Feet and Shoes

I have recently completed an advanced nursing foot care course. Although I was aware of many of the foot and nail disorders, I hadn't seen many in person. Feet are generally the last and least attended to parts of a patient in the health care setting.

Curious, seeing how important they are.

But the most common cause or aggravation to conditions is vanity as displayed by the shoes we wear.

I became very aware of the effects of fashion when last year, after never having a foot problem I had a bunion and bunion surgery. I got orthotics and now generally wear shoes that are good for my feet until I can find fashionable ones that still have the features I need to treat my feet well.

I will provide some info in the coming months.
