I was looking at videos on flat feet & took into consideration that "possibly just possibly" acquiring flat feet over time may have been the cause of my knee valgus & thanks to your video I got my answer, you guys are the real deal
I went into the Army with flat feet and duck feet. I didn’t know any better and all we did was run, run, and run some more. Not even a year and a half in I have tremendous knee pain that will not go away. It will disappear if I’m very inactive but eventually I walk up a flight of stairs or so
I’m in jrotc and we do a lot of marching and standing for maybe hours and my feet, knees, and lower back are in GREAT PAIN but now I KNOW WHAT TO GET! Thank you! 💛😭
Excellent Video! Forgive me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you thought about - Mackorny Feet Ahead Blueprint (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a good exclusive product for Relieving foot pain minus the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my good mate called Gray after many years got astronomical success with it.
I've had to use a can since I was 24 my feet have fucked my knees, hips and back so bad. Even orthotics from the doctor and motion control shoes haven't fixed it. In fact my feet pronate so much they destroy boots made for builders with reinforced heels and steel shanks and the inside of my heels are worn to a 45 degree angle. I'm lucky if a pair lasts a few months. I also have extremely painful bunions. I was offered surgery as a 7 or 8 year old but didn't understand enough about how my feet would affect me to make that call and can't do it now as my disability was taken away and I can't not work for months to recover.
For real! I would often supinate my flat feet to take the pressure off my (hyperextended) knock knees. I'm in my 40s now & now everything hurts from my ankles up.
Wow as a 24 year old I have hip pain due to this in which my doctor stated I needed surgery, something that isn’t a realistic option for me. The pain feels very similar to sciatica but happens to both legs. It’s just crazy
@physicaltherapyvideo Me, a patient with severe flat feet who had five surgeries, was just told by my doctor that it's IMPOSSIBLE for me to have problems in my knees, hips and lower back from my feet smh. This all happened when i was 17 after i joined the Army.
Great video, thank you! I have extremely high arches but hubby has flat feet so I am always on the look-out for good info to help him. Thank you for the help, I will try to get him to find a pair of motion control shoes.
The video I didn't know I needed. Answered practically all my questions instantly from one Google search. Thanks to you and your awesomely cheesy intro jingle!!
Great information. I've learned more from you than any of the 7 podiatrists and 1 ortho I've consulted for this problem. They were ZERO help, gave me conflicting information, and basically had an indifferent attitude. Thanks for all your help. I'm going to try a New Balance motion control shoe, the 928v3, along with either a Powerstep or Spenco Total Support Max orthotic and see if my situation improves -- fallen arches, peroneal tendonitis and insertional achilles tendonitis/bursits. Hoping for improvement and relief from this daily agony. Thanks again.
I am 13 and have flat feet. I play hockey and am now on a one month break. I did not do any strenuous activities. Yet my knee hurts like it has never before. I am worried as I do not want to and cannot quit hockey. please help
Anbazhagan S id talk to a podiatrist, they might suggest that you wear orthotics in your shoes, but i dont know if ice skates allow you to wear orthotics
Oh my gosh I've played hockey almost my entire life and I'm 19, I took a break this year from hockey and my knees are giving me so much trouble these days, feel like I'm 80
@@luvuyom278 honestly, i use to have knee pain, shin splints until i went barefoot. I ordered some xero prios. Go slow into barefoot walking and running. Barefoot walk for 5 minutes one day and steadily increase based on pain
Hopefully your folks can help you do everything possible to correct it, & stay vigilant. You will be much happier & in less pain when you're older. (I didn't get anything treated, so I know first hand!)
I have very flat feet, and growing up my knees would dislocate. Now that I am 37, have developed a bunion, and lower back pain. I was wondering if there is a way to build the muscle that due to its absence we all have flat feet. I also have noticed my hips aren't aligned. Can you make a video on how to realign hips?
Did you find a solution to that? I think I messed up my hips from leaving my flat feet untreated and I was wondering if there was a way to fix it or if I'm screwed.
