Orthotics don’t work

(3 discussions)

My orthotics don’t help my foot pain at all, and in some cases make my pain worse.
I have really flat feet and even my foot doctor has given up and sent me to another doctor.
What is left for me?

    It’s me again. What are the details of surgey, what can I expect?

    I can’t give a definitive answer without examining you.If you have a flexible flatfoot, then a surgical procedure can be a consideration.If the orthotics that were made were inadequate for your problem, new ones might be considered.

      If you doctor does this type of surgery, I suggest you get the information from him/her. I do not perform this type of surgery so I am sorry I can not help you.
