Myth vs Fact: “Foot Pain Is Just Part of Getting Older”

Myth: Foot pain is a normal part of aging and something you just have to live with.

Fact: While our feet do change as we age, ongoing foot pain is often caused by treatable conditions such as plantar fasciitis, arthritis, nerve irritation, or tendon problems.

Ignoring foot pain may lead to changes in how you walk, which can eventually affect your knees, hips, and back.

The good news is that many foot problems can be successfully treated once the cause is identified.

If your feet hurt when walking, standing, or getting out of bed in the morning, it may be time to have them evaluated.