OMG!!! I REALLY APPRECIATE this video. my 7 year old daughter will complain that her feet hurt and will get tired of walking. I took her to her pediatrician and he said not to worry about it. Just to make sure I get her some kind of support like shoe insoles. she has flat feet.I ask him to, if we should go see a "food Dr." and he said no. But should I? can you give me any suggestion on other things that I should ask, buy or massage I can do for her feet? I would REALLY REALLY THANKYOU of you answer me.
+physicaltherapyvideo Hi,and thankyou for answering. I have buy "regular" insoles the ones they sale on pharmacies and super markets. is just that they don't seem to help. Thankyou again☺
Keep doing everything you can for your daughter. I know your comment is older, but thank you for caring & noticing. I didn't really have a clue about any of this, & in my late 30s, it all hit at once. I was a part time cane user before 40.
Being overweight can also contribute flat feet or to planter fasciitis causing pain behind the knee and also pain in the hips healthy dieting and exercise is the way to start not the gym
Try hip thrusts , squats , lunges , grow your glutes , also stretch!!! Stretch your hamstrings , calves , and ankles A LOT!!! You can reduce that pain , it just takes a bit of exercise over a few months
lets say im 16 years old, and are showing tendensies to flat feet, wont the support in shoes just make it worse when barefoot and make me dependent on shoes with support to walk properly?
One thing that massively helped and is helping me with flat feet is Musculus tibialis anterior training. it is one muscle that hardly mentioned with flat feet issue and exercise aimed just at training base of the foot does not help the actual cause. so i strongly advise training this muscle. theres loads of videos on TH-cam on how to do that. good luck!
I've always had flat feet and they had never given me any trouble till this point at my age of 59. I'm now having ankle pain and Posterior Tibialis Tendonitis. My inner ankle hurts so bad and it causes my foot to pronate even more. I've been advised medial arch supports but those are giving me new pains to the point that I start limping and then take them off altogether
Im 25 I went to the podiatrist and my right arch has completely fallen. My left arch is almost to that level. I suffer from extreme sharp pains in my right hip that cause trouble moving, walking, basically anything. I have been going to the chiropractor religiously, but it just helps temporarily and the pain comes back tenfold. I dont know what to do about it anymore :(
Someone please help me I do scare to get surgeries on my foot but I want to get it I’m 12 years old with flat foot. My left foot is flat but isn’t as bad my right is so bad when I wear shoes it creases. Sometime I depressed about it because a lot of people always look at it
Thanks, guys. Big question... wife has had flat feet for 30+ years. But now she has been diagnosed with hip impengement in one hip. She has hip pain in right hip almost all the time while walking. Could impengement pain be exacerbated or even caused by this? Could raising an arch be a fix? Both arches or just bad hip side? Thanks!
I'm 25 years old and I have extremely flat feet. I have exactly the same form that you described in this video. I'm starting to have severe lower back pain and knee pain, I can't go anywhere without dr.shols custom inserts...do you recommend surgery at this point ?
Yes. They left the option to me. Either have to use inserts for rest of my life or surgery. I just want to know if the people who took the surgery route are satisfied with their decision. The doctors told me I'm going to develop arthritis soon because of my feet and Im having lot of lower back pain and tense muscle in the growing area so I'm really considering it.
Me with severe flat feet: ah yes, it makes so much sense now 😂 when I was 13 my doctor said if negative arch were possible I would have it my feet are so bad. I work in a warehouse and let me tell ya if my shoes go bad, my feet absolutely kill me, and if I don’t wear my insoles for a few days in a row I even struggle a little.
I have very flat feet (always have) and don't have any of these issues, fortunately. I was told by my orthopedist that I shouldn't wear flat shoes, but they are so comfortable! I try to stay away from ridiculously flat shoes (i.e. shoes I can actually feel rocks through, or the warmth of the ground with), but if I don't have any problems whatsoever with my flat feet now, could I have issues in the future?
I am so worried. I have right flat foot. It looks so ugly in the mirror. It aches after a walk of almost 20 minutes and sometimes it aches even when I do not move.
