Ankle pain from Flat Feet. what is the best shoes or inserts
|
|
My 15 year old has flat feel(can't remember medical name). his feet has no arch and overpronates. His feet look like duck feet(pointing outwards instead of straight ahead like most)of us.
He is in high school,with lots of walking between classrooms. so at the end of the day, his ankles are killing him. Even walking in the mall or at a super walmart, he has to sit down several times to get off his feet. He can't stand for too long.
The othopedic doctor told us to get him custom fitted soft othortics(inserts). He wears it in his regular running shoes. Not much help.
I am thinking of buying him walking or running shoes that would help someone with flatfeet. I am hoping maybe New Balance or Reebok or some brand offers something to help him. Something with arch support,etc. Anyone has suggestions or recommendations? What has helped you or someone you know?
Help.
