Orthotic Services for Midfoot Arthritis
There are many bones and joints in the midfoot area.
It is not uncommon that people develop midfoot arthritis in these joints. The pain experienced is commonly worse when walking, standing or laying in bed at night. This pain can be extremely debilitating and make everyday function very difficult.
With each step the joints of the midfoot collapse slightly and flex as you push off. This is normal function of the foot, however if the foot has become arthritic and painful reducing excessive forces will reduce pain.
Common treatment includes:
- Custom foot orthoses
- Carbon fibre stiffener
- Supportive footwear
- Footwear modifications
To determine the most appropriate treatment for you, we recommend booking an initial consultation to discuss your concerns in more detail.
