Foot exam (experience or fantasy)

I am curious what others' experiences with foot exams have been. As a play patient, while I have always enjoyed my exams, there was only a very cursory assessment of my feet. I don't consider myself as a die hard foot fetishist, but I do find feet attractive and do enjoy having my feet examined, and thus a little disappointed. As for real life, pretty much the same thing.

I would love a play exam that had a decent foot exam. The doctor first looks at my feet and soles, and then thoroughly palpates my legs, knees, ankles, and feet themselves. The doctor does reflexes (knee, achilles, babinski), and does a sensory exam as well, testing my sensation with a pinwheel or something similar. I think it would be cool to have my feet measured for arch, size, etc. I would also have to stand in front of the doctor naked wearing 3 or 4 pairs of shoes I commonly wear (birkenstocks, barefoot shoes, etc.) and again be assessed for fit and such. It seems oddly specific, but I think this would add a fun component to an exam.

What are others' experiences? Do you have a particular story or fantasy in mind regarding foot exams?

The only real experience I have with foot exams is what gave me my foot fetish. It wasn’t my feet being examined. I went to my moms gyno exam and the doctor looked at feet and squeezed her big toes as well. Did the same to my sister when I went with her. I personally love feet only female feet though so if I ever get to attend an exam again which hopefully I will then hopefully there will be some good feet checking. I know if I ever get to do a play exam there will be.

Generally as a diabetic my doctor checks feet. Only 1 doctor I had when I was laying on my back. He removed my socks and checked feet thoroughly and between each toe and checked toenails. If I wS examining I would check feet and if something specific like different shoe's I would do that.

I had mine checked for possible nerve issues (numbness in toes). Not very exciting. Funny thing is they took my temperature orally vs temporal. Nurse said they wanted the extra accuracy. For a foot job? Really? This was before the mask mandates

I’m severely flat-footed so I’ve had my fair share of foot exams for that reason. Earliest I can remember is when I was in the second grade. Took a couple years, but finally got a diagnosis after getting X-rays and seeing an orthopedic doctor about it. Since then, all of my foot exams were cursory and mainly visual during a physical. My pediatrician started checking my feet again when I was in high school. He would look them over, check my pedal pulses, test reflexes, and one year he had me walk around on my toes and heels to check my gait. During that exam, while I thought the walking around part was a bit odd, I really enjoyed the sensory experience I got from standing/walking on the cold floor, having my feet touched, and simply just having them exposed around another person. I was very self conscious about my feet at the time and didn’t like going barefoot around other people that much, it gave me a lot of anxiety, but that moment changed me and that’s when I decided to really overcome it with gradual exposure therapy because the sensory experience felt so relaxing. Took many years of gradual exposure and exploration to get where I am now. Fast forward to now, no more anxiety and very comfortable with going barefoot to the point that it’s the only way I can really relax. I still suffer from flat feet so I wear custom orthotics, but I’m not shy about showing my feet anymore in appropriate settings. I don’t go barefoot as much as I would like because I need the support, but do go barefoot more frequently now than when I was a kid as a sensory regulation method. Now, I don’t get foot exams anymore except for when I go to the dermatologist or my podiatrist, but I started getting foot reflexology massages to help with sinus pressure and stimulate the nerves in my feet. That along with my regular massage therapy, helps me feed my craving for touch. Oh and forgot to mention, I’m diagnosed with ASD and Sensory Processing Disorder, so all of that played an underlying factor for some of this.

I have my feet checked regularly for neuropathy as I am diabetic. Mostly just sensation testing.

I did work as a reflexologist and massage therapist and did a lot of footwork then. Mostly therapeutic, but some sensual as well. Most of my clients enjoyed attention to their feet.

I receive excellent foot work 2/wk with my acupuncture and chiropractic work. There is nothing like incredible foot work and and incredible pedicure from someone who knows how to properly stretch and massage the toes, foot, arch, ankle etc using acupressure, reflexology, massage, meridians, zoning etc!

@LordJim2,

You were definitely a gem to your clients! Hmmm…. Are you still available?😉

Best book by far for foot work is Feet First, Laura Norman!

I am diabetic and go to a foot clinic every 4-5 weeks to get them checked and the nails cut and calluses filed down. They are also a wound clinic and I have ulcers on my L great toe so I am also going once a week for that. They debride it and put a fresh dressing on. I have very little feeling in my feet (unless I step on a lego) so I don't feel the debriding, thankfully. I also go to a nursing clinic for a dressing change in between appts w/ the wound clinic. Right now it's infected in the bone (osteomyelitis).

I find the feet to be a very erotic part of the body. I've had a foot fetish for as long as I can remember, and it's quite interesting how it works both ways - I'm attracted to exposed feet, but also I feel exposed when my feet are visible and being touched by someone. They feel like a sexual part of the body to me in that way.

For you @Fawkes , any time. 😃

In real life I get my feet checked almost every other physical exam. usually socks off. Got the babinski twice. But im usually barefoot from start to finish as they say “shirt, shoes and socks off please.. role up jeans a bit above ankle too”
