My Feet Are Killin' Me!: A Surgeon's Field Manual for Feet That Never Get a Day Off - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

"Your shift doesn't end when you clock out; it ends when your feet stop screaming."
For nurses, police officers, waitresses, flight attendants, and anyone who spends their working life on their feet, Dr. James Whitfield has one message: your foot pain isn't just "part of the job." It's the predictable result of years spent in what he calls a "Coffin Shoe" — footwear that tapers, compresses, and collapses the natural architecture of your foot.

After nearly thirty years as a reconstructive foot and ankle surgeon, Dr. Whitfield distills everything he's learned into a practical, no-nonsense field manual built specifically for working professionals who can't just "take it easy":

The Tripod Principle — the three-point structural system holding your entire body upright, and what
happens when it collapses
The Coffin Shoe — how to spot one before you buy it, and what your "professional" footwear might already be doing to your feet
The Wreckage Report — a clear, compassionate look at hammer toes and corns, what causes them, and what you can actually do about them today
Tactical Relief — 15-second resets you can do mid-shift without ever leaving the floor
A full toolkit — the Shoe Audit, the Shift-Pressure Diary, the 14-Day Transition Log, and more, all designed to fit into a real working life
This isn't a wellness book. It's a field manual — practical, direct, and written by someone who spent three decades seeing exactly what happens when feet are ignored for too long.

Includes a 31-day inspection log, a 12-week Shift-Pressure Diary, a 14-day transition log, a foot type self-assessment, and a glossary — everything you need to actually use what's in these pages, not just read them.
