Foot pain in women can develop from a variety of unique factors. Wearing high heels often places the foot in an unnatural position, creating strain on the toes and forefoot. Pregnancy and hormonal changes can cause swelling, ligament laxity, and arch problems. Conditions such as osteoporosis increase the risk of fractures, while bunions and rheumatoid arthritis may cause chronic pain and deformity. These issues not only affect mobility, but also overall quality of life. A podiatrist can provide specialized care, from footwear advice to customized treatments. If you have foot pain, it is suggested that you promptly consult a podiatrist who can offer effective relief and treatment solutions.
