if anyone can help your painful feet a podiatrist can. someone who studies just feet for four years is clearly the expert. after a careful examination and perhaps an x-ray a podiatrist will be able to make a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. this can range from getting some custom-made shoe inserts (orthotics) to anti-inflammatory medications. in some cases an x-ray may reveal changes in your feet that may be improved by a surgical procedure. either way the podiatrist is the right person to see for foot pain.
