Momber of thie Ontario Socety of Chlropodlots ami The. 0sftario Collage of Chiropodlata With the colder weathef quickly approaching we ail must make changes in our lives. We stant 10 wear heavier clothing, often in layers, adding weight on our feet. Our shoes change to boots, which are heavier. Our activity level often decreases with our inability 10 walk due to the climate. This may sound like old news, however, this is often the lime of the year peo- pie develop foot problems. Many of us would agree that our activity levels decrease in the winter months. How might this pose a problen? Our feet are a very complex structure with twenty-six bones as sel as numerous tendons and ligaments. When we are not as active the the soft tissues silI tighten. If you have sot been active for ashile and go for that mile salk, as injury may result if you do flot stretch. Also, a change from shoes 10 boots is oftes nec- essary. This means more seight and sot sîssys more support. This silI fatigue the soft tissue sn feet and loser limbs. When adding the extra cloîhes for warmth, you are adding further strain os the foot until something gives up. lt's sot usually the shoes! This sili often account for arch pain, heel pain, bunios for- mation, neuromas (pisched nerves) and may cause havoc tip isto the ksees and hips. Stretching is vital for strenuous activi- ties. Supportive shoes & boots silI belp prevent these possible problems. If you are doisg indoor athletics, it is vital that you wear appropriate shoes and stretch before activity. Masy prob- lems arise this time of year and are easily treated if the diagnosis is dose early after the symptoms arise. B.A., B.S.W., M.S.W., C.S.W., DtP. SOC. ADM.
