What you don’t know can hurt you…

One of the most common questions we get from our patients is about shoes.

Giving out shoe advice isn’t just about naming a few brands.

Not everyone has the same foot type.

What might be right for you might not be for the next person.

Someone with a normal or high arch requires a different shoe type from someone with no arch or a very flat one.

What makes this difficult is many people don’t know what type of arch they have.

Your true arch is determined when you stand, not your “sitting arch.”

Most people have an arch when they are sitting with their feet up.

At least half the population don’t have an arch when standing.

For simplicity sake, if there is space between the ground and your foot, you have an arch.

Again, to keep things simple, there are 2 main shoe categories: Neutral and Stability.

Neutral is for those with an arch and Stability is for those without one.

High arches need cushion for shock absorption and flat feet need stability and motion control to prevent the foot from rolling inward (pronation).

Whether you need a Neutral or Stability shoe, a knowledgeable shoe store sales person should be able to steer you in the right direction.

Keeping your feet healthy is incumbent upon wearing the shoes that are designed for your foot type.

However, if you have been experiencing foot pain for a while, don’t expect a new pair of shoes to solve the problem.

We’ve had far too many people spend far too much money on shoes, hoping for a quick fix.

If you are unsure about your foot type and what shoes are right for you, we can help.

Guiding you to effortless mobility is our ultimate goal.

Don’t ignore this one…

There is a nerve in your foot that can get pinched just like carpal tunnel. The area is on the inside of the ankle and it’s called Tarsal Tunnel.

Pain can occur right in that spot. Pain can also occur in your heel, arch, and the balls of your feet.

Tarsal tunnel syndrome can cause pain anywhere on the bottom of the foot. The sensations of nerve pain are often sharpness, burning, and tingling. Some people even notice an aching sensation in their arch from tarsal tunnel syndrome.

There are several possible causes of a pinched nerve in your foot and ankle.

The wrong shoes and even tight socks could be the culprit. Other than making sure your shoes aren’t pressing too tightly against the inside of your ankles and wearing socks that don’t feel tight, there is not much you can do at home for this condition.

Since nerves don’t show up on an x-ray, another diagnostic test is needed to make the definitive diagnosis. If we suspect this condition, we will try the most simple methods to alleviate the pain.

Pain on the inside of your ankle, heel, or arch might be from a pinched nerve. The longer a nerve is pinched, the lower the probability that a non-surgical solution will work.

We specialize in diagnosing and treating tarsal tunnel syndrome.

We welcome the opportunity to serve you again should the need arise.

It could be worse than you think…

Dropping something on your foot can lead to long-term pain. We’ve seen it happen many times. A broken bone can be the least of the concerns.

Injury to a nerve can be the most significant problem. We never dismiss an injury to the top of the foot when an x-ray is negative (no broken bone).

We’ve seen many patients who have suffered for months because of an injury to a nerve. If you drop something on the top of your foot either at home or work, simply being aware of what can occur will help to keep you out of danger.

In addition to rest, ice and elevation, keeping pressure off the top of the foot is important. Wearing looser fitting shoes or sandals, if the weather allows, will help to avoid further irritation to the nerves.

Avoid wrapping your foot in an ace bandage. You want as little pressure on the top of the foot as possible.

Because more can go wrong than just a broken bone, we recommend seeing us as opposed to an urgent care clinic for injuries to the feet.

If you have had months of pain after dropping something on your foot, we’d be happy to evaluate it. We enjoy serving you!

And Happy New Year,

Dr. Adam Klein, DPM
