Inflammation. Owies and sore spots. Toes, heel, arch who knew. Most chronic foot pain is caused by chronic misalignments; ankles, knees, my low back. Or, your arches are out of round. There are several foot arches commonly described in the literature; unfortunately there's not a lot of agreement regarding their functional }importance. 🦶😫👣💥🔄

The ball of your foot hurts. Sometimes you can pop the painful area into relief; it's usually a nerve getting pinched between two metatarsal bones. The ball of your foot has lost its arch and spring, as your foot has gotten wider and flatter. Stand Strong® arch helps to coax an arch into your foot.

But sometimes you'll feel pain from the arch support. 😖 Usually, it's as simple as repositioning the ball of foot support into a comfort zone of your foot. 🩰👣 Other times, there may be so much built up pain, stiffness, and aggravation that one should first use a pain reliever - topically, orally, massage, and physical therapy - to calm your foot pain DOWN. 💊🌡️💆‍♂️

Gradually, over a period of weeks, your feet and legs will welcome the improved alignment and function the Stand Strong® arch offers. 🕒🦶 If your tissues are stubborn like mine, that self-improvement process may take 3 or 4 weeks to get max enjoyment. 📅🌟
