Today I saw a podiatrist..for years I have been complaining the way I walk is uncomfortable and just doesn't feel right. Getting the plantar faciitis finally convinced me to make an appointment. When reading about plantar faciitis, I came across the term
overpronation, which definitely explained my discomfort. The podiatrist definitely confirmed I have overpronation..the plantar faciitis feels better this week, but when the podiatrist pressed on that spot it was definitely still sore. He recommended getting custom made insoles for my shoes, which I definitely wanted to do. It won't "cure" the problem, just hopefully make it better (surgery is an option for curing it, but I really don't want to do that if the insoles will help). I'm glad I found a term that describes my discomfort..it's frustrating struggling just to walk properly! It takes two weeks or so for the insoles to be made..I can't wait to see if they work haha
