Flat feet are a very common foot condition which causes over-pronation and can potentially result in much more serious ailments such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, or shin splints if not treated early.
Proper arch support through orthotic insoles or shoe inserts is an effective solution to foot pain caused by flat feet, and helps to prevent more serious foot ailments.
