I have pretty advanced arthritis in my feet, right foot worst since this is the side of body I had a hip replacement. Many complications from that surgery. Including knee OA worsened. I just came out of a hospital/rehab situation for 4.5 months due to staph infection which went undetected for 2.5 months by doctors.

Anyway the last rehab I was in, I was taught to put tennis balls in a sock and roll my foot on those balls to a count of how long can go. I'll think about standing on the balls. I use 3 balls in a sock. I do that before I start walking after a night's sleep and often during the day. I have I THINK nerve damage from all the OA I live with. And the hip surgery.

These balls do help with circulation and whatever else they are doing.

Thanks for bringing this up. C
