Loving My Pain Free Life

My name is Melinda Johnson and I suffered with foot pain for many years. I went to see a podiatrist and after an examination, I was told that I had heel spur syndrome. I followed the recommendations of my doctor by doing at home treatments along with physical therapy. I was amazed at how much these treatments helped my foot pain. Living with pain can have a big impact on your life and that's why I started this blog. My foot pain kept me from doing many things that I enjoy and I want to help others who are going through the same situation. As you browse through my blog, you'll learn about home treatments, medical procedures and new advancements in medicine that can help reduce pain. It is my hope that by writing this blog, you can live pain free too.

    Long-term suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, could result in the development of Barrett's esophagus.

    If you're like many runners, at least some of your runs take place on the sides of banked roads. Running on a banked surface can cause your hips to become misaligned in your pelvis, as more pressure is put on the leg towards the center of the road than the one closer to the ledge.
