    I have house shoes (that I only wear inside) because orthotics don’t fit in slippers

      Orthotics are probably no better than a placebo for some conditions.

      “Conclusions: Foot orthoses are not superior for improving pain and function compared with sham or other conservative treatment in patients with PHP.”

        After talking to my GP and talking to the specialist she recommended, this was the treatment plan that we decided on and it’s been working well. Thank you for your assumptions and condescension.

          Wasn’t intended to be condescending or even specifically about you. Sorry, thought that was clear as it’s only about a particular condition and you hadn’t mentioned what your condition was.

          Just something that I came across a while ago that I found interesting.
