Arch Support
What basketball sneakers have good arch support?
My son has been complaining his arches hurt when playing basketball. Any suggestions out there?
Your son might have plantar fasciitis, which is pain on the bottom/sides of the foot caused by inflammation/damage to the plantar fasciae. Does it hurt mainly in the morning?
What you can do – even if it isn’t plantar fasciitis – is to buy arch supports. They’re small, brown, elastic bands that go around the arch of the foot that help treat arch pain and plantar fasciitis. Also, ice and self-medicate with anti-inflammatory medications, like ibuprofen. He should also avoid walking barefoot and take it easy for a few days.
Shoe-wise, many specialized sports stores will actually fit your son’s foot to his shoe. I’m not sure where you can go for basketball, but maybe even a running store would be able to help.
Good luck, and I hope he feels better!
