What can I put inside my shoes to help with foot pain if I stand 8 hours a day?
Asked 4 years ago
I work in production so I stand for 8 hours. My foot pain starts after 30 mins of it. What are some good shoes or something to put inside my shoes to help me not be in horrible pain? Also, I still don't know why I have horrible foot pain.

Firstly, you could consult with a podiatrist. Secondly, choose comfortable, lightweight, sturdy shoes with sufficient support and cushioning. Finally, and perhaps the most important thing to do if you're on your feet all day is to get custom-made orthotics to insert in your shoes for foot support and to reduce strain on your muscles.

Shoes with proper cushioning and support as well as custom orthotics will prove helpful. if pain persists, please consult a podiatrist.
