my feet!!! :(

Hi all! I am new to posting to the site but have been here before. I just got my first RN job and had my first 12 hour shift, and my feet are killing me. I thought my regular shoes like I wore for clinicals would be ok but, definitely not. I am overweight, and I know that some shoes have too narrow soles that cause my feet to "roll" outward. People have told me about Alegrias, and I have looked at other streams about this subject. So, other than losing weight, which is in progress but not soon enough to save my feet, what can I do??
What kind of shoes are you wearing?
Honestly, you get used to it and your feet won't hurt as much. Give it a couple weeks for your body to adjust. I have danskos which I did not love. Gym shoes often felt great. I had a pair of Birkenstock clogs that were great.
Jobst Relief Compression StockingsI'm not working yet, but I can tell a huge difference when I wear these to clinicals.
Yes to Alegrias!!! My ortho doc clued me in to these after a knee injury. They're a bit pricey, but well worth it. Lots of support but much cushier than Danskos or Birkies. They have taken over my shoe wardrobe.
thanks all! I was wearing some SKechers work shoes, I bought a pair of Alegrias I am going to try Monday. I also got some knee high support hose. I hope I do get used to it!
