Why do àll my shoes hurt?

Ever since I was little up to today I have loved shoes and whilst I don't own an enormous amount (ten pairs) I do have a nice variety. However no matter which style: ballerina, trainer, wedge, stiletto, boot, kitten heel etc they always kill me for ages and by that I mean: bloody open blisters on heels, bloody sides of feet, bloody toes, not to mention cramp in feet.


Now I have had them measured so I know which sizes to look for in various brands/styles but nothing helps.


For all this mangling (and believe me they have been bloody festering messes *enjoy your dinner btw*) once healed they are soft as baby bottoms, not a mark on them from any of the wounds.


I don't understand my feet!

Why do àll my shoes hurt?
Shoes are fitted 2 ways, first for length, and for width. So you may find a shoe long enough, but not wide enough so of course it is going to hurt. As for me I hate shoes and go barefoot 24/7

Anything else we can help you with?
Reply:I would think that you aught to see a foot doctor (I can't spell


the proper name....begins with a chir..I think.)
Reply:I don't really know why this could be happening...


Maybe you could look for softer shoes, or start wearing thick socks or plasters/bandages on your feet in the areas where the worst cuts occur.


Get fitted for shoes in the store where you buy your shoes from, and maybe ask for advice in a shoe shop about finding the perfect shoes for you.


Look or feel inside your shoes for seams or material or anything that sticks out that could be rubbing you or giving you cuts.


Before you wear any new shoes out, try wearing them in the house for a while to stretch them and make them more comfy.


I don't know if this is even possible, but if you can get shoes fitted especially for your feet or anything, try that! Maybe you could so some research on that or ask around.
Reply:in the summer ur feet expand from the heat. If ur realli worried go see ur local GP.
Reply:You could try going barefoot in and outside of the house occasionally, on rough surfaces but not where there could be glass/needles, to toughen up your feet. This also strengthens muscles in your feet and ankles and trains you to walk more properly, as most people who wear shoes all the time don't step correctly.
Reply:You may have had your feet measured for a shoe fitting, but your description reads like the shoes you have don't fit.





If you have been measured for length and width, there is always the 'depth' of your instep, which is kind of critical, and the shape of the bit behind your ankle, which can in about 20 minutes give me a painful blisters, if the shoes aren't the right shape.





I've always had trouble finding shoes that fit, so I got to 'shoe ware houses', rather than shoe shops - the 'sales' people seem totally incompetent anyway, so don't take their ' experienced advice'. Measurements at a shops also seem to 'vary between' measurements - as if the measurement isn't done properly - yours may well be wrong...





My tip would be to go to a 'shoe warehouse' and try on 10 or 20 pairs fairly quickly, if you find something that does hurt, look for more shoes the same shape. Keep on whatever doesn't hurt for 5 minutes, if they still don't hurt, keep then on for longer. Eventually you should be able to recognise shoes that won't hurt, just by their size and shape.
Reply:because you just where it only in a few days, u need to wear it everyday so the leather can be softer.
Reply:no pain. no gain.
Reply:be aware you will have the shoe cruelty police after you
Reply:What styles are you wearing? I'm a size eleven, but many times I've had to settle for a ten, or go barefoot. However, with me being 22 weeks pregnant, I will only go for an 11. Period. Also, I'm MUCH, MUCH more comfortable in my loafers and sneakers than what I am in my heels, which is why I will only wear my heels for a couple of hours on Sunday morning for church. Well, I have a shorter pair of heels that are also wider that I can walk almost normally in. I'm taking those with my to NYC next week. Even then, it's just when we go to a couple of dinners and plays.





Also, with the style of heels today, I don't know how any woman can walk in them, let alone be comfortable. High, skinnier than a pencil heels, pointy toes. The two times I tried on shoes like that in stores, I could barely walk a couple of steps, let alone feel comfortable. Yesterday, I saw a woman wearing high wedge heels, taking stiff, small steps. If I "have to" take steps like that in shoes, it's not worth it for me. Comfort supercedes fashion.





However, if it is a medical problem, try and see a podiatrist (sp?) if you can afford it. Also, I thnk it's a chain, but in Columubs, OH, there is a store, Good Feet, that specializes in "problem" feet (for lack of better word).
Reply:It's probably your baby soft skin that is causing the problem. Dancers sometimes soak their feet in sugrical spirit to toughen them up when they are doing pointe....you could try that. (Otherwise, you will just have to keep buying shoes until you find some that are comfortable!)
Reply:maybe you buy dose shoes whose size is smaller dan yours dear!!!!!
Reply:See a chiropodist, they deal with feet. You could be allergic to leather or something
Reply:Maybe you need a better grade of shoe. Also, have you mentioned this to your doctor maybe he could recommend a podiatrist for you to help solve this problem.
Reply:try buying a bigger size shoe than you usually do, also try buying shoes that are a little wider so that your feet have space inside to move if not go see a doctor that deals with feet
Reply:My sister had a simular problem when she was younger have you considered going to the doctors about it? she had eczema on her feet because she was allergic to the dye in shoes and never wore socks, she had to go to a dermotoligist and eventually grew out of it
