Have you ever experienced numbness in a toe the day after wearing heels for 8ish hours?

Just deciding if I need to contact a doctor.

Nope. That only occurs if you have a penis. :biggrin:

I always wore high heels until I overdid the running and got plantar fasciitis. Prior to that, no pain with high heels. Plus I liked being almost as tall as Big D.;-)

After that my ex-podiatrist said to wear flats. :( That has been so not me, but the pain convinced me to comply. My new podiatrist just told me that kitten heels are better than flats. It opens up a whole new world of shoe shopping. Can't wait until the hooker shoes (4-inch stillettos on a platform with big, fugly, round toes) are out of style. :twisted:

Why are you wearing heels? I thought you were a man with a penis fetish. Was this for Halloween? Maybe you need to go to a kitten heel like Michelle Obama is wearing for the tall girls.

are you better my little pretty?

wear your very best orthopedic tennis shoes daily to give your feet a break. go get a foot massage. soak in epsom salt/warm water. splurge on a pedicure. your footsies will soon be all better.

I would only be concerned if you have cramps, bloating, and you are in a pissy mood today.

I'd look for more heels that are comfortable. I only wear the hot-looking uncomfortable ones for short periods of time- I try them on at the store, admire myself for a minute or two, then put them back. Try a pair of hot-looking boots that are comfortable. Hot AND comfortable is the ticket- you just have to look a little longer and they don't necessarily have to be expensive. Also, in heels, depending on the shoe, go up a half size or full size for swelling. If the shoe is a 5 inch mega-ho, you may want to get a smaller size than what you normally wear so that it fits like a horses hoof. :D You could also invest in professional dance shoes- just add a street bottom instead of a dance floor sole. Try to get your heels in a wider width, that also may help. Rock on wild one. :D

You're fine - your feet just aren't used to it, you wore cheap shoes, and concrete is even worse. :roll:

Keep whining and next year we'll make you wear an underwire or something w/ boning. ;-)
