Specializes in Orthopedic Reconstructive Surgery

See an orthopaedist: High arches themselves are common and do not necessarily correlate with problems. Consult with an orthopaedic surgeon and consider an evaluation with a physical therapist to see with their are aspects of your running style that need modifications.
