How to Understand Overpronation and Knee Pain If You Have Flat Feet

What is over pronation (usually resulting in knee pain)- this is the inward roll of the foot while standing, walking, running or dancing. Allowing the flat foot to roll inwards causes noticeable internal rotation of the lower leg and can cause knee injuries.

This can also supervene in extra strain on the lower body and can cause foot pain, heel pain, ankle pain, knee and leg pain, and lower back pain injury. A ballet student only needs to understand this, and can definite a flat foot by developing the sole of the foot muscles for dancing in real ballet shoes.

Studying ballet or sports without correcting pronation can lead to knee pain, shin splints, arch pain, and ample tension in the lower leg.

The flat foot may be flexible and may show a curve when pointed, but on the floor, it still needs to be supported properly. Rolling ankles, with the lower leg internally rotating inwards, and the thighs turning out, can at last lead to a twisting of the knee joint with irritation, inflammation, and pain.

Excess wear on the inner sides of the street shoes, is an definite sign of over pronation.

If you can get a parent or a fellow dance student to take a photograph of your flat feet standing in parallel, (from the back) you'll see if you are rolling in from the heel, with your arches mushed on the floor.

See if your heels lean inwards and if your kneecaps turn inwards while standing. This would be in a relaxed position, not retention your thighs in any singular way. You'll see that if you then turn out, your feet may adjust somewhat, with the heels pulling up straighter, and the arches maybe lifting a little. This will surely help avoid tasteless knee injuries.

However, retention your ballet turnout is not sufficient to definite this. Also, just lifting the arches up by rolling outward is not a good correction.

Locating and strengthening the tiny foot muscles is your best bet to not compensate for the flat foot in the wrong ways and then send the foot's workload up into the calf and shin muscles.

If you already have ankle, lower leg or knee pain, see a chiropractor, physiotherapist or a podiatrist. You may need orthotics (supportive shoe inserts) and even a heel counter (an insert in the heel of your shoe that stabilizes your heel position) in your street shoes. This heel counter should fit well to forestall extra movement and twisting ankles.

Morton's foot (big toe shorter than second) can cause a exiguous roll inward when the foot moves upward to rise or take off for a jump. Even though weight goes off the foot in many of these movements, just try imagining how often in a class that happens - and the uneven pressure on the feet muscles and bones.

Having the weight spread evenly from the town of the heel, big toe joint and exiguous toe joint, is your foundation. It gives the level base, just like the platform a house is built on, for your skeleton to stack up above.
