Flatfoot Transverse

First of all, it should be noted that flat feet are a fairly common disease of the musculoskeletal system, which can be diagnosed in people of all ages. Now we will look at transverse flatfoot and its possible consequences.

Transverse flatfoot is a fairly serious deviation of the foot, characterized by deformation of the arch in the anterior section. If the disease is in an advanced stage, the functioning of most joints of the foot is disrupted. Due to deformation, the angle between the first and second bones of the foot changes, as well as its instep. It is more common than longitudinal. Occurs due to improper distribution of load while walking. Currently, 25% of the adult population is affected by flat feet, with women and children most often affected. In the older generation, the second stage of the disease no longer develops, i.e. orthopedic diseases do not appear. However, improper distribution of the load on the legs can cause pain and fatigue. Every third person suffers from flat feet, regardless of gender, age and place of residence. The disease is often diagnosed in childhood, but today adults also face it. The complexity of treating the disease increases every year. With age, most people's feet become deformed, becoming wider and denser. This leads to subsidence disorders and chronic diseases. Flat feet has four signs: * The angle of the bones should be straight; * The forefoot is clearly defined; *Foot height is 186mm; * The raised foot smoothly falls down, without turning at the heel.
