Of Insoles and Joint Pain

I'd ordered a pair of insoles for my shoes last week. I thought that might help with the pain I'd been experiencing in the joint in the ball of my foot. It had started to cause ankle problems because I apparently was compensating for it.
So anyways, I learned that you really need expert help for getting the right ones. The ones I purchased nullified all the stabiltiy provided by my shoes. I ended up with sore feet and achey knees from a 3 mile run. Ugh!
I took them back to the store and was guided to the correct type. I'll be starting to break them in tomorrow. The guy tells me that it will take care of the joint issue and any and all pain. I should be aligned from head to toe. Cool!
