A member asked:
I'm pigeon toed, will this cause me any problems later on? do i need corrective shoes? i have achilles. tendinitis recently, could this be the cause?

Evaluation: I would highly recommend a lower extremity evaluation by a certified podiatrist. The in toeing could be causing stress on the achilles tendon thus resulting in inflamation.
