Flat feet, or fallen arches, occur when the arch of the foot collapses, leading to the entire sole coming into contact with the ground. This condition can be congenital or develop over time due to factors such as injury, aging, or weight gain. While many people with flat feet experience no symptoms, some may experience discomfort, pain in the feet, ankles, or lower back, and fatigue due to improper foot alignment.

Treatment for flat feet may include supportive footwear, orthotic inserts, and stretching or strengthening exercises to improve foot function and reduce pain. In more severe cases, physical therapy or surgery may be recommended. It’s important to address flat feet early to prevent long-term issues.
