Are your feet aching again? Are you wondering if a simple shoe insert might help? It might. But depending on what the problem is, you could need an "orthotic" instead:
Orthotics are prescription medical devices that you wear inside your shoes. They can help with foot pain caused by medical conditions such as diabetes, plantar fasciitis, bursitis, and arthritis. Orthotics might even help you avoid surgery to fix flat feet.

THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF HEEL PAIN?
It's likely that you've heard of (or had!) "heel spurs"
To be more accurate, however, we should call it PLANTAR FASCIITIS
- Plantar Fasciitis is most common cause of pain on the bottom of the heel. Approximately 2 million patients are treated for this condition every year.
- Although many people with plantar fasciitis have heel spurs, spurs are not the cause of plantar fasciitis pain. Because the spur is not the cause of plantar fasciitis, the pain can be treated without removing the spur.

Why You Shouldn’t Ignore a Verruca (Wart)

DID YOU KNOW
- Verrucas Usually Get Worse?
Over tme, the pressure you exert on it when standing or in motion may force the verruca deeper into your foot.

- They Can Multiply!
The skin surrounding the verruca can get infected too, especially if you scratch the growth (warts often itch). So if you don’t treat it swiftly, you may end up with a cluster of them.
