A member asked:
I'm getting my accessory navicular bone taken out but i won't need a cast. but after examining my xray he said that my support is bad. what's that?

support: The doctor maybe referring to long term support (inserts/orthotics) after healing from surgery. Ask the doctor for better clarification.

Arch may be low: Probably saying the support of your foot is not enough, meaning you have a low arch or flat foot.
