Foot, Ankle, Knee, Hip, and Back Problems

Do you have sore feet, ankles, or legs? Do your hips or low back hurt? Do you wear flip-flops?

If you said yes to the last question, and if you have any of the other symptoms, your flip-flops may be causing your problem(s). A study done at Auburn University shows when you walk in flip-flops, you alter your gait. This can result in foot, ankle, leg, hip, and/or lower back pain. The price of your flip-flops does not seem to matter much. The study included well-known retailers and manufacturers. Prices ranged from $5 to $50 (I’ve never seen flip-flops costing $50).

  2. I have been dealing with lower back pain for a few years now. I have had epidural shots and been treated with pain medication. My herniated disks are in the l4 l5 of the spine. Those shots didn’t last very long unfortunately…only like a week or so.
