Can flat feet be corrected with orthotics?

    If flat feet are detected, they can be corrected with corrective insoles or surgery.

    However, it is recommended to treat under the guidance of a doctor.

    Generally speaking, if it is mild flat feet, it is more suitable to be corrected with corrective insoles.

    However, if it is moderate or even moderate flat feet, it is more difficult to correct it with corrective insoles. Of course, the use of corrective insoles has a certain relief effect.

    In addition, if it is an adult, even if it is mild, it is difficult to completely cure flat feet with corrective insoles, because the foot bones of adults have been fixed and are difficult to change, but it has a certain relief effect on foot discomfort.

    If it is a child, especially between 6 and 13 years old, because the feet are not fully mature, if flat feet occur, they can be corrected with corrective insoles. Of course, correction needs to be carried out under the guidance of professionals.

    For children under 6 years old, the arch of the foot is often not yet formed. Even if the sole of the foot looks flat, it is normal and belongs to physiological flat feet. 

    Generally, it does not need to be corrected with corrective insoles unless there is very obvious discomfort. However, it still needs to be examined in detail by a doctor and targeted treatment should be carried out.
