Kids with Flat Feet

[lilsaintsm0m]

I recently just found out na may over pronation ang son ko. His foot weighs in on his inner soles.This causes his lower limb to hurt most of the time due to uneven distribution of weight.
Are there other moms here who have kids who has flat feet/ collapsed arch, pronation? Where do you get feet orthoses insoles? Is Pt required to treat such? Tia

Im not a mom sis but my friend and i have/ had flat feet.

I didnt correct it nung bata pako. Now nagsisisi ako. Nagcollapse na daw yung middle part ng feet ko which brings me continual pain everyday.

My friend, on the other hand, wore arch support inside her school shoes then. Nacorrect na yung arch na and she has no problem na.

my grandson has the same problem, flat feet over pronation, namana sa tatay niyang kano  . he has custom orthotics from the orthopedic doctor (here in the US).  measurements/molds of his feet were taken, sent to some lab/place.  he wears that inside his shoes most of the time.
i don't think he undergoes PT for that.
i feel bad for him nga when i see him,  his knees are touching when he's standing.    but it has not affected him yet, other than some minor pain once in a while (or baka gusto lang niya that he gets carried pag tinatamad maglakad sa mall,  ).  he's an active 4 year old, plays soccer and t-ball,  rides the scooter very well and fast.  and he runs fast too!  go figure.

My daughter has (semi) flat feet, yung sa normal na paa may arch di ba, yung sa kanya may flesh or muscle sa supposed arch, namana sa tatay. I never heard her complain about it though yun nga lang parang di girly and dating kasi medyo malaki na yung shoe size nya. I recently bought her school shoes na 37 ang size, she's just turning 10 and may kapayatan.

Common problem pala talaga ito mga sis. Meron din genu valgum(knocked knee) son ko. Kaya pala mukhang madadapa pag tumatakbo. We had his feet checked sa Dr Kong. Wala silang stock ng insoles for his size. Pwede pa siya macorrect I think hanggang 14 yrs old ata.. I need those insoles na kasi mahirap sa kanya lalo na nag fefencing siya.
 Pag di naagapan pwede nga  mangyari yung collapsed arched.
