What are Flat Feet and Dropped or Fallen Arches?
What are Flat Feet and Dropped or Fallen Arches?
Flat feet, also known as pes planus, occur when the arch of the foot is flattened, causing the entire sole to touch the floor when standing. For some, flat feet are a natural part of their anatomy, while others develop it later in life due to factors like injury, rheumatoid arthritis, or sudden weight gain. Regardless of the cause, flat feet can lead to discomfort, pain, and challenges with balance and mobility.

Causes of Flat Feet or Fallen Arches
Flat feet can develop due to a variety of factors, and while some individuals are born with it, others develop it later in life. In adults, fallen or dropped arches may occur due to factors like injury or trauma, which can weaken the tendons supporting the arch. Rheumatoid arthritis, a chronic inflammatory condition, can also damage joints and lead to flat feet over time.
Additional factors include being overweight, which increases pressure on the feet, and chronic conditions like diabetes, which can weaken the muscles and tendons.
