Orthotics can: Help but you need to use them properly. Please check w/your foot doctor about how to use them and make sure you have ones appropriate for your use. Peace and good health.

Orthotic Breakin: Sorry for your problem. Typically you want to break in slowly, as there should never be pain. When blisters form, you have a problem that needs an adjustment. Typically simple to do. See my Breakin handout. Dr Rich Blake http://www.drblakeshealingsole.com/2010/03/breaking-in-orthotic-devices.html
