Suggest Remedy For Pronation In Feet
I have pronation in both of my feet. I was just recently diagnosed with tendentious in both my knees and I am now in physical therapy for them. They say the problems in my knees are caused by my feet. I was wondering if there was another option to fix my feet that anyone knows of.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pronation in feet . Well pronation is a normal part of walking or running. When the outside edge of your heel hits the ground, it supinates or locks to deal with the shockwave. Your foot then rolls in a bit and your heel moves outward. It can affaect leg knee or even hip joint . I would suggest you to use Stability shoes, best for mild to moderate overpronators . In case the pronation is severe you can use motion control shoes, best for moderate to severe overpronators . Consult podiatrist for proper examination and treatment.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
