The arches of the foot are formed by the tarsal and metatarsal bones, and strengthened by ligaments and tendons, allow the foot to support the weight of the body in the erect posture with the least weight. The arches are categorized as:
[edit] PathologyInsufficiently expressed arches are called low or fallen arches. The term flat feet applies to the arch which is sitting on the ground completely. Medium arches are sometimes called "normal arches", but the name "normal arches" could be a misnomer, as nobody has really normal arches inside their actual feet. Exaggerated arches, on the other hand, are the somewhat less common high arches, or "pes cavus", particularly if high arches cause trouble or problems. But contrary to popular studying, people with high arches don't always hurt around certain portions of the foot. And some high arches may be very flexible in the foot, though some can be inflexible. High arches may be beneficial whenever treated correctly and could perform as good as the medium arch if treated right and properly. [edit] Arch stylesContrary to popular belief the real definitions of "average" arches are rather poorly defined and not very clear. Some people have low arches without problems or health matters. Flat footed people may become affected with problems, but this isn't always the case. Many people are born with their feet having no arch or extremely low arches. High arches-contrary to popular belief-are sometimes beneficial. In fact, some people who have high arches have no significant health issues. But sometimes, high arches may lead to problems. Arch studies, however, sometimes suffer from substandard data and poorly defined information.[citation needed] [edit] See also[edit] External links
