Suggestions for flat feet



So, the other day I was looking at Jake's feet and noticed that his ankles were totally rolling in! When he first learned how to walk I noticed how flat his feet were, but I thought that it might be just because he had cute chubby feet. I should have noticed it sooner. Flat feet totally run in my family. Has anyone had to deal with this with their kids? I'm thinking he might need insoles or something. I definitely want to take him to the doctor when I get back. Any information would be helpful. Thanks!

I was talking to my aunt (she is a physical therapist) awhile back because my feet turn in a little like that and she told me I would need orthodics. Good luck. I hope you are liking where you are at.

My husband has flat feet and he has to wear insoles, but I don't know what they do with kids.

Hey, I hope everything is well with you guy's out there. My brother-in-law is a great podiatrist in Utah and he has an office just down the road from the american fork hospital. HE's great and I'll bet he will put him orthodics. Some of His kids started wearing orthodics when they we're 2 or so.
