ParticipantFoot comfort is my thing. Seriously.
Shoes are evil. Even normal dress or running shoes cramp feet.
Bad!
You need room to spread out.
Google barefoot philosophy to understand the problem of shoes.
I swear by http://www.sanuk.com
I stopped wearing regular dress shoes many years ago in favor of very wide footwear.
Birkenstock shoes can work for work. Also primal professional shoes. Or upscale sanuk.
Shoes are the enemy. They are rounded. Feet should be wide at toes with big toe spread for ground grippage.
After sleep and poop, feet are my 3rd highest concern.

But maybe better to try real barefoot style shoes before the surgery.

ParticipantListen to scaredy. He knows what he’s talking about.
Sorry you have to deal with this, flu. 🙁
June 1, 2015 at 6:58 PM #786911ParticipantPodiatrists lie. I know a podiatrist who was pro bad shoe.
They support the current footwear complex to keep foot problems occurring for more money.
The foot must be free

ParticipantKeep in mind that shoes come in different widths as well as lengths. Or at least good ones do.
June 1, 2015 at 7:09 PM #786913ParticipantBut not wide enough. It the TOE BOX that needs widening. Even normal wide shoes can jam feet.
June 1, 2015 at 7:19 PM #786914ParticipantTry until you find one that doesn’t, and don’t order online unless you’re a glutton for punishment.

CoronitaParticipantCrappy image…
[img_assist|nid=20917|title=ouch|desc=|link=node|align=left| width=300]Tried this…
[img_assist|nid=20918|title=1|desc=|link=node|align=left|width=300]Now this…
[img_assist|nid=20919|title=2|desc=|link=node|align=left|width=300]Don’t know how it happened. Maybe it’s hereditary. Maybe it was because when I was kid, I kicked a pole pretty hard with a roundhouse kick during martial arts sparing class when the guy I was sparing with moved and I missed… Maybe my shoes are too narrow…Well, they definitely are too narrow now…
Damn, gotta lay off the red high heel pumps…But seriously, I don’t were dress shoes most of the time. Mostly running shoes.
Oh, and I think I’m flat-footed and my shoes tend to wear uneven with the insides wearing down much faster.
June 1, 2015 at 9:51 PM #786920ParticipantOn a scale of 1 to 10 how much does it hurt
June 1, 2015 at 11:11 PM #786922CoronitaParticipant[quote=scaredyclassic]On a scale of 1 to 10 how much does it hurt[/quote]
Maybe a 3 if I kick something by accident, or if I put on my pumps, err… I mean sneakers…… If I’m barefoot, it’s not an issue unless I’m on my tiptoes doing my daily ballerina thing….
June 2, 2015 at 2:11 AM #786923ParticipantHave you checked with other podiatrists?
June 2, 2015 at 6:23 AM #786924ParticipantI think that NY times article says no surgery til it’s a 7.
Maybe foot can naturally relax with room.
