Just curious. are there any girls or women who do not care if the step on a bug or not? seems like some have

a hang up with it. please let me know the last bug you squashed and what shoes you were wearing and if it bothered you that you had killed him?

you dont kill anything that doesnt hurt you... be it a bug or an insect.
Reply:I care. If its by accident that's one thing, but if you do it on purpose that's entirely different.
Reply:nope. I squashed a bug 5 minutes ago on my bathroom sink.
Reply:I don't have a problem stepping on bugs, as long as I have shoes on -- wouldn't want to be barefoot.





The last bug I squished was a black spider in the basement last night. I was wearing my orange and white nike shox. I took a paper towel and wiped the guts off the bottom of my shoe and I felt alot better.
Reply:uhm i dont remember the last time i killed one.





it doesn't bother me to step on a bug at all. the only thing i wont step on because i'm terrified of them is spiders. otherwise, i won't hesitate most of the time
Reply:Depends on the bug. A roach I will gladly squash with no qualms. Ditto brown recluse spiders in my house. If it is a harmless bug that is just in the wrong place, including spiders, I will try to take it outside rather than kill it. I will never kill a bug that is outdoors. I can't remember the last time I killed a bug, much less the shoes I was wearing.





Funny thing: my New Balance have so much tread that when I step on a bug with them, it usually gets away anyway.
Reply:Last killed...I can't remember. I don't mind stepping on them, but the only problem is the gooey stuff they leave behind. So I don't step on anything unless I'm outside. Too much of a mess to clean.





I just don't like squashing bugs with my hands. Now that drives me crazy.





I'm not cruel. Who asked them to crawl up into my house??

Why do knees hurt after walking/jogging?

I've been mostly walking with some jogging, and now my knees started hurting after my last walk. It only hurts a lot when I go up and down the stairs in my houses. What's going on? I was wearing walking shoes and bought some gel insoles, I'm not running fast, just jogging -- I'm one to run out of breath very quickly. I went through the whole legs and ankles being sore bit, but that has gone away. And then out of nowhere, I wake up the next morning and my knees hurt. My legs aren't sore or anything, just pain in my knees. I decided not the go to the park over the weekend and lay in bed most of the time, but I'll start my routine during the weekdays again. If the pain persist, how long should I put off a doctors visit? Should I even go to the doctors?

Why do knees hurt after walking/jogging?
i'll be honest with you there can be a whole bunch of reasons why this is happening. Usually weight plays a big role in joing pain. If you have gained a few pounds here and there, it will affect your joints. Also, if you are at the age were arthritis is becomming a reality, you might want to get it checked out. Usually those are the common reasons. I think it would be best of you visit a doctor, orthopedic to be exact soon. Hope it gets better soon.
Reply:How about you rest your knees for awhile. Take it easy and take some glucosamine and omega 3 to help keep the joints in your knees well lubricated and may help with the pain you are experiancing.
Reply:the problem is maybe you haven't excercised alot lately because that's how you get cramps and in this case pain in your knee. you're just not used to running frequently
Reply:do you stretch out before you jog/walk? this may be the cause, make sure that you stretch all your body before you exercise. also, it could be the way you jog, perhaps try and find a joging style that isn't too hard on your knees, like don't run hard down a hill or something like that. i hope this helps =)
Reply:Since u run out of breath very quickly, u could b overweight which is one of the main reasons of pain in knees. If u r jogging on a hard surface, it stresses ur knees %26amp; ur back bone, causing pain. U must jog only on grassy surfaces. If u have injured ur knee recently, u may b having a torn ligament in the knee causing pain.


Do not put off seeing ur doc.
Reply:i get that it must be normal
Reply:i think u should go to the doctars and cheack it out
Reply:you might have a mild case of arthritis which is barely starting to develop.........try going to an orthopaedics doctor to get them checked

But with poor information of how to sell them, these slippers and mules become a heavy hill on my back, i work hard everyday for other part time job to support hugh storage fee and try to sell them, but still do not know how. Can anyone help me, advise me how i can sell them, got thousands need do wholesale quick, please help. Thanks everyone read these words, thanks.

Have you considered opening a shop on ebay/listing your stock on e-bay? You could sell the lot wholesale or list them individually to buyers as an online business?
Reply:After you have made enough out of slippers, to prevent the so called hill, you could give some stuff to a charity shop. As a guess mules are shoes in this case, anything special about them ie. abnormal sizes, designer, creating you own brand or gap in the market sound good. Another idea would be opening a shop near a school where they need these shoes.
Reply:was almost funny.

How can i make my shoes comfy?

Its not very often I wear heels cause the balls of my feet hurt and Im not the kind of barbie doll girl that would rather be crippled than not be wearing this seasons footwear.





I 'test wore' my heels last night, a walk to the bus stop, across town, to a meal and then to the taxi.... It felt like i walking on razor blades. (!)





