Certain deformities of the foot can cause the arch to lower dramatically. Sometimes referred to as “fallen arches,” this condition can be painful for most of those who experience it, and can cause ancillary strain to the ankles, knees, and lower back. Podiatrists are able to address problems associated with flat feet by prescribing custom orthotics, or, in certain cases, corrective surgery.
