Foot Facts
- 1/4 of all the bones in the human body ARE IN YOUR FEET. If they are out of alignment, so is the rest of your body.
- 3 out of 4 Americans experience serious foot problems in their lifetime.
- The foot contains 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments and 19 muscles.
- Only a small percentage of the population is born with foot problems.
It's neglect and a lack of awareness of proper care - including ill fitting shoes - that bring on problems. - Women have about four times as many foot problems as men. High heels are partly to blame.
- Arthritis is the number one cause of disability in America. It limits everyday dressing, climbing stairs, getting in and out of bed or walking - for about 7 million Americans.
- There are 250,000 sweat glands in a pair of feet. Sweat glands in the feet excrete as much as a half-pint of moisture a day.
- The two feet may be different sizes. Buy shoes for the larger one.
