    Hi!

    I am Ionut , and my story is yours. Have you managed to find any solution? I had the Kenalog shot for 3 months and the things are getting worse. Finally I've found a doctor that told me about this cortisone side effect.

    Hello, Ionut. I don't know if you'll see my message, but I'm the person who posted that message in 2010 about my fat pad atrophy.

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation, and I hope that your foot improves. Has your doctor offered you any kind of treatment for your atrophy?

    I haven't found a solution to fat pad loss. My foot is in much more pain than when I posted on this site ten years ago, and it has developed other issues. Everyone is different, so my experience may not be what happens to you.

    Recently, I had to see a podiatrist for a toe infection and for the issues in my foot. I told him that I had received a couple of Kenalog injections in that foot which caused fat pad atrophy, but he ignored what I said and offered to give me an injection in my heel. I declined his injection, and his response was that cortisone injections don't cause any issues unless you get many injections. But that's not true. I was surprised that he offered an injection during my very 1st visit, without diagnosing the cause of my arch pain. I'm so sick of doctors who want to hand out these injections like candy. The injections are a big money-maker for them, so why would they want to acknowledge that there are side effects?

    This won't cure fat pad atrophy, but I think they may help with some of the pain, although if an advanced case, maybe not.

    I think I have been developing fat pad atrophy and of course, physical therapists were no help...ditto for the podiatrist I went to. Just sold me an expensive pair of custom made orthotics that are too hard.

    Anyway, I read about Oofos sandals and shoes on a shoe site called Barking Dogs. The lady mentioned they were helpful for fat pad atrophy.

    I went to Fitniche locally and asked if they had them. They did, I walked around in them and they were very different and comfortable. Worth a try for $49 or so.

    The first night, I had pain-free feet.

    Have had them a little over 2 weeks and they still are helpful...but they are not a cure. I now realize I have been trying to keep walking as an exercise, but getting sore feet at night...they can't overcome the stress of walking.

    But they still are the most helpful shoes I've found for this misery. I just have to stop walking as an exercise and see what happens.

    I found a website, foot solutions.com that addresses fat pad atrophy. They recommend not walking for exercise or doing squats. And instead exercise on a stationery bike, and swimming instead. I noticed on their shoe selections, they also had Oofos sandals. So that was a good sign to me.

    Anyway, maybe the Oofos can help some people with this condition.
