For the most painful cases, the slipped vertebra can be surgically fused to the vertebra below it. Fusion is one method by which athletes with vertebral slippage may hope to return to athletic activity, though a decrease in the level of activity may be recommended after surgery. Parents know that children's feet grow rapidly. Children often need shoes in less than the three-month interval recommended for checking their shoe size. But adults, especially mothers of newborns, are often amazed to find that, at some point in time, no matter how many styles and brands they try, shoes in their normal size do not fit.
Adult feet change due to relaxation or stretching of the foot structure.
This occurs naturally. Age, weight gain, and childbearing with or without significant weight retention are common causes. Fairly rapid changes can take place if you go barefoot or use footwear lacking support. Thongs, sandals, and slippers, especially if worn on hard surfaces for extended periods, are often to blame for changes in shoe size. Have both feet measured.
