Orthopedic shoes for adults

The most effective way to prevent flat feet is to increase your physical activity - get more exercise and go barefoot more often. Orthopedic shoes are needed when a foot deformity is diagnosed - in this case, they should be selected under the guidance of a doctor.

Orthopedic shoes: actual benefits and possible harm

Bad feet and other deformities not only cause discomfort, but also affect overall health by affecting the spine and joints. It is difficult to correct these pathologies, so doctors pay special attention to prevention. Orthopedic shoes are often mentioned in this regard - the topic has become so popular that many parents try to use such models from the very first steps of their child. Orthopedic shoes are also very popular with adults. But are they as effective as they should be? MedAboutMe investigated whether wearing orthopedic shoes is justified and who can really benefit from them.

Do children need orthopedic shoes for prevention?

Clubfoot is the most common foot deformity, occurring in 81.5 % of patients with such problems. This pathology is best corrected in childhood, up to the age of 14-15 years it is treated with conservative methods and can be corrected without surgery. That is why it is so important that you do not waste time and help your child in good time. However, one must not forget that children's feet are formed in the first few years of life. Until the age of 5, a diagnosis such as flat feet is not made at all - the foot is still changing, and in most cases it returns to normal. Therefore, the use of therapeutic shoes for children in the first years of life, especially for children who cannot walk yet, is very controversial. These methods of correction are prescribed only in extreme cases of pronounced, often congenital, deformities, which are very rare.

As for healthy children, today orthopedists are increasingly pointing out that wearing orthopedic shoes not only does not prevent flat feet, but even harms the proper development of the foot. Because in order to form the right arch of the foot, the foot must be under constant strain - this trains muscles and strengthens joints. The rigid fit of orthopedic shoes means that the foot relaxes and does not develop its full potential.

The most effective way to prevent flat feet is to go barefoot, at least at home. It is also important that a child who is just learning to walk does not sit in a stroller or playpen for long. Walking on uneven ground such as pebbles, tiles or special mats is also helpful.

Appropriate footwear for the street is a model with the following characteristics:

Types of orthopedic shoes for the elderly

Adult orthopedic shoes are divided into three types:

  1. Highly complex shoes. For the elderly with leg injuries, after surgery or amputation;
  2. Medium weight shoes. For people with flat feet, clubfoot, valgus deformity and foot ulcers.
  3. Prophylactic shoes. The most versatile version of orthopedic shoes, with many variations: shoes for the elderly with diabetes, valgus deformity, arthritis, rheumatism, hammer toes, etc.

Prophylactic shoes can be purchased at any orthopedic specialty store. High and medium orthopedic shoes are made only to order in special factories or factories.

What should be considered when choosing orthopedic shoes?

Like regular shoes, orthopedic shoes are divided into two types: inner shoes and outer shoes. Inner shoes should be carefully adjusted to the size of the foot (just like summer shoes). Winter and mid-season shoes can be half a size larger to keep feet comfortable with thick tights or socks. Let's discuss in more detail the most important criteria for choosing shoes:

  • Trying on the shoes in the morning. Since older people, who are prone to swelling of the lower limbs, usually have swollen feet in the evening, it is better to schedule a visit to the shoe store in the morning to choose the right orthopedic shoes;
  • When trying them on, remember to get up and walk a few steps. When buying winter shoes and shoes in half sizes, make sure that the foot does not slip in the shoe;
  • Their soles should be hard, non-slip, well-laced, or made of polyurethane;
  • To avoid blisters, you should pay attention to shoes with a firm and padded heel;
  • Older people who are prone to swelling should buy shoes with insoles in the cuff in winter and in the transitional period. Such insoles make it easier to close the shoes when the foot is swollen.

To ensure that orthopedic shoes last for many years and become your 'favourite pair', it is important to look out for models made from natural materials when buying them.

Orthopedic shoes for children and adults

Wearing orthopedic shoes is a good idea if walking causes pain. They are needed when walking in regular shoes causes fatigue and pain in the muscles or bones of the feet. Since foot pain can affect people of all ages and genders, orthopedic shoes have been developed for both children and adults.

In addition to shoes, there are other useful orthopedic aids. Orthopedic socks are sometimes enough to relieve tension and discomfort in the lower leg. Orthopedic slippers are useful to wear at home. Wearing orthopedic shoes can provide additional ankle and foot support that traditional footwear cannot.

Orthopedic shoes and style

Today, orthopedic shoes are available in a wide range of colors, to the delight of both adults and children. The wide range of colors makes it possible to choose shoes that easily fit into a person's usual style of clothing.

There are several features that characterize almost all orthopedic shoes. The heels are usually sturdier and lower than many other types of shoes. The wide forefoot helps eliminate pressure on the toes, and the stable heel and ankle support it with increased efficiency.

This allows for a variety of orthopedic insoles that offer comfort and support to the individual.

Additional Details – Orthotics

Orthopedic shoes can be supplemented with padded inserts in the area of the inner arch of the foot. The insoles in shoes for people with flat feet are made of leather or polymeric materials. They are hypoallergenic and absorb moisture very well.
