Why Do Hardwood Floors Hurt My Feet

Like many design fiends i adore the look of hardwood floors.

Why do hardwood floors hurt my feet.

A week ago i was running and fell on our tile floor and landed on my bunion on my right foot which is a pretty large. Hardwood is hard on some bodies. With bunions a firm painful bump develops at the base of the big toe sometimes causing that toe to veer diagonally toward the second toe. Place a comfy pair of slippers near the door if you need a reminder.

The symptoms are quite clear. However in some people constantly walking or standing barefoot on surfaces like hardwood floors tile or marble puts too much stress on structures of the feet either causing or exacerbating. I have hardwood floors but chalked up my foot lower back pain to getting older cheap shoes. I now wear my chacos for housework shopping in the studio even light hiking and they have made all the difference.

Flooring that s easy on the joints. Because the heels tend to be pointier and the body s weight isn t evenly distributed they leave dents in the floor particularly stiletto heels. Perhaps your customers come in frequently telling you their joints hurt from standing or walking on their hard tile or hardwood floors. If your feet hurt from walking on a wood floor then there s something wrong with your feet.

Most of us have walked on flooring perhaps at a friend s house at work or while on vacation that left our feet and knees sore later. I have had plantar fasciitis and if that is your problem you must wear firm shoes that do not have any torque to them not flip flops. Do your floors a favor and leave the heels at the door. Bunions can get worse if you consistently wear too.

At a friend s recommendation i purchased a pair of chaco flip flops i swear by them. But i have since learned a lesson that was painful and it s a pretty simple one. Wow something is wrong here. So much so in fact that i took my most recent home because of the rare looking redwood they used when it was first built in the 1930s.

Wearing high heels around the house is a great way to ruin hardwood floors. I have been walking on the side of my foot but have used crutches for walking outside hurts w shoe. One thing about pf is it will take about a year to go away whether you treat it or not. When you get out of bed in the morning you feel a great pain when you put your foot on the floor.
