  • Flat Feet (Pes Planus) - Podiatrist Georgina Tay, East Coast Podiatry
    Flat feet (Pes Planus) is a condition in which the medial arch of the foot is flattened. It can be observed from 2 years old or anytime during the adult years.
    There are two types of flat feet: congenital and acquired. Congenital flat feet are present at birth, while acquired flat feet develop later in life.
    Congenital flat feet are usually caused by a weakness in the ligaments and tendons that support the arch of the foot. Acquired flat feet can be caused by a number of factors, including obesity, pregnancy, and certain medical conditions.
    Flat feet can cause a number of problems, including pain, fatigue, and difficulty walking or running. In severe cases, flat feet can lead to problems with the ankles, knees, hips, and spine.
    The best solution for flat feet depends on the severity of the condition and the patient's individual needs.
    It is important to note that flat feet are not always a cause for concern. Many people with flat feet live normal, active lives without any problems. However, if you are experiencing pain or discomfort in your feet, it is important to see a doctor or a podiatrist to rule out any underlying medical conditions.

    kind of strange looking to see a flat foot I didn't know such a thing existed, never seen someone take their shoes and socks off and actually have flat feet, almost makes it look like a person is walking on their hands instead of feet. interesting science, thanks for the info and reminder to keep my feet strong and in shape over time since there is an adult acquired flat foot possible.

      I am 24 years old and the arches have flattened. I feel discomfort in my heel at times.
      I want to know if a Podiatrist can help me regain my arches with customized insoles.

      I just found this channel recently. I really want to get involve in sports but i was told that I have flat feet. Does that mean that podiatrist can prescribe a shoes that allow me to get into a specific sport?

    Custom ones are usually 300 dollars. Try off the counter first and see if they work first

      Hi John, off the shelf insoles, may provide some temporary relief but do not address the underlying causes for the pains people experience at all. Custom insoles prescribed by podiatrists are meant to be corrective as well as rehabilitative. To avoid walking issues and chronic pain in your later years, please see a podiatrist as soon as you can!
