

The best running shoes must provide support to both your heel and arch in order to successfully ease any pain. When searching for the best supportive shoes, you need to look for three major attributes:

  • Built in arch support or removable insoles to accommodate orthotics.
  • Heel support.
  • Good cushioning.

Below are supportive walking and running that help reduce foot pain.

Can Insoles Help Me Reduce My Foot Pain?

They sure can! Insoles can effectively help support your arches and evenly distribute pressure across your whole foot.

You only get one pair!

In your lifetime you will walk over 100,000 miles! Care for your feet with proper shoes and inserts will improve the overall structural health of your feet—toes, arches, and all.
