Early detection and intervention can prevent irreversible damage. Preventative foot care is as important as preventative dental care. You would not wait until you have an unbearable toothache, before you went to the dentist. Don't wait until you are in severe pain before you find out how your feet are functioning. The foot contains one quarter of all the bones in the body.
Some people have extra small bones called accessory ossicles.
The extra bones seldom cause problems and are thought to be hereditary. The mobile foot helps you adapt to certian ground surfaces. The foot is a ridgid leaver that propels the body forward. The foot absorbs most of the shock your body receives while you are on your feet. That is 3,650,000 times a year or approximately 292,000,000 in a life time.
