Are you aware that next month celebrates National Foot Health Awareness Month? Surprisingly, around 20% of Americans report experiencing foot issues each year. Now is the opportune moment to prioritize foot health. Recognizing the importance of maintaining foot health is crucial, and to add a bit of interest, here are some fascinating facts about feet and ankles:

- A foot contains 26 bones, which accounts for a quarter of all the bones in the human body. Additionally, each foot has 33 joints, 107 ligaments, and 19 muscles and tendons.

- On average, an individual takes between 5,000 and 7,000 steps daily. According to the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA), over a lifetime, the average person will walk close to 100,000 miles, which is equivalent to circling the Earth three to four times.

- The best time to purchase shoes, as recommended by the American Podiatry Medical Association, is in the afternoon. This is because feet tend to slightly swell over the day, making it ideal to choose shoes that accommodate this increase in size for optimal comfort.

- Women are four times more likely than men to encounter foot issues, largely due to the types of shoes worn.

- Foot problems can often signal the onset of more severe health issues. The state of your feet can reflect overall health, with conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, nerve, and circulatory disorders manifesting initial symptoms in the feet.

- The soles of the feet have a higher concentration of sweat glands and sensory nerve endings per square centimeter than any other part of the body.

- Despite 25% of Americans suffering from foot ailments, only a fraction seek medical advice, and even fewer (12%) consult with a podiatrist.
