What should I do if I have high arched feet?

  High arched foot is a common foot deformity, usually secondary to disease, i.e., no deformity at birth, often secondary to neuromuscular diseases such as spinal corticism, cerebral palsy, cerebrospinal spinal bulge, neural tube closure insufficiency, etc. Clinical manifestations are very similar to clubfoot, often manifesting as: a marked increase in the arch of the foot, inversion of the heel bone, and the medial side of the forefoot spinning out of the plantar does not touch the ground.  Mild high arch foot can be taken to passively pull the contracted plantar fascia and shortened intrinsic plantar muscles. To relieve the pressure on the metatarsal head, the weight is evenly distributed, but these measures can only alleviate the symptoms, neither correct the high arched foot deformity, nor prevent the deformity from worsening.  When the high arched foot has prevented weight-bearing walking and shoe wearing, or when it is progressively aggravated and walking pain occurs, then surgical treatment should be considered. Surgical methods can be divided into soft tissue release and bony surgery. In principle, soft tissue surgery is performed first, such as soft tissue release of the plantar side of the foot, displacement of the anterior and posterior tibial tendons and posterior displacement of the long toe extensors. If soft tissue surgery still fails to correct the deformity, or if older children have fixed high arched foot deformity, orthopedic surgery can be chosen.
