I get some deep, achy pains in the arch of my foot and also lots of pain spreading and wiggling my toes. I finally went into an orthopedic doctor. They did a few x-rays on my foot and said I have small, stress fractures in the Metatarsal pad of my foot. I had to wear a walking boot for a month. It helped heal my foot and it felt much better. This was a few years ago unfortunately I have been on my feet a lot more lately and feel like they may be starting again. I hope you can find some relief soon. ❤️

Thank you. What type of shoes do you usually wear when you're on your feet? I used to be a Chef and found that memory foam arch support helped me.

I have had that. Mine was Plantar Fasciitis. Amazon has some really good splints you can wear at night as well as other ways of helping. I think they cost around $30.00.

I had plantar fasciitis too and my podiatrist casted inserts because I have the feet of a ballerina but not so much the body lol and it cured it I only buy ASICS because they don’t bend and support high arches and when I feel the symptoms coming back I use my inserts again and it takes care of the pain. Find a good podiatrist and hopefully things get better for you
