Me too they hurt a lot even with insoles

@@cindymwambi9732 make sure its the right ones with arch support, the others are not good for flar feet
To be fair I have even had customised insoles nothing works my back pains when I walk. Like a lot
I'm 25. I have flat feet. I have a mixed lifestyle. During normal walks and being idol, I never felt pain. But when I exercise a lot, especially running and jumping, I feel some pain in the arch area. The fact that worries me is my performance level. Because of flat feet, I am unable to reach my full potential.
Yeah that was the same for me about a year ago. I’m not feeling any pain when exercising but I’m not sure if it will come back.
I have it too I feel it causes my spine some pain.
I used to but I noticed the more and more I worked out it just kinda stopped. Now I can run 6 miles a day with no pain at all.
I feel you. When I did high jump I had horrible foot pain by the end. And when I go walking for a distance without orthotics I have a similar pain
I know how that feels. I recently got into boxing and little did I know how much pain the footwork cause.
I was born with flat feet I’m 17 I’ve played sports all my life and have never felt pain.
update: still nothing.
Me too man, I'm 20, I had some pain during my teens but nothing much. To be fair I'm more concerned with how it looks...
I’m 16 & ever since I started working I’ve been on my feet all day, I can feel all the pressure coming down on where my foot is supposed to arch and it hurts like HELL☹️
This flat foot causes pain when u get older....may b in 50s or so....

heres some ways to treat our feet
custom made orthotics, good supportive shoes (im using light joggers with good ankle and arch support), RICE (rest, ice, compress, elevate), healthy diet, steroid injections to the painful area and physio.

When my feet hurt I just think how lucky I am to not have a spinal injury of something like that
Lola Dog yes true but you can help yourself by opening up your hip muscles
I have flat feet and up until I was 13 and became more physically active, they never bothered me. Now the pain can be excruciating in the soles of my feet all the way to my back. Great video, now I understand and what’s up with my feet.
I have flat feet and I am very bad at some physical activities, I regret treating this sooner.

I didnt know that i am flat footed until one of my friends saw my feet and asked me if i am flat footed. She checked my feet and said i am.
Now i know why most of the times my ankle, knees and back hurts and my job requires me to stand. Most of the time i almost like dragged my left leg going home because it hurts a lot.
Now i know why i am like this.
I haven’t been able to run in almost 2 months because my flat feet decide to ache ;))
SiR GriNdeR because your flutes are weak and hips too tight ***
most of my issues are back pain. sadly i cant even bend and im 47 the amount of tension on my back has always been huge.
I’ve played sports growing up, and I suffered a few ankle sprains and fractures while being flat foot. Never was bothered by any pain until the past few months. Feels like I’m being stabbed in the foot no 🧢
I’m flat footed and I recently been feeling pain on my right foot. I don’t really understand why I’m feeling this pain now and that I haven’t felt it sooner.

I have flat feet and a terrible tendency to roll/sprain my ancles, mostly the left one. It's happened so many times now that whenever I roll my ancles, it does not hurt anymore and I just walk it off. Sure, I might feel some stiffness for a few hours but never anything major.
21 years old, when i stand my feet start popping and cracking like crazy
Ik there’s treatments but are there things that will permanently cure it?
Can a person “develop” flat feet as we age?
Ty I needed this to learn this bc my feet are rlly flat

I have flat feet, and I had a track meet and oh boy did that kill me everyday after track meet
My feet especially my left foot is causing me so much pain i want to cry
Huh, I always thought the foot got flat because of the underdeveloped muscles in the foot.
Is it true that if you use orhtopädic insoles your muscles in your feet get even more "lazy" and everything gets worse? And that you are supposed to train the muscles in order to fix it as the only longlasting solution?
I have flat feet, and I don't hurt it from walking and running at all. In fact, my feet don't hurt but my body does. My joints in the whole body make noises and my elbow joints, shoulders and my right knee inflame from time to time. I also have poor posture.
Look up Hyprocure stint. I’ve been suffering with flat feet for 15 years now, and it’s giving me serious issues with both knees and lower back. I’m going next week for this procedure that takes approximately 10 minutes for podiatrist to do, but recovery time is about 2 or 3 weeks off that foot. I’m praying that it will help me bc I haven’t been able to walk a lot bc of the pain. Tried different insoles and even custom insoles, nothing works. I’m ready! Wish me luck please.
I was born with flat feet and play sports and I have had problems with my hips and lower back pain only when I’m running but doesn’t happen every time only happens if i do a cut to sharpe or something
I have flat feet , I used to go to the foot clinic if N.Y. in Harlem to have arch supports made . They named my kind of flat footedness the banana peel. I am still flat footed but I suffer with hip back knee and ankle pain daily. I have been to the Mt. Sanai about this pain and they found nothing except gas in the sacrum . Could my over all pain be because of my flat feet ?
Does anyone elses feet hurt more when they wear arch support insoles?
I was born with flat feet I'm 13 and I play sports and doing work but my feet hurt and I walk wrong the middle of my foot on the bottom hurts the most, and if I stand up and do work in one place the muscles tighten up and makes my foot freeze a little bit then it does the same when I do the Michael Jackson tippy toes thing
Im 17 and ive wrestled and flayed football since i was six and have wide feet and that shit hurts all the time during practice
I’m a pretty young guy, fresh outta HighSchool and 18. I’ve always had flat feet, and it didn’t start hurting until I actually started to get into sports at a young age (I used to be pretty fat as a kid and it only ever hurt after very long or explosive/intense training sessions). Is the pain supposed to feel like a cramped foot? When I reached the end of middle school, the pain went away. I’m pretty athletic and I’m still self training to this day with no pain since I was young. I was wondering if I simply just conditioned the pain away or what? I’m still a little confused on the idea because I know a lot of people my age with flat feet, some claiming for it to hurt, and some not. So what’s the deal exactly? Really curious now.
yeah to me it feels like a cramp by where the arch is suppose to be
The pain tends to be when you have overpronation (which I have “ I recommend getting the hypocure treatment im about to thru thag procedure in 2 weeks
I know your comment is three years old but it’s crazy how we can be 18 or 20 and be working hard at the gym (for sports or whatever) and then suddenly we feel different. This flat foot condition makes me feel 80!
Weight loss makes a difference too
Inserts help the pain

i have flexible flat feet 22 years old and i observed it last year while watching a army recruitment video , the thing is i don't feel pain yet , i have a type of flat feet called flexible flat feet i.e. they flatten while i stand but they form arch when i stand on my heels and when i pushes my toes outwards
Same are you double jointed as well ?
@@b_2646what is double jointed?

We gotta think of it this way you would rather have flat feet than have no feet like some people out there in this world, there is always someone out there who has more pain than u so we should be grateful for what we have.

yeah, flat feet puts more pressure on your feet. i sometimes would underperform at a physical job requiring heavy lifting, when i just have flat feet that cause more pain.
i am born with wide feet already, and to complicate the matter, in my childhood and teens i was obese and that gave me flat feet. now that i am fit, the feet remain flat and wide, it's not really painful yet, but i can't wear nice shoes and fancy sneakers that i like for a long time since they become a stomped mess after two weeks. i really wish my feet was narrow and i controlled my food habits when i was a child
Watching this gave me foot pain😭😭😭
