Different sports put different demands on your
body. The repetitive impact of distance running, the twisting
and jumping of basketball, and the shifting of skiing require
your feet and ankles to adjust differently to your weight.
Custom made sport orthotics tailored to your specific activity
can help keep you injury free. Many professional athletes
rely on custom orthotics to keep them at the top of their
game. Chicago Podiatric Surgeons offers an array of styles
that can be custom fit to you and your needs.
A physical examination of the feet and the way
they function is critical to a proper diagnosis. Subtle differences
in the symmetry of the feet can be big clues as to what is
happening under the surface. A simple walk down the hallway
may be all that is needed to perform a gait analysis that
can reveal a whole source of potential problems. These evaluations
may be especially telling when a problem seems to only exist
during a certain activity.
