Our quality of life is directly impacted by the health of our feet, but far too many of us put up with pain or discomfort. An estimated six percent of the US population see podiatrists for foot injuries, bunions, flat feet or fallen arches each year. Foot problems only increase with age, with one in three people over 65 experiencing foot pain, stiffness, or aching feet.
Dr. Brynn Ewen, doctor of podiatric medicine in Palo Alto, California, advises us not to ignore foot pain.
“There are many non-surgical options that provide real relief for foot disorders. Don’t let these problems keep you from pursuing the activities you love. ”