I have flat feet and I'm in my 40s. I'm just sick of throwing out shoes because my feet look lopsided in my ballet flats. Thankfully I don't have any major issues because of my flat feet but I want my feet to look normal in a ballet flat
I have very flat wide feet and I wear proper footwear and custom made orthotics and I still have foot and knee pain. My podiatrist says I am a bad case, my foot is flat even when not standing. :(
K Michael look into procedure called hyprocure. I just got it done so I can’t say how I feel yet but I spoke to a lot of others who did and highly recommended it saying it changed their life
I've had flat, flat feet always. I had corrective shoes when I was a kid. Then getting older arch supports. None of that worked and just increased the pain. My back is flat looks like I don't have a butt. I'm 62 now and injured my left knee about 6 years ago. It all sucks but the best my feet ever feel is when I wear Chuck Taylor old school no arch flat hightop Converse basketball shoes. Arches in my shoes equals pain.
My grandma used to make me put my feet on buckets of Vaseline when I was younger like for hours each day. When my feet were super inflamed at school she would bring the Vaseline buckets to school and have me sit in the nurses office with them on my feet while on lunch. Some people saw me doing it and then I was called Vaseline Victor for a couple years
Gentlemen thanks for you are great demonstration i am 58 years old if i start the exercise for flat feet it would take how long to correct them and which store i can buy the motion control shoes waiting for you are earlier response.
What about training the feet? Shoes make the foot weak and the arches fall. Running barefoot in a field, minimalist shoes, and using a Foot Gym have helped me a lot.
So if I have flat feet and my knees feel sore then I have arthritis? And If I buy special shoes can I reverse it? My knees just recently started to feel sore. I'm 37 years old.
@@cooliocook6911 interesting! My doctor said i am of normal weight. I ended up buying some really good shoes with arch support. I also bought flip flops called oofos! They are heaven sent!
@@cooliocook6911 actually! I just realized something! You have a point regarding the weight! I was carrying a huge back pack around my University. So yeah the back packs weight and my feet caused the knee pain. You are right!
Regardless of weight, Callanetics (which came out in the 80s) & the Lotte Berk Method (from the 60s, but official videos came later) were designed to protect the back & knees. The older videos are a bit cheesy, but the important part is they work. There are modern teachers of Callanetics, & the Berk Method (anyone approved by Lotte's daughter Esther Fairfax is good). Lotte worked with an osteopath to develop her technique, & Callan trained with Lotte. Both types are are similar, but Callanetics seems a bit gentler; it's a good place to start. Just a tip from someone this has helped.
I have flat foot and a bunion on my left foot which has unbearable pain. I am getting my flat foot corrected first only on my left and hoping to see if that helps reduce the pain. But many thanks to you guys as I've always noticed pain on my knees while dancing and sometimes pain in my it band, I'm not sure if that could be related to flat feet
Is putting your feet inwards while walking a full feet trait or is it not necessary? I still question myself if I am full feet since my dad is. I also have serious ankle issues.
Probably this is why i am getting many muscle cramps in my inner thigh i have severe flat feet foot ankle inwards always throbbing pain putting on heels not really able to it looks like i am bow legs...Bob i don't want surgery what can i do at home haven't gone to doctors avoiding big bills ..what do you recommend.
I am only 13 and I have been having heel spurs, plantar fascitis, tendonitis, hip pain, mild back pain, and severe knee pain. (my knees have turned inwards quite a bit) My doctor said I have falling arches. I'm trying out shoe inserts but I'm wondering if maybe surgery or physical therapy may be better. I do dance though so I'm not sure if surgery would be better or worse.
im the same, im still trying to find the right shoe but if you search shoes for overpronation you may find something that fits, you will be after something with firm ankle support to stop ankle roll, a nice arch support, i think between 6-10 mil drop, a soft supportive midsole, a shoe that dosn't twist and only flexible through the toe box
my flat feet fucked me up this week and it sucks when I can't properly train my legs at the gym and might be a bit of a problem during my kickboxing class
I have had a fallen arch, knock knee on my right side since childhood. Last year, I was also diagnosed with moderate hip dysplasia and end stage osteoarthritis of the hip in that side . I will be having a hip replacement on that side in July. How will a hip replacement affect my foot and knee? Will they hurt more?
