Is it risky to get custom orthotics without a doctor visit?
Asked 4 hours ago
I work on my feet all day and my arches are killing me. No insurance right now, so I’m thinking about ordering custom orthotics without a doctor visit. The reviews seem mixed. I don’t want to gamble on something that won’t help. Any real experiences?

Hey, I totally get where you're coming from about being on your feet all day, that arch pain is just the worst. Honestly, if your feet are really bothering you, you should deffinately think about custom orthotics. I know it feels like a bit of a gamble, but they can be a total game changer. Forget those flimsy store inserts, custom ones are made just for your feet. They really support you exactly where you need it. A lot of people find they make a massive difference for day to day comfort and keeping you from getting other aches.
