High Arched Foot
High Arched Foot
High arched feet can vary in their extent and severity. Sometimes it can be a manifestation of a long- standing neurological condition. In other cases no clear cause can be found. Pronounced deformity can lead to different problems such as stress fractures of foot bones, stubborn corns, plantar fasciitis, heel pain and frequent ankle sprains.
Treatment varies from stretching exercises and insoles to a complex surgery to correct a significant deformity. These days newer less invasive techniques are available with less tissue injury and faster recovery. I regularly perform such procedures. Recovery after surgery can take several months.
A high arched foot, or cavus foot, features an unusually raised arch, causing uneven weight distribution, foot pain, instability, and difficulty walking. Proper footwear, supportive insoles, and targeted exercises can help manage discomfort and improve overall foot function.
