Agony of the feet

Carrie Bradshaw, the shoe-loving diva from HBO’s Sex and the City series, may have forked over more than $40,000 for her closet full of Manolo Blahniks, but that doesn’t mean her feet are healthy. Let’s be honest: Wearing high heels may make our calves and clothes look better, but heels are uncomfortable as hell! Still, many women tolerate the pain in the name of fashion. By the end of the day, their feet are sore and screaming for relief. To help stop aching feet in their tracks, the UC Davis Center for Healthy Aging invites you to a free lecture called “Oh, My Aching Feet.” Podiatrist Sandra Martin will share hints for keeping your feet healthy. The lecture will be held from noon until 1:30 p.m. on Monday at the Sierra Health Foundation, located at 1321 Garden Highway. Call (916) 734-6441 for more information.
