The Pros And Cons Of Over The Counter Orthotics

By Brenda Warner


There are many people who are looking for ways to find relief for their foot problems. To do this, they usually look to over the counter orthotics as a way to cope with issues like heel spurs and overpronation. However, not all of these products work in the way they should especially if a person does not know what to get. Here are the pros and cons of using these types of products.

Not everyone can afford to purchase the higher price custom-made products that one will find at the doctor's office. There are many products sold at specific sections of a drugstore or pharmacy which costs much less. It is a cheaper way to get the help one needs as oppose to spending over one hundred dollars for a custom design product.

There is also the fact that these items are easy to access. A person can go to the drugstore and get the product they believe they need to help with their situation. They do have to set an appointment with a foot doctor or wait for a custom-made foot care product. This is one of the reasons why they are so popular with an entire section in the store dedicated these items.

There are many different products available. Most people can find many different products for needs that vary from problems with arches to calluses. There are also inserts for different types of shoes that a person might wear. This makes it very convenient for the public to get the help they need. However one should also be aware of the disadvantages of these types of ready-made products.

On the other hand, a person has to be aware of the issues they might face when purchasing ready-made foot care items. They might not work as effectively as products that are designed by a specialist who has taken the time to know what a person needs. A product from the store is generic and while it might be made to solve a problem, the quality might not be the same.

They do not last as long as the custom-made foot care products. Due to the quality of the materials that are used, certain items do not last as long as those that are custom-made. This is not to say that one cannot find well made products at a drugstore, but it is something to consider when making a decision to get foot care products that are worth the money.

Ready-made products might not be suitable for unique foot problems. This could also be true for custom-made products due to a problem being misdiagnose because it has never been seen before. On the other hand, a person has a better chance of finding a solution than going to a store to get a product that was designed for many different people.

These are a few of the advantages and disadvantages that one may or may not experience when purchasing foot care products in stores. It is important to do the research for one's particular issue so that the right decision can be made. One can also visit a professional who will be able to provide the right information due to his or her extensive knowledge on the subject.
