Lightbulb Proposal for new forum.

In view of the number of medically related questions that continually keep cropping-up , I would like to propose that a forum specifically devoted to sore feet and medically related problems be implemented.

Could be an idea! Do you think we would have enough threads to fill a new forum like that?

Possibly, but who is going to trawl the forums and move all the threads into the new forum?

What should we call it? "high heel medical issues"?

Foot care would cover any issue nicely.

Right-on! Personally, I'd prefer something like "Personal Care" or "Medical Care", but something that conveys the idea of where one might go to round-up some ready advice on several medical issues, instead of having to search through the entire forum.

Am I the only one here worried about giving medical advice?

We could put a disclaimer on...

Something like:

"Any medical advice given on this forum is based on personal experience and does not supercede professional medical advice."

Actually, the disclaimer I use most frequently is: This advice/information is for informational purposes only. For competent medical advice your should consult a professional doctor (or licensed practitioner).

Nope, me too...

How about we simply call it "Shoe related physical issues"

No mention of the word "advice" or "medical" and definately not a general medical forum...?

There's no problem if you put a disclaimer. Just something like "The opinions offered are those of visitors, and are in no way condoned or otherwise endorsed by the High Heel Place admin. Always seek qualified medical advice in relation to foot health matters"

If we bow to the alter of claims culture and the nanny state we'd end up closing the whole board down. In any case comments made by members on such subjects are no different to what goes on already.
