What could I wear on the other foot to balance my walking and avoid hip pain?

Something like a hiking boot ie.Timberland boot. I wore a hiking boot which has a wedge heel sort of.

I wore a tall lace up boot With an insole on the other foot. A tall lace up leather boot is in effect a modest ankle brace, so, this did three things. One, it equalized the height of both ankles at the heel. You can adjust the height by swapping insoles till its right. Second, the stiff tall boot on the good foot helped match the walking stride of the good leg to the injured one, eg. Restricted it a bit. Third, it gives you a pair of tall lace up boots to contineu wearing to protect your ankle in the contunuing healing process, which takes a year or two to get it right. I Wear a different shoe in a different style every day, going barefoot on Sunday. :) after church. This helps keep your mustles balanced and growing stronger. Its a process, all the best to ya.

yes; this would work for either foot. my "l" foot is the one with the "real need" for it though and it works like a charm; i love it!

Yes. The fabric in the hip area is very stretchy so it doesn't inhibit movement.

I stand on it with thin socks. It has helped tremendously with my back pain. Takes getting used to though.

Hello Shelia, Yes it can be worn on your left foot. I wear it on my left foot..

I put them in both shoes...right and left. Seems to be neutral and functional for both feet....helps relieve pain. These were recommended by my podiatrist and I carry two extra in my purse, just in case my neuroma needs relief.

I also have PF in both feet, one worse than the other. I purchased only one because I wanted to make sure it was comfortable before purchasing 2. Now I just alternate when needed. My feet tend to fall asleep with it, but it definitely helps with the pain. I hope this answer helps!

For shoe comfort, make sure you have a shoe with a large toe box like some new balances. Also, it would be wise to have them on if you go and try on new shoes.

Yes and No...I think it will help but you should also add something stronger to it. I wear my during the day with shoes, I hope this helps

Doubtful. I've tried it on my foot and it doesn't seem to make good enough contact. My wife has this condition and the only thing that seems to help is the boot designed to help stop the pain. There is also a sleeping boot available. Both are available by prescription.

First of all, if your mom has pain, she probably should see a podiatrist. She may have specific issues with her feet that call for orthotics, or other treatment. For maximum cushioning (which I desire, as I have back problems) I start with a good cushioning shoe like a New Balance. I then use *two* insoles, starting with the Spenco Polysorb Cross Trainer on the bottom and *this* sole (Syono Orthotics Gel) on top. The combination gives me maximum cushioning while adapting to my foot, and I can and do walk an average of 5 miles per day (fast exercise walk) with no problems.

These go in the heel side of existing shoes; I use them in the left shoe only since my left leg is 6 mm shorter than my right leg. Compensation of differences in leg length can help avoiding back problems.

You can, but have to walk stiff legged as it does not allow the ankle to bend, they have helped my Plantar Fasciiitis though. I have been wearing them for about 8 years now.

I just clip my Fitbit One to my bra. Rarely does it show under my blouse, but if it does, I just turn it around (facing me vs. facing out). This position works great for me. I guess you could also try wearing it on the hip of your lower intimates, but I'd personally worry about losing it.

I actually wrap them around my ankles, or right above. Then in my routine, I walk sideways. I admit, I'm still on the "light" band! And I do feel the work being done for the outer hip area as well as the upper thighs. Fantastic workout.

No, it rests on your shoulder with the other end on your opposite hip. I wear two to balance them out and double my capacity.
