Your foot structure plays a major role in how you walk, absorb shock, and distribute weight. When arches are too low (flat feet) or too high (high arches), it can change alignment throughout the feet, ankles, knees, and even hips. Flat feet may lead to overpronation, heel pain, arch strain, and tendon issues. High arches, on the other hand, often place excess pressure on the heels and balls of the feet, increasing the risk of stress fractures, ankle instability, and calluses.
Understanding your foot type is key to preventing pain and choosing the right footwear or orthotics. Dr. Jeffrey S. Muroff, DPM, offers comprehensive evaluations to assess foot structure and create personalized treatment plans that support long-term comfort and mobility. Call to learn more!
