Flat Feet Condition

If you have flat feet, Dr. Mark Forman can help you put your best foot forward. You have flat feet when the arches on the inside of your feet are flattened, allowing the entire soles of your feet to touch the floor when you stand up. A significant amount of people with fallen arches (flat feet) experience no pain and have no problems. However, some people with flat feet can experience foot pain, particularly in the heel or arch area.


Flat feet are generally associated with pronation, a leaning inward of the ankle bones toward the center line. Some people have flat feet because of a developmental fault during childhood, while others may find that the problem develops as they age, or after a pregnancy. Symptoms may vary and generally depend on the severity of the condition, but there are some simple devices that Dr. Mark Forman could suggest which may prevent the complications of flat feet.


If you have flat feet and would like to discuss your treatment options, give us a call. To learn more about the services Dr. Mark Forman provides, visit www.azfootpain.com for more information. To schedule an appointment with Dr. Mark Forman in Scottsdale, AZ, call 480-423-8400.
