Flat Foot

Flat feet, is a condition where the arches of the feet are flattened, causing the entire sole of the foot to touch the ground. It can be congenital, meaning present from birth, or acquired later in life due to factors like ageing, injury, or obesity.

Flat feet may not always cause symptoms, but some individuals experience pain, stiffness, or swelling in the feet, ankles, or lower legs. Activities that involve prolonged standing or walking can exacerbate discomfort.

Treatment options for flat feet include supportive footwear with arch support, orthotic inserts, stretching exercises to strengthen the muscles and improve flexibility, and in severe cases, surgery to correct structural abnormalities.

Managing flat feet can help alleviate symptoms and improve mobility, allowing individuals to engage in daily activities with greater comfort and ease. Regular consultation with a podiatrist can provide guidance on proper foot care and treatment options tailored to individual needs
