Episode Synopsis

Foot pain affects millions — but getting the right diagnosis and treatment can make all the difference. On this episode of Bad to the Bones, Debbie Rody is joined by Dr. Benjamin Marder, a board-certified foot and ankle surgeon, to dive into two of the most common (and commonly misunderstood) conditions: bunions and flat feet.

🎯 Inside this episode:

What bunions really are — and why they’re not just cosmetic
Common myths about bunions (yes, high heels are not the cause)
What the Lapiplasty® procedure does differently
Why flat feet can lead to knee, hip, or back issues
How to know when it’s time for conservative or surgical treatment
Early warning signs and how to protect long-term mobility

Dr. Marder also shares real-life examples of patients regaining function, comfort — and confidence — with the right care.
