Fall Foot Health Check—Top Tips to Keep Families Moving in Altamonte Springs

As September arrives in Altamonte Springs and busy routines return, it’s the perfect time for a fall foot health check for you and your loved ones. Whether you’re gearing up for sports, long days at school, or simply enjoying Florida’s cooler evenings, healthy feet are essential for an active, pain-free season. Here’s how I help families at Orange Sky Podiatry step confidently into fall.

Why Fall Is Prime Time for Foot Care

The back-to-school rush often brings new shoes and increased activities, which can mean more blisters, aches, or hidden problems. Parents are signing kids up for sports, adults are getting back into fitness routines, and everyone wants to enjoy autumn events without foot pain slowing them down. Now is the ideal moment to catch small issues before they become big setbacks.

Dr. Cynthia’s Top Fall Foot Health Tips

• Check Shoe Fit & Condition: Make sure shoes still fit properly after the summer growth spurts, and look for worn-out soles or tight spots that could cause rubbing, blisters, or discomfort.

• Mind the Socks: Switch to moisture-wicking socks to help prevent fungal infections and keep feet dry as temperatures and humidity fluctuate.

• Inspect Feet Weekly: Look for new calluses, swelling, ingrown nails, or skin changes. Early attention prevents complications, especially for kids and elderly family members.

• Stretch & Strengthen: Add gentle toes, ankle, and calf stretches to your morning or evening routine—this prevents injuries as activities ramp up.

• Don’t Ignore Pain: Ongoing aches, limping, or signs of discomfort in kids are never “just part of growing up.” Early evaluation keeps small problems from becoming bigger ones.
