Hello,
I have a Morton's Neuroma that adds to the pain of PN, a while back my chiropractor suggested I try wearing a pair of Earth shoes. The salesperson told me to try them at home as people with an unsteady gait do not find them safe. Three times I tried them over the week end before deciding to keep them. The sole of the toe section is higher than the heel. It has an uphill sensation. I now walk more without the use of a cain as it works on the leg,thigh and abs while putting more weight on the heel and relieving the pressure on the sole section. The design has a wide toe section and is all leather and made in the USA, price 130.00. The only other shoe I wear is New Balance with a custom insole provided by the VA. I took a good pair of loafers and converted them into a comfortable pair of slippers for wearing in the house. The burning sensation of having my feet encased is something I can only relieve with Methadone, Lyrica medication. At present Iam using salicylic acid to burn away a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot.
