WHEN NECESSARY
IF SOMEONE HAS POOR CIRCULATION IN
THEIR FEET GENERALLY, I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD
BE REFERRED TO A VASCULAR SPECIALIST. IF SOMEONE HAS SWOLLEN FEET, THEY SHOULD BE TOLD IF THEY
ELEVATE THEIR FEET TOO HIGH, THIS COULD IMPAIR CIRCULATORY FLOW TO THIER FEET. MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, DO NOT
RELY ON ANY ADVICE FOR TREATMENT FROM THIS SITE. BE SEEN IN PERSON BY A
PODIATRIST OR A MEDICAL DOCTOR THAT IS LICENSED TO TREAT THE FEET.
BIOMECHANICAL FAULTS CAN ALSO CONTRIBUTE
TOWARDS A
WORSENED FOOT ULCERATION.
Sites below are related to topics other than foot ulcers:
GENERALLY A GAIT ANALYSIS AND A
STATIC EXAM CAN BE USED IN FORMING A TREATMENT PLAN TO ADDRESS
BIOMECHANICAL FAULTS IN THE
FOOT. SUCH FAULTS IN THE FOOT CAN AFFECT OTHER
BODY PARTS. PROPERLY PLACED FELT SOMETIMES CAN BE USED IN THE SHOE TO
ATTEMPT TO TREAT FAULTY FOOT FUNCTION, AND
IF NECESSARY EVEN CUSTOM MOLDED ORTHOTICS CAN BE UTILIZED.

Not only
do I suggest propper foot orthotics when podiatrically indicated, but I
want my patients to have propper fitting shoes. wide sneaker has
helped out some of my patients.
Without propper fitting shoes, I feel foot orthotic generally cannot do what they are suppossed to do.

REGARDING MY OPINIONS ON
FOOT ORTHOTICS:
IT IS IMPORTANT TO
SEE A PODIATRIST BEFORE
GETTING ANY CUSTOM MOLDED ORTHOTIC.
A
PODIATRIST CAN GENERALLY PERFORM A BIOMECHANICAL EXAM AND GAIT ANALYSIS
AND PRESCRIBE A CUSTOM MOLDED FOOT ORTHOTIC. BY TAKING A CAST OF THE
FOOT IN IT'S OPTIMUM POSITION AND PRESCRIBING THE PROPPER ORTHOTICS
NEEDED IS AN ATTEMPT TO TRY TO TREAT VARIOUS FOOT PROBLEMS. THERE ARE
NO GUARANTEES. SOMETIMES ORTHOTICS CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL
WHEN PRESCRIBED AND CASTED BY A PODIATRIST. FOR EXAMPLE I USED AN
ORTHOTIC THAT WAS CALLED THE STJ HEEL SPUR SPECIAL FOR HEEL PAIN AND
WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS. SOMETIMES ORTHOTICS DO NOT WORK. SOMETIMES I REFER MY PATIENTS TO
SEE CERTIFIED PEDORTHISTS.
