As the weather turns warmer, many people enjoy wearing “flip-flops” or sandals.  It’s important to choose a sandal with good arch support, especially if you have flat feet or bunions, or a history of problems such as plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, or Achilles tendonitis.  It’s also wise to choose a sandal with a thick toe area if you have stiffness or pain in your big toe joint, or have hammertoes or toes that aren’t straight.  It’s worth spending a little extra money for high quality sandals, so that you may enjoy your summer without foot pain that can cause you to avoid the activities you love.  If you have any pain or problems with your feet, call us at 586-298-1585.
