Arch pain: The midfoot consist of 4 joints. Anyone of them could me effected if the orthotics are not properly supporting your foot. You should have your podiatrist exam your foot. You should have an x-ray to evaluate you bone structure.

Orthotics: The arch comprises several bones that need to be x rayed before making orthotics. See a podiatrist for further care.
