Welcome to the world of bio mechanics. You would need an exam to determine exactly the cause of this “deformity” which is very common . With this condition overpronation is quite common and therefore you are very susceptible to overuse injuries. If you participate with any type of sport that requires walking or running may require the need of orthotics from a sports medicine podiatrist