I dont want to wear flats, so please dont answer this if thats all your going to say.





I would like advice on how to stop my feet hurting. A good brand of shoe maybe or do those jelly insoles actually work?





will my feet eventually stop hurting if i wear hells more regularly?





How do some girls manage to totter round all night in 6 inch heels without being in agony or are they in pain but in denial?





help please, im going shoe shopping tonight

How can i make my shoes comfy?
Have you tried scholl party feet? they're like little cushions you put in shoes, and they sell them at most shoe stores, keep you feet nice and comfy xx
Reply:You might wanna try putting iner souls into your shoes.


Its always worked for me
Reply:i think u should waer those shoes which got fat heels.its very stylish too.
Reply:You could try those jelly inserts - sometimes I feel they work and sometimes they don't. If your shoes aren't too tight, you could try padded inner soles. Also, you may be right with your comment about wearing heels more often - perhaps you feet would get used to the position and feel of heels. If you're going out shoe shopping tonight how about trying on different heel hights to see if that makes any difference? Good luck and happy shopping!
Reply:been there done that god i feel sooo sorry for you its a bummer if yr shoes are new and maybe slightly tight try putting slightly wet rolled up newspaper in them overnight that helps to stretch them slightly that was a cobbler that gave me that tip and it does work another thing you mentioned was those jelly insoles they only really help if yr shoes are slightly bigger to start with ,try caring a small can or bottle of peppermint cooling spray for feet from the body shop and when they sting just spray really refreshes yr feet ,but please take a tip from a high heal wearer in the long run they do NO favours for yr back i know that to my cost I'm suffering every day from chronic back pain due to constant high heals if you think about it yr really pushing yr spine in an awkward position so all I'm saying is just be care-full don't be a fashion victim but do try the peppermint spray it really does cool them happy walking :)Tc x
Reply:There are several types of shoe inserts available for heels now. Wedges are also usually more comfortable to stay in and can be just as cute, but this way your weight is more evenly distributed.





If a strap is cutting into your foot and you don't have time to break them in, or it continues doing it, put a flesh colored bandaid under the strap so it won't rub.





Usually, the more you invest in a shoe, the better it will be comfort wise (not always) bc the materials are higher quality, but I buy inexpensive heels all the time. Bandaids, shoe inserts and wedge heels are the best way to go though. You can stay in those all night long, and your balance won't be thrown off as much.





And if you find out your foot is sliding in the heel and causing discomfort, just spray some hairspray in the ball of the shoe, then let it dry for a minute. It might feel a little odd at first, but it will keep your foot from sliding down.





Unfortunately, some shoes you just can't save. If a shoe hurts in the store when trying it on, don't get it. There's only so much you can do.
Reply:Try the party feet if the shoes are open at the toe.





For closed toe shoes you can get insoles that are just for the ball of the foot that hook over your middle to to keep them in place.





If you have got a big night coming, wear your shoes around the house for a few evenings to get used to your muscles used to being in the postion.





Your feet would get used to heels if you wore them more often as the skin/flesh hardens/thickens to protect the areas if impact.





A tube of haemarroid cream is a must, rub the balls of your feet, it has a mild anesthetic in it and will numb the pain a bit.
Reply:buy some party feet gel or some confy insoles
Reply:hiya, the gel insoles are pretty good. I always suffer with the balls of my feet aching!


invest in some, they really work!
Reply:I'm exactly the same as you.





* Scholl Party Feet really help





* Maybe it's the size of the heel? Try going for a small heel like 3inches or maybe kitten heels.





*Another idea would be wedges. They're this seasons 'in' shoe and they are so easy to waer because they're flat on the bottom.





Good luck, and I hope your feet get better!
Reply:Serious answer here, but if their leather you could p.i.s.s. in them! My uncle used to work down the mines, and he always did that in his new boots to soften the leather!........A bar of soap rubbed on the offending area of shoe may be a little more to your liking tho?! ;-)
Reply:Yes Scholls PARTY FEET are definately a good option. I bought my first pair of high heels for a Christmas party last year and got the jelly inserts to go with them and they DO WORK! They are very comfortable. The only tip is to try them on in store with the shoe because I needed a half size bigger shoe to accomodate the insert. After wearing heels for a while, your feet should get used to them and you'll find them easier to wear. Good luck!
Reply:It might be that you just have to keep practise wearing them in, you could try those Jellies, but it maybe simply that they are new shoes.





If they feel stiff, rub a bit of vaseline on the affected area, and then you may feel the pain less.

Help buying running shoes!!?

I'm 19 years old and I have been running 3-5 miles a day 4 days a week for about 5 years now. Within the last year and a half I have noticed that I am going through running shoes a lot quicker than I need to because my heels rub through the fabric on the back of the shoe so I end up rubbing against plastic (ouch!) I have done this with my last 3 pairs of shoes, the first 2 were New Balance and the last Mizuno. I've found that I rub through the heel after about 3 runs.





