Flip Flop Fun

Flip Flops Heel Pain

Flip Flops Heel Pain
Please help?

If I stand up for a long period of time, my heels will start to hurt really bad to the point where I have to sit down. I'm only 13, aren't I too young to be getting this kind of pain? My mom says I have achilles tendinitis, from wearing flip flops all the time. She says she will make me a doctors appt. What will the doctor do?

And one more question, in the past 2-3 weeks, when I wake up my left shoulder hurts like crazy, and it's not just because I sleep on it, because I ALWAYS sleep on it. And it still hurts even when I don't sleep on it. What does this sound like?
Also, my feet are always red. Could this have anything to do with the achilles tendinitis?
You guys are no help. I don't know when my mom can take me. We don't have a doctor yet, and we just moved here, and are very busy.
Why would I have a pinched nerve on BOTH feet??

Your mom is right. It sounds like plantar fasciitis& yes it is from wearing flip-flops (or flats) all the time.I've had it.It may also be the beginning of shin splints. Are you a runner or soccer player?Get really good running shoes. The Dr. will give you some stretching exercizes to (sort of like doing push-ups & lunges while standing up facing a wall).They're easy to do & you will start feeling better right away.He may tell you to get an arch support for your shoes. Wear them. He will probably tell you to cut out the flip-flops for a while. as for your shoulder-maybe you need a new pillow.
