A member asked:

I wear out the inside of the heel on my walking shoes, any ideas on what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: You are not walking in a neutral manner but probable supinated. See a podiatrist for evaluation and probably orthotic therapy.

I suspect I fractured my small toe 5 years ago, I feel pain when I walk barefoot on the bone underneath the toe and this causes me to shift my weight onto the other side of my foot. Problem is not as bad when I wear tackies or shoes ?
