Supposedly, I have a foot problem. I twisted it, and the bones on my foot are crooked, although I hadn't felt any pain from it when I found out. Now it sometimes gives me a hard time, like when I walk too much and it hurts, or it stiffens up and I have to work my joints. It even hurts when I'm just sitting down. I don't know if I need surgery to correct it, or it's one of those things that will correct itself on its own. I heard that people have one shoulder that's higher than the other, things like that, but is my foot a serious problem?

Something you might want to consider. I was on jump status for 22 years. Sometime after retirement, I began to experience pain in my feet. For a long time I thought it was old injuries coming back to haunt me. But when I finally went to my Doctor, I found out that there is this thing called "gout". It's caused by what a person eats and drinks making the uric acid levels to rise in the blood. You might want to check that out with your Doctor. It's painful as hell.
