High-Heels Linked to Long Term Ankle Pain
The types of shoes women wear, specifically high-heels, pumps, and sandals may cause future hind-foot (heel and ankle) pain, according to researchers at the Aging Research Institute of Hebrew SeniorLife. Nearly 64 percent of women who reported hind-foot pain regularly wore these types of shoes during some point of their life. Published in the journal Arthritis Care & Research, the study is one of the first to examine the association between shoe wear and foot pain.

5 Steps to Healthy Feet for Women
We often take our feet for granted - women included. Only when we get an injury or a bunion or heel pain do we realize that we rely on our two feet for just about everything, and virtually can't do without them.
So, as with every other part of our bodies from which we want to get peak and long-lasting performance, we need to take care of them. Here are some elements of how women can do that, according to Marlene Reid of the Family Podiatry Center in Naperville, Ill. ( Read more about 5 Steps to Healthy Feet for Women)

Chronic Heel Pain Eases After Radiofrequency Therapy
Applying a special radiofrequency treatment to patients with chronic heel or tendon pain significantly reduces or even eliminates their discomfort, according to a recent study. The results are important because this condition, often caused by repetitive activity such as running, drives an estimated 1 million to 2 million people to visit a doctor each year for their pain.

Expert Commentary: Dr. Steven Abramow, D.P.M., FACFAS - May 11, 2009
While it is always interesting to hear about developments in surgical techniques, the initial approach should always be an attempt to resolve the problem with as little intervention as possible. Most times problems can be resolved.
Hammertoe is a deformity of the toe, in which the end of the toe is bent downward. Hammertoe usually affects the second toe, although it may also affect the other toes as well. ( Read more about Expert Commentary: Dr. Steven Abramow, D.P.M., FACFAS - May 11, 2009)

Podiatrists Examine Better-Health Walking Regimen
Among all of the painkillers and antibiotics a podiatrist might usually prescribe, foot doctors may soon be writing prescriptions for walking as a way to improve patients’ health, if a study currently under way proves the practice to be effective.
The study, which is a 48-week pilot walking program run by 16 member doctors of the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) and funded by that group, randomly divides almost 250 patients from around the country into two groups. The first group will be provided with a walking prescription, a pedometer, a 12-week calendar to note the number of daily steps taken, and discussions with the doctor about the walking program’s benefits.

Most Neuromas Don't Need Surgery
Anyone who has experienced the shooting pain, and occasional burning, numbness and pins-and-needles sensation, of a neuroma of the foot remembers how he would have eagerly submitted to any kind of surgery to relieve the torture. But nowadays, surgery is only the most extreme intervention after three other remedies have been tried. A so-called Morton's neuroma is an abnormal fibrous growth around a foot nerve, usually in the metatarsal area between the third and fourth toes. The enlarged tissue, with the nerve in the middle, is squeezed between two metatarsal bones, producing the excruciating pain associated with the condition. It's especially agonizing when the foot is squeezed into a shoe. ( Read more about Most Neuromas Don't Need Surgery)

How Do High Heels Affect the Legs?
Scientists at Manchester Metropolitan University in Britain are asking for women who regularly wear high heels to volunteer for a study that will hopefully reveal the effect of such shoes on the leg muscles. Up to this point, research has suggested that habitually wearing stilettos two or more inches high has a negative effect on the health of women's feet and legs. But definitive proof, which this study hopes to provide, has been lacking. ( Read more about How Do High Heels Affect the Legs?)

Don't Rush Into Foot Surgery
If you have an annoying foot problem, the temptation might be to quickly choose the surgery option - especially if you're in a great deal of pain. But surgery is hardly the best course of action for everyone, according to Loan Lam, a Yale-trained podiatric surgeon in Marco, Fla. "Every person, every patient is different," Lam says. "Not everyone needs surgery. You have to take the person as a whole," including the patient's social history, financial condition, personality and medical history. ( Read more about Don't Rush Into Foot Surgery)

Orthotics Can Solve Foot Problems
Before assuming that surgery is needed, you might want to first seek aid from podiatric inserts, or orthotics, in your shoes, many experts say. "Shoes are made before the patient comes into the store, so it's very difficult to make a shoe specific for a patient, but a prescription orthotic is made specific for a patient," says Dr. Jeffrey Agricola, an Indiana podiatrist.

New Shoe Fashions a Podiatrist's Nightmare
The latest shoe fashions from the runways of Milan, London and New York perch a woman so precariously that she's in constant danger of losing her balance and taking a nasty and embarrassing fall. Not to mention the fact that her feet and toes, painfully flexed by the shoes for hours on end, could become permanently damaged. The new shoe styles have the heels of a woman's feet high off the floor, as with traditional high heels - but there's no spike or pillar to support the heel. Instead, the woman balances on her toes and balls of her feet. ( Read more about New Shoe Fashions a Podiatrist's Nightmare)
