How can I prevent sports injuries to my feet?

Proper warm-up exercises before physical activity are essential for preventing injuries. It's also important to wear supportive, properly fitting shoes and use orthotic devices if needed. Cross-training activities can also help to strengthen muscles in the feet and ankles and reduce the risk of injury. 

Additionally, stretching exercises should be done after physical activity to prevent muscle tightness or imbalances that could lead to an injury. 

If an injury does occur, it's important to rest and follow your doctor's recommendations for treatment. Ignoring the pain can lead to further complications that could take longer to heal.
