Generally, when one : Has a problem an orthotic is tailored to the persons problem. So knowing the issue would help make a recommendation.

Depends...: You need to determine what is causing your pain. Podiatrists will examine and treat the cause of your foot problems but can also recommend proper shoes and if inserts are needed to avoid recurrence. The inserts (aka orhtotics) may be over the counter or prescription.
