UK PODIATRIST STATES THAT YOU SHOULD NOT IGNORE FOOT PAIN
posted: Dec. 08, 2017.
"Feet are one of the hardest working parts of our body, but they are also one of the most neglected," says Emma Stevenson, a podiatrist from The College of Podiatry. "We also tend to put up with pain in our feet more than in many other parts of our body. Many problems, if left unchecked, can become worse over time, so show those feet some love and don't ignore or put up with foot pain," adds Emma.

If you have frequent and ongoing pain in your feet, there's a reason for it, so it needs looking at. "It may be an underlying structural issue with your foot or it could be that the type of shoes you are wearing are not suitable for the activity. Don't put up with pain. Something can always be done and a podiatrist can work with you to diagnose the cause and help treat it," says Emma. Be nice to your feet and they'll take you places.
