Metatarsalgia

Metatarsalgia is a condition in which the ball of your foot becomes painful and inflamed. You might develop it if you participate in activities that involve running and jumping. Other causes include foot deformities and shoes that are too tight or too loose.

To help ease metatarsalgia pain, try these tips:

1)  Rest. Protect your foot from further injury by not stressing it.

2)  Ice the affected area.

3)  Wear proper shoes. Avoid too-tight or too-loose shoes and limit wearing of high heels. Orthopedic shoes may be necessary.  See our collection.

4)    Use a Metatarsal Wrap.  These off-the-shelf pads are placed in your shoes just ahead of the metatarsal bone to help deflect stress from the painful area. Try the goSeamless Universal Metatarsal Wrap (GS1295).

5)    Consider an off-the-shelf Orthotic with Metatarsal Pad to minimize stress on the metatarsal bones, support the heel and improve foot function.  Try the Genext Active Orthotic with Metatarsal Pad (PBO).