My right knee actually is the only one that hurts and when I don't wear my aurthotics for a couple months it starts hurting a lot and I cant walk sometimes cause it hurts so much.
hello sir my age is 19 and i have this problem in my right foot so sir what should i do and yes i don't have flat foot. Please tell me what should I do
i've had knee pain since the past 3 months and it developed over time playing sports. i didnt give it much thought but it came to a point where i couldn't walk without pain. an orthopedist told us it could be because of flat feet but i didn't get special shoes (i heard flat feet would get worse if you wear them regularly). so i stopped all physical activity and did exercises for strengthening the foot and now i have a much much better arch (to a point where the doctor said i didn't have severe flat feet anymore). but the knee pain has not gone at all! i can't find any other issue (neither can the docs).i am only 16 and freaked out. i would love some guidance. thank you sir.
I'm cursed with having Flat Wide and Large (for my size) feet that also point outwards quite alot when I stand normally so I'm definitely finding anything I can do to reduce the pain while eventually going to a foot doctor forgot what they are called but the pandemic isnt helping making the visit to one come any sooner.
Im in the same boat. Finally saw foot Dr. Putting it off caused me damage in my knees. Im in a lot of pain now. My arches cramp at night. Really painful. She told me which brand of rigid insole to get. 60 bucks. She said I have the flattest feet shes come across. I learned there are varying degrees of it from reading.
I swear flat feet is the number one cause of osgood schlatter decease for people over the age of 21.When I was 16 I had this decease and was told it will go away when the patella has stopped growing,well today I am 23 and still struggle with this injury until l I was told that I had flat feet.I started treating it,I got costume made shoe insoles. The moment I started wearing them I felt relieved,I could jump a bit without feeling a lot of pain on my knees.Its so frustrating that I wasted my time and money with orthopedics and physios.I play rugby and do boxing in my free time,as you can imagine there is a lot of stress on my hips,knees and angles,the effects are some much worst with flat feet.

I’m 18 and I have flat feet but I can see arch it a little unlike my dad who can’t even move it. If I start wearing braces all day will it help over time?
I have transverse flat feet. Haven't used insoles in years. I see my left foot calf is smaller than my right by nearly half an inch. Could this be due to flat feet?
Bob and Brad a question for you both. I've flat feet and it's affecting my karate stances. How can i correct it using relevant devices etc ar the moment I've got compression bands around my mid foot. My knees turn inwards if I try certain stances. My running is tackled by proper over pronation shoes. Please let me know how in karate i can help myself.

It all sucks but the best my feet ever feel is when I wear Chuck Taylor old school no arch flat hightop Converse basketball shoes. Arches in my shoes equals pain.
I have flat feet and i have ankle, knee and back pain. I'm only in my late 20s and I feel like an old lady with all these pains
Me too. It sucks
@Nassub Karihila élève I'm trying. I have shoes with special soles but still in pain :(
Love u guys
Thanks. I have flat feet and its impacting on my daily life.
Sir did u get any treatment? If yes pls let me know.
My grandma used to make me put my feet on buckets of Vaseline when I was younger like for hours each day. When my feet were super inflamed at school she would bring the Vaseline buckets to school and have me sit in the nurses office with them on my feet while on lunch. Some people saw me doing it and then I was called Vaseline Victor for a couple years
How do you fix uneven hips caused by a one legged knock knee

Gentlemen thanks for you are great demonstration i am 58 years old if i start the exercise for flat feet it would take how long to correct them and which store i can buy the motion control shoes waiting for you are earlier response.
What about training the feet? Shoes make the foot weak and the arches fall. Running barefoot in a field, minimalist shoes, and using a Foot Gym have helped me a lot.
So if I have flat feet and my knees feel sore then I have arthritis? And If I buy special shoes can I reverse it? My knees just recently started to feel sore. I'm 37 years old.
Votre Ami I had knee pain in my thirties because of this. I was also very overweight . I lost 50lbs and the weight in my knees disappeared.
