Can Incontinence Pads Make Your Shoes and Heels More Comfortable? True or False?

Can incontinence pads make your shoes and heels more comfortable? 

Believe it or not, it’s TRUE! Well, kind of.

According to Wiivv’s blog, “10 Hacks to Make Your Shoes More Comfortable,” maxi pads, the thickest and bounciest ones you can find, can make your feet feel more comfortable as you pound the pavement. They provide extra padding for booties, heels, flats, or thin-soled shoes and may also absorb foot sweat. However, they are not suitable for sandals or slides and are only a temporary fix as they degrade over time.

What Tips and Tricks Work Better to Provide Pain Relief?

1. Arch Support

Arch supports put your foot in correct anatomical alignment, providing support and absorbing shock while wearing heels. They are slim enough to fit in heels, dress shoes, boots, and flats.

How to Ensure a Proper Fit:

• The arch support must have full contact with your foot without spilling over the side.
• There should be no gap between the support and your arch.
• The support should not push your arch up, as this can cause more pain.
