Recent studies show that for those suffering from pain due to arthritis in the knees, going barefoot may alleviate some of that pain.
Many stability shoes (often recommended to those with arthritis) have a raised heel. It is this raised heel that may be the cause of more pain in the knees of the arthritic.
I’d recommend you try walking around your home barefoot a little more often – you may find that it helps with that chronic arthritis pain!
