Flat feet occur when the arches in one or both feet are absent or collapse over time. While some individuals are born with this condition, others may develop it later in life due to improper footwear, certain medical conditions, or injuries to the Achilles tendon, foot or ankle.
When left unmanaged, flat feet can place added strain on the muscles, ligaments, and joints. This can potentially affect mobility and increase the risk of plantar fasciitis and bunions.
Treatment for flat feet first involves non-surgical means like orthotics, physiotherapy and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In cases where symptoms do not improve despite treatment, surgical intervention may be recommended.
