Flat Foot
(Pes Planus)
The arch is the area on the inside of the foot that does not touch the ground. It can vary in height from high to very low and this variation is usually completely normal.
(asymptomatic).
Flat foot can be self-managed with some simple changes; good supportive footwear, weight loss, physiotherapy and improved fitness. If these simple measures do not manage your symptoms and you have any of the following
• Increased aching or pain
• A reduction in your ability to perform normal tasks and reduced activity levels.
• Sudden unexplained flattening of your arch.
• Sudden increases in the wear marks on the soles of shoes, especially the insides of the heel on shoes less than six months old.
• Weakness or numbness in the feet.
