Footwear

Good shoes are important to one's well-being, since many hours are spent standing on them.

Foot problems will affect most of us at some point in our lives. One general recommendation that will ease the discomfort of most common foot problems is proper fitting shoes. Poorly fitting shoes can make symptoms of foot pain worse and in many cases be the primary cause of the problem. It is important to purchase footwear that fits properly from the moment you but them. For many people with more serious conditions like diabetes, proper fitting footwear is even more critical.

Shoe fitting tips:

• Have your feet measured- did you know that your feet get larger as your age?
• Buy shoes that have laces of Velcro-slip on shoes can lead to hammer toes, bunions and corns.
• Never buy footwear hoping they will "break in" later. Proper fitting shoes should feel good when you guy them
