Running injuries are caused by a rapid training increase
As a runner, you are likely to have an injury at some point throughout your lifetime. That’s because running puts a lot of stress on your body. Of course, the issue is not with the running. It’s more about your movements and training frequency. This is particularly true in the case of chronic injuries (problems that build up over time. These are not the same with acute injuries. They happen because of a specific incident, like tripping over a branch and spraining your ankle.)
It may indicate peripheral neuropathy if your feet feel as if they are covered in wax
One of the most frequent complaints I get from my patients is that their feet are numb. Furthermore, this is not the “typical” numb that sometimes affects many of us. People describe the numbness as feeling like they are wearing many pairs of socks, even when they aren’t. The sensation is similar to having wax covering their feet. Although not painful, this is obviously not okay.
Sure, he’ll fit those shoes for years, but they’ll harm his feet
As a mom of two, I know how pricey shoes can be. Every time you turn around, it seems that one of the children’s shoes has either become too tiny or worn-out. It implies that you must spend money on yet another pair. So, I know how tempting it can be to try to squeeze feet into shoes that still sort of fit. Or to buy shoes that provide kids’ feet “room to grow,” i.e. shoes that are one or two sizes bigger than your child’s current size.
Going barefoot exposes the bottom of your foot to several preventable issues
I’m hoping by now all of my readers are aware that it’s not a good idea to walk with bare feet outdoors. Shoes are a necessity outside, whether you’re running through the grass, entering the locker room, or getting ready to jump into the community pool. They guard you against cuts, scrapes, germs, and that most dreaded organism: foot fungus!
Nowadays, almost every patient I see has a medical degree that Google awarded them. And, I’ll admit it, sometimes those late-night, fear-driven searches for symptoms lead to accurate, useful medical information. But other times, they don’t. If that happens, you either wind up believing you are about to die or trying home remedies for an illness you don’t truly have.
