Need Relief from Flat Foot Pain?

 

Many people who are flat footed do not know that they have this condition; they simply attribute the pain to other causes.
Flat feet, also known as fallen arches, is a condition that occurs when the arch in the foot collapses. The collapse of the arch causes the entire sole of the foot to come into complete contact, or almost in complete contact, with the floor. As a result, people with flat feet are unable to tread normally and are forced to alter their steps.

  Causesof Flat Foot

----------------------------------------

Many people suffer with low arches or a lack of any formed arch at all, may be very painful and this may be due to a number of conditions:

• Developmental
  
• Hereditary
  
• Ruptured Tendon or Ligament
  
• Cerebral Palsy or Spina Bifida
  

• 

Symptoms

--------------------------

Most flat feet do not cause pain or other problems.

At times, foot pain, ankle pain, or lower leg pain are present (especially in children).

Adults may notice some symptoms. Their feet may become achy or tired when standing for long periods of time or after playing sports.

  Flatfeet Treatment

----------------------------------

Your child's feet will grow and develop the same, whether special shoes, shoe inserts, heel cups, or wedges are used.

• Your child may walk barefoot, run or jump, or do any other activity without making the flat feet worse.
  

In older children and adults, flexible flat feet that are painless and do not cause problems with walking do not need further treatment once a health care provider has evaluated them.

If you have pain due to flexible flat feet, the following may help:

• An off-the-shelf or custom-made orthotic (arch-supporting insert in the shoe)
• Special shoes
  

Rigid or painful flat feet require evaluation by a health care provider. The treatment depends on the cause of the flat feet.

For tarsal coalition, treatment starts with rest and possibly a cast. If this does not improve the pain, surgery may be needed.
