A 2018 survey of nearly 1,300 adults conducted by the American Podiatric Medical Association found that as many as 75% of those surveyed had some issue with their feet, ranging from the troublesome (such as excess sweating, odor, or nail problems) to the painful (such as bunions or stress fractures). Half of those surveyed said they have foot problems that are severe enough to limit their activity in some way. One of the biggest problems when it comes to foot pain is that no one knows what to do or who to talk to about it. This is where podiatry comes in.
