I have a slipped disk (also known as a herniated disk). What are the best walking shoes to use with a herniated disk?

The Fitness Walking Guide Says...




I did some research on this topic as I only know a little about lower back injuries, such as a slipped disk. In all of the recommendations I read, the experts do not suggest a specific brand of shoes, just that you wear a good pair of supportive walking shoes.

What this means is that you need to find a pair of walking shoes that support your feet and cause no pain. When you wear a shoe that provides the correct support, flexibility and cushioning, you'll be able to avoid putting more strain on your back.

To find the right pair of walking shoes for you, you'll need to determine the needs of your feet and select a pair of shoes that is made for your foot type. Have a look at this article I wrote about the best walking shoes, which will help you identify your foot type. It also provides recommendations on shoes for each foot type.

Walking is a great exercise to help strengthen your back and relieve pain. Here is a great website with more information on your slipped disk.

Best of luck to you and happy walking!
