i had to go to the podiatrist and get orthopedic inserts for my feet because i have rsd spreading to my feet now as well as my hands and arms and legs and pretty much the rest of my body now and also have bone spurs in both heels (and my right foot turns purple and cold sometimes) too since i got rsd. the inserts along with a footed cane help keep my from falling (at least most of the time.) my ankles and hips give out sometimes and the rsd is causing my toes to swell and i am unable to straighten them on my right foot but the inserts and cane help ease the pain and give me a little more support. good shoes also help. i wear only clarks shoes. very comfy with good support. hope your feel start to feel better soon. maybe a podiatrist can help you out too. soft hugs.
