Question 1

Not possible: There is no way to "correct" the structure of your foot (non surgically). If symptommatic, orthotics can be used to "adjust" the foot. If truly symptommatic, surgical options exist.

Question 4

my left foot arch starts to hurt after standing up for an extended period. should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Tibial tendonitis: Arch pain is related to the posterior tibial tendon which can attempt to over-fire against the ground, causing acute pain and tendonitis in the arch.  Wearing more supportive arch shoes such as running sneakers or supportive dress shoes may help.  Wearing an arch support orthotic will also help.  See a local podiatrist to help you find the right fit for your foot.

Question 5

i have a pain in my foot arch that is progressively getting worse. could it be to do with recently breaking my leg? what can i do to manage the pain?

Accepted Answer

Yes , can be related: Arch pain due can be caused by a number of reasons.  If you were  casted or immobilized for the leg break, sometimes this will cause soft tissues to become irritated. A leg break can cause  an injury to a nerve which can be responsible for arch pain. I recommend that you see a doctor who can evaluate and treat your arch pain. You may want to ask your doctor about physical therapy.  Good luck!

Try this: Arch pain, especially after walking, is very common and many times responds to simple arch supports.