Does anyone else have this problem or know a solution to it? Also, any recommendations on a good running shoe?





Thanks!

Help buying running shoes!!?
That sounds like a serious problem in your running form if you're rubbing through the heel of your shoe. I suggest putting insoles into the shoe you buy that have a lot of cushion. Take out the soles that come with the shoe you buy and put in that pair in every new pair of shoes. Look up questions about correct form it could be that you're landing on your feet wrong. You want to land on the balls of your feet. And I'd recommend wearing Asics Gel-cumulous. they have cushioning.
Reply:I just bought some great running shoes that are made by a company called Brooks. I have never heard of them before but I love the shoes. You can also try going to a specialty store that will recommend shoes based on the shape of your foot and the way you run. It's called gait analysis. That is what I did and my new shoes have helped me immensely with shin splints and such. Good Luck!
Reply:I only buy shoes made in America. New Balance now makes some really high quality shoes that are made in America. The shoes are identified by a special label.





In general, running shoes don't differ much. What differs is how individual feet conform to individual shoes. Each shoe model will conform differently to a person's foot.





That being said, if you are really concerned about running shoes then you should visit a good shoe store that specializes in athletics shoes. Good shoe stores have skilled individuals that will pick shoes that best fit your feet. (Many good athletic shoe stores are near university campuses with good sports programs. )
Reply:Asics have always worked for me, give them a try. If you rub through the heel after just 3 runs then maybe the shoes are too small or you have the wrong type of shoe (ie. not enough support/cushion) I am 6-1 150 and had a similar problem because I didnt have enough support in my running shoes. And I mean I am by no means a "big" guy but not all of us can be kenyans who are 115 pounds and can wear the lightest of all shoes
Reply:i absolutely LOVED my ascics gel 1110. they're unbelievably comfortable and very light. i would dedinitely reccomend any kind of ascics. GOOD LUCK!!!
Reply:Go to a good local (in your area) specialty running store. They can recommend the most appropriate shoes for you. However, I wonder if you wear decent running socks (50-50 polyester) and not cotton ones? Maybe you do need a bit wider shoe than the standard "D" width?
Reply:i like to wear asics cause it soft and you can fell the air in your she so ur feet dont sweat alot so ur shoes dont smell uts real good it does asics have gel made in to the shoe so to some people it feels like walking on air and goes ruin fast
Reply:If your heels are rubbing the fabric, is it possible that your shoes are too small for your feet?





For good running shoes, I used Nikes, which took a fair amount of getting used to, but worked fine. Now I'm in Reeboks, but they are track spikes and I never really considered reebok a great running shoe brand. I hear good things about asics as well, although I have never used them. It seems like they should be the best because they specialize in running.
Reply:If you rub through the heel after jsut 3 runs, you likely are in the wrong type of shoe. Try going to a specialty running store that'll fit the shoe to your foot type and give you a sturdy trainer.
Reply:I like Addidas... When you go to buy them check their weight (running shoes must be very light) and their flexibility (they should be flexible). Don't be afraid of spending lots of money.

Can somebody explain this to me why did it happened?

Everytime, after a 1 - 2 mile running test (that we have every 6 months), my hips %26amp; legs would hurt! I can't barely bend my knees! It lasted for about 2 days usually. I think that's because I was not using proper shoes. Students from our school can't wear any other shoes to school other than school shoes. So, it's a cumbersome to have running shoes in my bagpack to school just for the test.





What's weird is last week, we had the running test again and I didn't feel exhausted after the test like I used to be. I didn't feel tired at all during the run! Taking a break during the run is no longer necessary. I can still run after the test %26amp; I have more energy left than usual and my time is MUCH MUCH better!! Honestly, I don't know why. I was using the same shoes! And the next day, my hips, legs %26amp; heels felt normal! NO PAIN! Same thing happened to my twin.





I don't understand, why did it happened?!

Can somebody explain this to me why did it happened?
I have had good days and bad days for running. If you got away with running in bad shoes last time, lucky for you!





Really, you should get some real running shoes or you run the risk of going back to the painful result. If you abuse yourself enough, the injuries could last forever. Also you might have changed your form, the way you run, with improved results.





If you're a teenager, your ability to run increases dramatically, so that could be it.





But really, get some good shoes!
Reply:Your problem sounds like you have tight muscle and tendons.





A lot of runners experience problem with tendonitis and fasciitis, which can cause pain only after you run for a while. It has nothing to do with shoes. It has to do with stretching and conditioning.





If you stretch on regular basis, your tendon and fascia will be more flexible, so when you exercise, they are less likely to get inflammed.





If you run regularly, your body will be condition to the running and will have less pain. That's how people train for marathons - to run more and more until the short milages does not cause pain, then you increase the milage further.





Start Stretching on daily basis, then do a good warmup and stretching before you run. It will help.
