    Arch Pain/Strain

The term arch pain (often referred to as arch strain) refers to an inflammation and/or burning sensation at the arch of the foot. Arch pain is caused by inflammation from excessive stretching of the plantar fascia, usually due to over-pronation. Left untreated, strain on the longitudinal arch continues and spurs may develop.

    Claw Toes

A claw toe is a toe that is contracted at the PIP and DIP joints (middle and end joints in the toe), and can lead to severe pressure and pain. Ligaments that have tightened cause the toe's joints to curl downwards. This can cause discomfort at the top part of the toe that is rubbing against the shoe. Movement is very limited and can be extremely painful.

    Over Pronation (Flat Feet)

Over-pronation, or flat feet, is a common biomechanical problem that occurs in the walking process when a person's arch collapses upon weight bearing. This condition can cause extreme stress or inflammation on the plantar fascia, potentially causing severe discomfort and leading to other foot problems. Over-pronation occurs when the framework of the foot begins to collapse, causing the foot to flatten.
