Dr. Jill's Foot Pads was founded by a professional Podiatrist, Dr. Jill Scheur. Each season brings its own unique foot care issues. Summertime means changes in footwear and activities that can lead to annoying foot problems.
Hurting Heels
Summer invites people to walk barefoot or wear flip flops. Both can result in flattening arches which leads to heel pain due to stress on the plantar fascia. If flip flops are your choice, invest in a pair with built-in arch support. For other styles, consider adding Gel Arch Pads or a Gel Heel Cup.
Corns, Calluses and Blisters
Strappy sandals that rub in new places, plus increased friction from perspiration, equals irritation. Bunions and hammertoes may face new pressure sources. Protect your feet with Foam Callus Pads, Gel U-Shaped Pads, and Gel Callus Cushions. Stop blisters with our Moleskin Sheets, which can be cut to fit any sore spot.
Whatever summer brings, we can help. Call (866) FOOT-PAD (366-8723).