@@cooliocook6911 interesting! My doctor said i am of normal weight. I ended up buying some really good shoes with arch support. I also bought flip flops called oofos! They are heaven sent!
Votre Ami thanks for the tip! I’m going to check those out!
@@cooliocook6911 actually! I just realized something! You have a point regarding the weight! I was carrying a huge back pack around my University. So yeah the back packs weight and my feet caused the knee pain. You are right!
Regardless of weight, Callanetics (which came out in the 80s) & the Lotte Berk Method (from the 60s, but official videos came later) were designed to protect the back & knees. The older videos are a bit cheesy, but the important part is they work.
There are modern teachers of Callanetics, & the Berk Method (anyone approved by Lotte's daughter Esther Fairfax is good). Lotte worked with an osteopath to develop her technique, & Callan trained with Lotte. Both types are are similar, but Callanetics seems a bit gentler; it's a good place to start.
Just a tip from someone this has helped.
Do you have suggestions for using a roll for someone with hip trouble and frozen shoulder?
+physicaltherapyvideo Thank you. I will talk to my chiropractor. 😊
I have flat foot and a bunion on my left foot which has unbearable pain. I am getting my flat foot corrected first only on my left and hoping to see if that helps reduce the pain. But many thanks to you guys as I've always noticed pain on my knees while dancing and sometimes pain in my it band, I'm not sure if that could be related to flat feet
Informative video. Can i refer you to a new chiropractic directory to publish your video? No charge
My husband has incredibly flat feet. He's experiencing hip & knee pain. Poor thing. 💔😭💔
Is putting your feet inwards while walking a full feet trait or is it not necessary? I still question myself if I am full feet since my dad is. I also have serious ankle issues.
Probably this is why i am getting many muscle cramps in my inner thigh i have severe flat feet foot ankle inwards always throbbing pain putting on heels not really able to it looks like i am bow legs...Bob i don't want surgery what can i do at home haven't gone to doctors avoiding big bills ..what do you recommend.
I am only 13 and I have been having heel spurs, plantar fascitis, tendonitis, hip pain, mild back pain, and severe knee pain. (my knees have turned inwards quite a bit) My doctor said I have falling arches. I'm trying out shoe inserts but I'm wondering if maybe surgery or physical therapy may be better. I do dance though so I'm not sure if surgery would be better or worse.
Sarah Reed go to Amazon and search Superfeet. They're insoles. My PT put me onto them and help a lot
@@lisag18 Spenco Total Support Max insoles are also one of the very best you can get for flat feet.
I have pretty bad flat feet... it goes all the way down, squashes on the ground and spreads :( anyone have any shoe suggestions?
im the same, im still trying to find the right shoe but if you search shoes for overpronation you may find something that fits, you will be after something with firm ankle support to stop ankle roll, a nice arch support, i think between 6-10 mil drop, a soft supportive midsole, a shoe that dosn't twist and only flexible through the toe box
my flat feet fucked me up this week and it sucks when I can't properly train my legs at the gym and might be a bit of a problem during my kickboxing class
Flat feet, painful knees and lower back. Five years in the infantry *definitely* didn't help...
I have had a fallen arch, knock knee on my right side since childhood. Last year, I was also diagnosed with moderate hip dysplasia and end stage osteoarthritis of the hip in that side .
I will be having a hip replacement on that side in July.
How will a hip replacement affect my foot and knee? Will they hurt more?
WHAT A NICE INTRODUCTION
SHITTER
Little feet video ofc
its BiS ofc
ooh ooh! the little Magmadar !! ofc!
I was born flat feet. Now i'm 19 is it fixable?
Do flat feet cause stress fracture?
My right knee actually is the only one that hurts and when I don't wear my aurthotics for a couple months it starts hurting a lot and I cant walk sometimes cause it hurts so much.
Hey sir you both are doing great job.
But one serious request ,please add English subtitles.I can't catch your accent of English.
I'm not flat footed instead my feet over supinates/anti pronates and I get lateral arch pain. Is there a suggestion would gel insoles help.
