Reply to comment by False_Cauliflower649 in you can tell how flat my feet are by the way my boots are wearing down by cami11e22

i'm still in my early 20s and not yet surprisingly. I had no idea it was this bad until i saw my boots though. Right after I took this picture I made a doctors appointment so i can get referred to a podiatrist lol

That’s the best thing you ever did. I have few regrets in life, but not wearing my insoles growing up is definitely number 1 on the list. My knees have no cartilage, my hips pop, my lower back is a hot mess, all my back actually, pelvis 1” higher on one side and my shoulders are an inch higher on the opposite side…. Oh, and because of that, my spine has been curving…. All because I chose not to wear insoles… oh, for context, I’m only 37….

For years I had a diet of anti inflammatories, pain killers & stomach meds to fight the stomach ulcers caused by said relief methods. Then I found CBD/THC. That has saved and ruined my life at the same time; currently in Norway under lockdown waiting to be deported for flying in for work with 3.5g of medical CBD/THC….

I'm right there with you. Lower back, right side gets tight, causing upper left shoulder pain.

Good for you, get it under control early to prevent pain later on.
