old custom orthotics

About 10-15 years ago I purchased custom orthotics to alleviate knee pain from running.
I took several years off of running, had two babies, gained a bunch of weight that I’ve since lost and have been running a couple times a week for the past year.
I started wearing my old orthotics again because I was experiencing ankle discomfort.
I still experience ankle discomfort (feels out of alignment).
Could my foot have changed causing my old orthotics to no longer be effective?
Thank you for your help!

    yes, it is very likely that your feet has changed due to some of the things you mentioned. You probably need to be reevaluated for new orthotics
