Can non-arch support in shoes cause hip pain?08/19/2008 11:37PM |
I wore arch support in my shoes most of my adult life until recently. Now I`m experiencing hip pain and numbness in my left leg. Could the pain and numbess be a result of me not wearing the arch support in my shoes any longer?
It is certainly possible that the change in support may have caused alignment issues, however it could also be simply a coincidence and a symptom of a new problem. If you still have them you may want to put the supports back in your shoes however if your symptoms are getting progressively worse or not responding I would suggest an examination.
