Agony of de Feet

We’ve all been there… our feet hurt from the wrong type of shoes — an improper fit, the constant wearing of heels, and being overweight. These things, along with other issues, can lead to long-term foot problems such as bunions, hammer toes, heel spurs, and plantar fasciitis. 

Our feet are a complex system of bones, ligaments, nerves, and muscles that work together to enable us to walk, run, and do whatever it is we enjoy. One wrong move can throw everything out of balance. So what can you do now to avoid the agony of foot pain later? What if you are already suffering? We’ve got the answers for your tired hoofers.

Join Stewart Kamen, MD, a board-certified podiatrist at Lawrence Hospital and Foot Associates of New York, to learn about the causes of foot pain and ways to treat it. The event will be held at Lawrence Hospital Center on July 17th, from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

Find out what's happening in Bronxville-Eastchesterwith free, real-time updates from Patch.
