No I have high arched feet

Answer 4

i have horribly flat feet. i have thrown out my hip sprinting, i will constantly have knee pains and feet & hip pain. BUT i have these things called orthotics which support the arch and they help A LOT! i also wear ankle braces. because my feet have no arch, my ankle isnt very strong. without the braces and orthotics...i wouldn't be able to play sports...

Answer 7

yea my arch is very low...not really an arch there, so yes its pretty much flat...and i have knee problems because of this.. I have to tape and go to physical therapy for it...but i also have osgoodshlauter (sp?),,and i dont know if i have that because of my flat feet...but im guessing its a possibilty..it really sucks!!!...but i wear lifts in my shoes and that helps.

Answer 8

Very flat. M/y dad has them too. Im 16.

Causes severe knee problems. I have patella tendinosis, because my flat knees cause me to be knock knee'd and my hips are uneven, so my spine is curved the wrong way (back problems/scoliosis) and that makes my shoulders uneven...shoulder problems.
