Why Do My Feet Hurt?
Our feet are the reason we can run marathons, get through long workdays, and even walk the aisles of the grocery store. When our feet hurt, it can be difficult to keep doing the things we love and live our daily lives.
Foot pain often comes from a lack of support in your everyday shoes. However, there could also be underlying conditions causing pain in your arch, ball of your foot, ankles, knees, and lower back. Proper foot care can help address painful foot conditions.
