Flat feet are one cause of foot and ankle pain. It sometimes starts in childhood if your feet do not develop properly. Young children often have flat feet but usually outgrow it. Some people are more prone to have flat feet because of genetics.
Other people develop flat feet over time. Not everyone with flat feet experiences pain from the condition. The most common causes of adult-onset flat feet include the following:
✅Obesity, because the bones in your feet have more difficulty bearing more weight
✅Age: flat feet are most common over the age of 40
✅High blood pressure, which can reduce the blood flow to your feet
✅Previous injuries to the feet, such as stress fractures
✅Diabetes
✅Arthritis
✅Damage to any of the bones or tendons in your feet
