Arch supports: Over pronating can cause patella (knee cap) dysfunction, which can hurt. Over pronation can worsen while running due to fatigue, causing excessive rotation of the tibia (shinbone). This issue should be easy to control with arch supports. Try over the counter supports, find a professional if they are not enough.
