Flat Foot Problems
Flat feet of themselves are not necessarily a problem. But people with a flat foot or the opposite condition, a highly arched foot, that are painful, are certainly in need of treatment. Flat feet and high arches that are associated with ankle, knee or low back pain are also in need of treatment.
The causes of flat feet are many, but in the older age group decreased exercise and increased weight add to the mechanical disturbances of the foot. Flat feet can also produce conditions known as heel spurs and/or plantar fascitis.
The best and first line of defense for a flat foot condition is a good supportive shoe. Over-the-counter items such as Dr. Scholls are beneficial, but the most effective means of controlling flat foot or a high arched foot are comfort-designed Shoes like Dawgs footwear.
