Walking boots advice
I'm suffering from increasing pain in my ankles and feet. I take Naproxen all the time which helps a bit but I really want to be able to walk a lot more and am looking for advice on suitable footwear.. something with good ankle support. Any suggestions will be welcome.😊

Hi scrumpyjax
Thank you for posting on the forum, I am sorry to hear about the pain in your ankles and feet and am wondering if you’ve seen a podiatrist, if not this maybe a good idea. They are qualified foot experts and can also advise with regards to footwear. You can speak to your GP about a referral to a podiatrist.
You could also try the Disabled Living foundation who may be able to offer impartial advice about footwear.
If at any point you would like to talk things through please give us a ring on our freephone helpline: 0800 5200 520 (weekdays 9am – 8pm), here we can take our time to talk informally and in confidence.
I hope this is of some help.
Best wishes
