My foot doctor recommended Hoka shoes and it has worked for the past 2 years. Still can't go barefoot which I have always loved to do.

Injection immediately got rid of mine. I'd do it again in a heartbeat, but please know that it is a very painful injection. Short term pain for long term gain.

Be well.

Perhaps. But there's no way I'm going to wear a tea-length formal gown with a pair of sneakers or Birkenstocks. Just isn't gonna happen.

Orthotics were made in Massachusetts 35 years ago. I was told they would last 10 years- I still have them. Just Google Custom Orthotics and doctors should come up. $300 35 years ago. I'd be surprised if they were too much more than that now. You can try Dr. Scholl' s Orthotics- from the pharmacy. They usually have a chart where you select the proper type based on the location of your pain.

I use a carpenters pencil when getting painful shots. It is flat and makes it easy to bite down on.
