"People need to know that it
is not normal for their feet to hurt, no matter how much they walk
or stand. Pain is the body's way of telling us something is wrong.
Some conditions are easily treated when they first occur. It is very
important to seek the help of a doctor rather than live with foot
and ankle pain." |
