How orthotics from your podiatrist in California, Clinton, and Waldorf, MD, can help your feet
If you suffer from foot problems, orthotics may be the answer you’ve been looking for. In fact, orthotics can provide relief to your feet if you suffer from arthritis, plantar fasciitis, and other painful foot and toe conditions.
The podiatrists at Southern Maryland Foot & Ankle provide a wide range of podiatry services, including orthotics to help your feet. They have several convenient locations in California, Clinton, and Waldorf, MD.
When you wear custom-fit orthotics prescribed by your podiatrist, you can expect:
- Decreased foot and toe pain
- Support for your arches and heels
- Relief from lower leg and back pain
- Proper foot and toe alignment
- Less foot stress when you are active
Orthotics are an excellent treatment option if you suffer from:
- Flat feet
- Bunions
- Hammertoes
- Plantar fasciitis
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Diabetic peripheral neuropathy
- Foot structure issues which are causing pain
- Foot pain due to sports or injury

Let’s look at the different options in orthotics for you to choose from. Consider:
Soft orthotics made entirely of soft materials, if you want to have help with balance, foot stress reduction, pain from arthritis, or diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
Semi-rigid orthotics made of both soft and rigid materials, if you want relief from a sports injury or activity-related stress on your feet.
Rigid orthotics made entirely of rigid materials, if you want to relieve tendon and muscle pain in your feet and legs.
