Should I see a Podiatrist if I have Flat Feet?
Many people with flat feet may show no signs of symptoms or problems. However, over time problems may begin to occur. At times pain may occur because of changes in work habits, injury, weight gain, excessive walking, jumping or standing and poor fitting footwear. Fatigue may occur at times.
Wearing properly fitting shoes and shoes with built in arch supports can help if you have issues because of flat feet. A podiatrist can diagnose and prescribe proper orthotics to reduce discomfort or pain because of flat feet.
