Wearing appropriate footwear regardless of their fashion preferences is one of the most common problems that confront many patients. But don’t worry, doing so will not deprive you of the chance to wear high heels to the special events. Ill-fitting shoe problems can cause many problems! Prevention is better than cure, it is important to choose suitable shoes. Fortunately, changing your shoes can lead to improvements in the overall health of your feet.

What are the ill-fitting shoe problems?

Do you suffer from pain in your feet? The shoe may be the problem, not your foot! For example:

  • The shoe may cause a feeling of pressure and constant pain if it is too tight, too loose, or does not provide enough support for your feet. Your physical activity can put stress on your feet, ankles, lower legs, and other joints.
  • It may significantly limit your activity due to sports injuries such as Achilles tendon, ingrown nails, or lower back problems.
  • The incidence of the infection increases if your shoes are not designed for your activity or working conditions.
  • Wearing the wrong shoes can exacerbate existing foot problems like pain or arthritis in the hips, knees, ankles, or feet.
  • Wearing the wrong shoes for a short time can cause stress and pain to your bones and joints.
  • Your shoes can have a big impact on the way you walk.
  • Remember that some types of shoes, including high heels and slippers, are not suitable for different activities.

So, the right shoe can help prevent, reduce or eliminate foot pain. The lack of pain has a huge impact on how easy you are to move, so find the right shoes and be active!
