Over or Under?

A question we are commonly asked is “Should I wear my brace over or under my clothing?”

The answer is under. Braces are most effective when worn against the skin. This avoids excess slippage and helps to keep the brace in the proper position to maximize effectiveness.

Wearing a brace over clothing may seem more convenient, but be prepared for slippage and frequent readjusting.

Either way, if you ever have issues with your brace, we encourage you to give us a call. Our goal is to ensure you get the maximum benefits from wearing it.

Sore Arches in the Morning?

The plantar fascia is a band of tissue (fascia) that connects your heel bone to the base of your toes. It supports the arch of the foot and absorbs shock when walking.

Tension and stress on the fascia can cause small tears. Repeated stretching and tearing of the fascia can irritate or inflame it.

If you have Plantar Fasciitis, you may notice that you often wake up with heel pain and/or painful arches in the morning. That is because your foot tends to be in a pointed (plantar flexed) position while sleeping, which shortens the plantar fascia and a small amount of healing may occur over night in this shortened position. When taking your first steps in the morning , the foot returns to a more neutral walking position, which lengthens the Plantar fascia. When weight is applied to this tissue and the arch flattens, an aggressive lengthening event of the tissue occurs which may undo any overnight healing that took place in the tissue shortened position causing irritation and pain.

Although custom orthotics help with the underlying cause of plantar fasciitis, a night splint is helpful to keep the foot in a neutral ankle and foot position while sleeping, allowing the foot to remain in the same position both day and night. This allows the small tears to heal with the tissue in a more lengthened position, and helps prevent re-injury during the first couple of steps in the morning.

We invite you to talk to our Pedorthist to discuss how to treat your foot pain.
