Hi,

My shoes are worn off on the outer heels within 6 months of use.
Does that indicate any abnormality
Let me know what you think

Well all shoes will develop some sort of where to them over time. If they wear in the center of the heel then this is a common occurence. However if you have very flat arches or very high arches then your shoes will show different patterns of wear. If you are concerned then you need to make an appointment with your podiatrist for an appointment. Other factors which effect the wear is how often you wear the shoes and the activities the shoes are used for. I recommend that my patients who are joggers change shoes after every 3 months. So these are things you will need to discuss during your appointment.
