A 30 something lady who presents with lateral foot pain that is most aggravated by stairs and slightly less so with walking. She indicates pain precisely at heel rise and localized it to the lateral mid foot. She is point tender about the Cuboid region. Her VAS pre- treatment pain is 6/10 ambukating stairs. After Applying leukotape juxtaposing the course of Peroneus Longus the pain rating on stairs drops to 2/10. Without tape, a slight degree of relief occurs with the addition of a Cuboid pad to her Powerstep insert. Two final pieces of information: 1) she had a Lifranc fusion 3 years ago, and 2) she tends to wear very flexible soles athletic shoes. My question is this. Would it be logical to prescribe a carbon graphite insole with a Cuboid pad that would lessen the stress to this area of the mid foot as the next step before heading down the path of a custom orthotic?
