How long do soft orthotics last?
I want to get myself a pair of OTC orthotics to see if they will help with the knee pain I have been experiencing. However, when I went to the shop the other day, they only had soft orthotics. I'm concerned that these won't last long. So, I figured I'd ask the orthotic community. What is the general lifespan of soft orthotics, and when can I expect to replace them?Asked 2 years ago
