Is aching feet quite common during menopause and how do you manage to sooth your aching feet?

Some advice please also for insoles and shoes with good arch supports

[CLKD]

As oestrogen levels drop so might the arches in the feet = aches and pains.

Check your foot wear and make sure that slippers are supportive.  Is there a particular pinch point under the heel for example or it is all over aching bones/joints?  True restless legs can be cured by eating bananas daily ;-)

I bought some "cold & hot therapy wrap reusable gel pack for pain relief.  Great for sprains, muscle pain, bruises, injuries etc. (Foot, arm elbow, Ankle)" from Amazon £13.99.  I love them.  Keep them in the fridge (Freezer is too much!) and pop them on both feet in bed, they attach with velcro - BLISS!

Hi

I am also experiencing the sore feet.  Sore aching stiff soles especially when I wake up in the morning so thanks for the recommendations.

It is the BetterYou brand, I bought it in our large Tesco but you can also buy online direct from BetterYou.  I'd hazard a guess amd say maybe even Holland and Barrett. Avoid the spray version as some people (me included!) Finds it either stings or itches. Whereas the butter is just lovely 😍
