Buckling flat foot

Symptoms

Even an advanced flat foot does not necessarily cause discomfort. Often, load-dependent pain occurs behind the inner ankle and outer ankle.

Causes

Almost always genetic cause.

Therapy

Insoles and physiotherapy to strengthen the foot muscles are usually sufficient. In cases of pain despite conservative treatment with insoles, we usually perform a correction of the hindfoot(calcaneus osteotomy/Evansoperation ) in adolescence with great success.
