🍂👟 Fall Is Almost Here! 👟🍂

As the cooler weather approaches, it's time to swap out those sandals for cozy, closed-toed shoes. But did you know that this change in footwear can sometimes trigger bunion pain? 😬

Closed-toed shoes can put more pressure on your toes, especially if they're tight or poorly fitted. 🦶🏼 But don’t worry! We’ve got some tips to keep your feet comfortable this season:

✅ Choose shoes with a wide toe box
✅ Opt for cushioning & arch support
✅ Avoid shoes with pointed toes

If you’re already dealing with bunion discomfort, our team at Gadsden Foot Clinic is here to help. Reach out for a consultation today! 🙌

Stay comfy and take care of those feet this fall! 🍁

After wearing flip-flops all summer, some students will head back to school this fall with foot pain and even injuries. Flip-flops do not cushion the heel, so repetitive stress from walking can inflame that heel bone growth area and cause pain and tenderness. Heel pain and arch pain rank among the most common complaints among students who wear flip-flops, but other problems include inflammation of the Achilles tendon, painful pinched nerves, sprained ankles, broken or sprained toes, cuts and scrapes, plantar warts, Athlete's foot and callus buildup on the heels and toes.
Foot and ankle surgeons can usually reduce or eliminate students' foot pain with simple treatment methods, including stretching exercises, ice massage, anti-inflammatory medications and custom or over-the-counter shoe inserts.
