What can cause Foot Pain?
There can be many possible reasons for your foot pain. When you come to us, we work with you to help discover the root cause before we begin treatment.
Some factors that often play a role in foot pain are:
- Excessive strain
- Standing for too long
- Being overweight
- Injuries to nerves in the feet (can cause burning pain, numbness, and tingling)
- Poor-fitting footwear
