How to Travel This Summer Without Pain

Do you put off vacations due to pain?

Traveling can be uncomfortable for anyone, and it can make already existing pain even more apparent. Here are some tips to prevent pain this summer:

Luggage – For small bags, consider backpacks. Rather than weighing down one of your shoulders with a heavy shoulder bag, a backpack will distribute the weight evenly on both shoulders. For a suitcase, choose one with wheels. Make sure to lift correctly while carrying or retrieving any luggage.

While Sightseeing – If you’re walking more than usual, bring comfortable shoes and shoe insoles. These can help plantar fasciitis and heel pain.
