Anyone know about feet? Bunions, flat feet, etc?
Okay I am only 23 - I have bunions, heel spurs, and flat feet :( I can only wear the flattest of shoes, any sort of arch in a shoe makes my "fallen arches" swell massively. I am a hairdresser and am on my feet all day. Lately the big pad of my feet (under my toes) has been really tender and sore to walk on. I just have messed up feet. I havent been to the foot doctor because its expensive as are orthopedics, etc. Does anyone have any advice? Do you think orthopedics would help me? I have also thought of surgery but dont know anything about it... They are just getting worse and worse and Im scared that I wont be able to walk by the time im 30!!

- Yes, the orthotic inserts might be of help to your problems. You can find some of them in the stores like at Wal-Mart but I would recommend seeing a Podiatrist. Due to the financial situation check with the city health dept to see if they offer a free health clinic that might have a Podiatrist on staff that volunteers their time so that this situation can be evaluated further to see what is going on. If not, check to see if there is a Medical School close to you because some Medical Schools have a Dept of Podiatry that can see patients that might be able to help.
