A member asked:

Can dropped arches make your feet feel tingly?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Tingles: Yes it can by causing tarsal tunnel syndrome. Prescription orthotics from a podiatrist can help a lot.

Possible: It's possible, but usually it's nerve entrapment or some nerve issue that causes "tingling" pain. Although fallen arches can lead to swelling, tendon pathology and foot deformity, it's.
