Flat Feet
Flat feet, also known as fallen arches or pes planus, is a common condition where the arches of the feet are flattened, causing the entire sole of the foot to come into contact with the ground when standing. While flat feet may not always cause symptoms, some individuals may experience pain, discomfort, and foot-related problems. At Newcastle Foot Clinic and Orthotics, our team of experienced chiropodists specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of flat feet, offering personalized care to alleviate symptoms and improve foot function.

Understanding Flat Feet
Flat feet occur when the arches of the feet fail to develop properly during childhood or collapse over time due to factors such as genetics, age, obesity, injury, or certain medical conditions.
