"Our feet support and balance our body weight and hundreds of tons of force every single day. The toes, heel, and ball of the foot must work together to set you in motion, which is why problems can arise if one of those parts is injured. Foot injuries and problems are common, and recognizing when to seek medical attention is key to a successful recovery," says Dr. Gretel Crison from Davis Hospital and Medical Center.   Dr. Gretel Crison     "It's time to see a podiatrist if you have swelling that lasts for more than a day or two, that can be a fracture, or if you have other pain that becomes an everyday pain that stops you from doing things such as taking a walk," says Dr. Crison.   Source: Good4Utah.com [9/13/17]   Courtesy of Barry Block, editor of PM News.     Brought to you by Doctor John A.
