A member asked:

My son 7 1/2 have over pronated flexible feet. i am worried since they over pronate a lot. are they going to get better as he grows older? thanks

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask your doctor: Lower leg mobility is generally highest in toddlers and should be fairly stable by seven. If the pronation is causing problems walking or causing pain or the feet are hard to fit for shoes I would ask your doctor for advice to see if you need an evaluation by an orthopedic doctor-
