Shoe inserts for heel pain?

My heels begin to hurt really bad when I%26#039;ve been standing/walking for a long time. I walk military style(old habit) meaning I roll my feet, heel to toe. So my heels tak a lot of my weight.





What are some good inserts for my boots? No Dr.Scholl%26#039;s massaging gel please, I used them already, they were a joke to my feet.

This sounds a lot like plantar fasciitis. It can be caused by many things; one of the names I%26#039;ve seen for it has something to do with the ways soldiers march. That is probably how you%26#039;ve received your injury since you say this is the way you walk.





Anyway, ice the area a couple of times a day or after activities like running. Put the ice in some water. You only want to have enough to cover the part that is hurting. Wear shoes with good arch support. You also want a shoe with a rocking heel. That keeps you from putting all your weight on your heels---takes the pressure off. Stretch our your achilles heel as well.





The pads can be bought at stores carrying foot products...they are heel lifts. If you can%26#039;t find one that works for you, then try seeing a podiatrist.





Hope you start feeling better soon!
Reply:Well, i really dont know what the answer is. I was gonna recommend dr scholls, but you said it doesnt help, so i really havent got a clue.





maybe you need some insolls, like really thick ones that are cushioned, or have certain parts that have more padding. Its dificult to try and advise you, because i dont know anything that would be good for you.





You can try and go to a shoe shop, and ask them, but to tell you the truth, i dont know.
Reply:I have the same problem. Sounds like you have a heel spur. Go to a podiatrist for a cortisone shot and some anti-inflammatory pills. It works like a charm. No more pain.
