S2E7: If your feet could talk, they’d be begging you to hear this!

Why Do Your First Steps Hurt? Common Foot Problems and Practical Fixes Waking up with sharp heel pain or sore arches and not sure what’s going on? This episode breaks down common foot issues seen in the clinic—especially among veterans and reservists dealing with repetitive marching and running—including plantar fasciitis (classic first-step morning pain), collapsing/flat feet tied to posterior tibial tendon problems, bunions (often genetic), and thick or discolored nails that may be fungus. You’ll hear simple, practical treatment options from early care like stretching, night splints, anti-inflammatories, imaging (X-ray, ultrasound, MRI), and supportive gear like heel cups, bracing, and custom orthotics, to advanced options such as injections, shockwave, radiofrequency, and surgery when conservative care fails. The conversation also covers cosmetic help for damaged nails (like Keryflex) and smart shoe choices for active jobs, boots, and even heels.

S2E6: Weight Loss is More Than the Scale: The Psychology of Change
