Got Foot Pain? Exercise Can Help!
I know it seems counter intuitive if you're experiencing foot pain, but lack of movement contributes to pain.
Pain in the body is a sign that this area is getting less oxygen than is needed. Pain=Lack of Circulation. Just walking around the house, walking 5 minutes to the store or chasing the kids around doesn't quite cut the mustard though.
Getting the heart pumping, breaking a sweat and really exerting yourself is key when walking for pain.
Here's my experience with foot pain. I've had it on and off for the better part of 10 years. I've had arthritis in my fingers and wrists since I was a teenager but the foot pain is newer and it can make you REALLY feel ancient! The moment I step out of bed, the balls of my feet feel like painful pillows! This was the case about 3 weeks ago and it had been going on for far too long when I started working out again.
