What Is Flat Foot And How Does It Affect Your Life?

Flat foot is when the natural arches of the foot have not developed during childhood and can become a painful condition when left untreated by a podiatrist. Without this natural support, there are many negative short-term and long-term consequences, such as:

• Arch, heel, and foot pain
• Fatigue 
• Difficulties walking
• Swelling around the inside of the ankle
• Ankles move inward causing increased discomfort
• Alignment disruption of the legs
• Increased chance of arthritis in the knees