Do you guys recommend flat foot reconstruction surgery?
hello sir my age is 19 and i have this problem in my right foot so sir what should i do and yes i don't have flat foot. Please tell me what should I do
I’m 15 and I never knew that my flat feet is causing my knee to hurt
But i can fix it with continuous exercise with foot exercise i always wondered y i always had hip knee and foot pain for all these years
Your voice was always not loud enough.
Does motion control shoes cures or just corrects when only wearing the shoes?
How long should I use arch support insole. I feel better after 2 weeks. Knee pain is gone.
I have back pain, can that be an effect of flat feet🥺🥺😢 I'm only 18 too
You just need to workout , grow your glutes with hip thrusts , and squats for the legs , glutes will support the back! Good luck
@@doves5457 thankssss dear😊❤️
Great info for my 9 yo... super flat-footed and knee knocked.....poor little guy! BTW....Love the intro song....made me laugh
i've had knee pain since the past 3 months and it developed over time playing sports. i didnt give it much thought but it came to a point where i couldn't walk without pain. an orthopedist told us it could be because of flat feet but i didn't get special shoes (i heard flat feet would get worse if you wear them regularly). so i stopped all physical activity and did exercises for strengthening the foot and now i have a much much better arch (to a point where the doctor said i didn't have severe flat feet anymore). but the knee pain has not gone at all! i can't find any other issue (neither can the docs).i am only 16 and freaked out. i would love some guidance. thank you sir.
***** i appreciate your response
Hey I have the same problem any solutions?
Knee pain can be because of cartilage
I have flat feet and tore both hip labrums, do you think flat feet are the main cause?
It’s gotten so bad my ankles just pound after running and I can’t feel my feet just my ankles and knees
I'm cursed with having Flat Wide and Large (for my size) feet that also point outwards quite alot when I stand normally so I'm definitely finding anything I can do to reduce the pain while eventually going to a foot doctor forgot what they are called but the pandemic isnt helping making the visit to one come any sooner.
Im in the same boat. Finally saw foot Dr. Putting it off caused me damage in my knees. Im in a lot of pain now. My arches cramp at night. Really painful. She told me which brand of rigid insole to get. 60 bucks. She said I have the flattest feet shes come across. I learned there are varying degrees of it from reading.
I swear flat feet is the number one cause of osgood schlatter decease for people over the age of 21.When I was 16 I had this decease and was told it will go away when the patella has stopped growing,well today I am 23 and still struggle with this injury until l I was told that I had flat feet.I started treating it,I got costume made shoe insoles. The moment I started wearing them I felt relieved,I could jump a bit without feeling a lot of pain on my knees.Its so frustrating that I wasted my time and money with orthopedics and physios.I play rugby and do boxing in my free time,as you can imagine there is a lot of stress on my hips,knees and angles,the effects are some much worst with flat feet.
Hi team, I am from india, do you have any centre over here. Also I am 27 now and suffering from flat foot and knock knees. Please let me how can I connect with you
I only wear shoes if I am outside I wear my crew socks if I am inside public places I go bare foot if it's nice out then I put my socks on when I get there. I have very painful flatfeet when I wear shoes for a longtime my feet are also flat when I walk barefoot.
I’m 18 and I have flat feet but I can see arch it a little unlike my dad who can’t even move it. If I start wearing braces all day will it help over time?
No, look for exercises
Will check family and Friends for flat Feet ! Napoléon BoneApart looking very surprised today. You called him Léopold ? is that his second name?
I have transverse flat feet. Haven't used insoles in years. I see my left foot calf is smaller than my right by nearly half an inch. Could this be due to flat feet?
Bob and Brad a question for you both. I've flat feet and it's affecting my karate stances. How can i correct it using relevant devices etc ar the moment I've got compression bands around my mid foot. My knees turn inwards if I try certain stances. My running is tackled by proper over pronation shoes. Please let me know how in karate i can help myself.
Thank you for the video
So there is no way to treat flat feet right
I started to hate the way I look because I have flat foot, knock knees, and wide hip 😭 I can’t go outside and No clothes fit me without revealing how bad my body looks. I just can’t accept this 💔
