Think of Your Poor Feet

想想可憐的腳吧

In brief:
簡言之：

Huge numbers of people develop foot pain in their 60s, but it can start as early as the 20s and 30s.
大多數人在六十多歲時開始腳痛／產生足部疼痛，但也可能早發於二三十歲／發生得更早──在二三十歲的時候／但也可能在二三十歲的時候就產生疼痛。

Excessive weight, diabetes and circulation problems can contribute to foot pain.
體重過重，糖尿病以及血液循環的問題，都可能導致腳痛。

Proper footwear and regular exercise can play a crucial role in preventing foot problems.
在預防足部問題上，合腳的鞋類／合適的鞋子以及適當的運動扮演著決定性的角色。

The average person walks the equivalent of three times around the Earth in a lifetime. That is enormous wear and tear on the 26 bones, 33 joints and more than 100 tendons, ligaments and muscles that make up the foot.

一般人在一生中，走過的路／行走的路程相當於繞行地球的三倍之多。這對於由二十六根骨頭，三十三處關節，百條以上的肌腱、韌帶和肌肉組成的足部產生了非常大的損耗。

In a recent survey for the American Podiatric Medical Association, 53 percent of respondents reported foot pain so severe that it hampered their daily function. On average, people develop pain in their 60s, but it can start as early as the 20s and 30s. Yet, except for women who get regular pedicures, most people don't take much care of their feet.
最近一份美國足部醫學協會的報告指出，百分之五十三的回應者指出他們的腳痛得很嚴重，並且因此影響到了生活機能。一般來說，人們在六十多歲時開始腳痛，但也可能在二三十歲時就出現症狀。所以，除了定期修剪腳趾甲的婦女以外，大多數人都不太注重自己的足部保養。
