The end of your toes will start to get a lot of pain, especially if you don't wear toe pads. Toe pads are not recommended, but some people need to wear them. When you're doing Ballet moves where you don't go up onto pointe, your ankles will start to hurt a little bit afterwards. If you have bad arch support, your arches will start to cramp quite a lot after taking them off.
