My podiatrist says I have severe pes cavus and the only thing that will ultimately help is surgery which I refuse to do. I have had custom orthodics for about 2 years. I still suffer with plantar faciatis and swollen bone under big toe and general pain throughout the foot. I currently wear high end New balance walking shoes. Is this the best ones to use are there other brands that are better?

New Balance is an excellent athletic shoe but you might want to consider trying the Aetrex X521.
