I've got a question about treatments is atrophy of the fat pad.
I have a lot of patients who are suffering with fatpad atrophy in the heel and forefoot.
Mostly, I will make soft inlays to create some damping.
I'm curious about other treatments than inlays and gel pads.
Who have any experiences with other treatments?
