Do You Advocate For Your Feet?

You’ve lived with your foot pain for so long now that you can’t even remember when it started, but what you do know is that you’ve grown sick and tired of compensating for this discomfort on a daily basis. You’re not alone! Becoming an advocate for yourself can be a big step for some people, especially those who think their foot and ankle pain is a normal part of aging or can’t be helped. The first step to becoming a better advocate for yourself is to seek the help of a great podiatrist.

Take a look at your family! What sort of chronic or ongoing issues do they have? Maybe your father has a stiff ankle, your grandmother might have diabetes or a bunion, or your aunt might struggle with cracked heels. If one or more of your relatives have a foot or ankle issue, chances are you will too.

A tale as old as time. As mentioned previously, maybe you’ve been living with a specific kind of pain or discomfort for as long as you can remember. These types of situations are especially important to be addressed - foot pain is not normal and you don’t have to suffer. 

Injuries, new and old. Remember that one time you broke a bone as a kid? It’s true that children can heal a lot quicker than we can as adults, but regardless of what age we were when it happened, injuries can have lasting effects.

Surprisingly, only one of out of every three people experiencing foot or ankle pain will ever seek the care of a podiatrist. Foot pain is not a normal part of life or aging, don’t put up with it!
