Arch Pain is the inflammation of the foot arch - the fibrous band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes.
The main factors that may lead to someone experiencing Arch Pain are: over-stretching of the arch , which can cause tiny tears in the ligament; structural imbalances such as over-pronation; or abnormally flat feet.
The most common treatments for Arch Pain can include use of orthotic aids such as arch supports, heel wedges, gel heel cups, metatarsal pads and pain killers.
About Orthopedic Shoes:
Orthopedic Shoes are shoes designed for people with problem-prone feet. Orthopedic shoes should have a firm heel, a heel that is not too high, a wide toe box, and a rigid shank (inner construction material) for stability. Orthopedic Shoes may also be referred to as Pedorthic Shoes.
