"How to Alleviate Pain When Walking with Flat Feet?"
Flat feet refer to having a flat arch of the foot. Pain when walking with flat feet can generally be treated through general therapy, physiotherapy, and medication.
General Therapy: Pay attention to wearing loose and comfortable shoes and socks, avoid vigorous exercise, and avoid walking for long periods. You can also wear protective equipment, such as orthopedic shoes or insoles.
Physiotherapy: Local massage can promote blood circulation. Avoid excessive force to prevent injury to the body. Additionally, hot compresses can dilate local capillaries, accelerate blood circulation, and have an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect.
Medication: Flat feet may be influenced by genetic factors, leading to the collapse of the arch. During long periods of standing, jumping, or walking, it may cause compression of the blood vessels and nerves at the sole of the foot, easily leading to pain symptoms. If symptoms are severe, walking function is limited, and daily life and work are severely affected, meloxicam tablets and levofloxacin hydrochloride tablets can be taken under a doctor's guidance. If the patient experiences discomfort, they need to seek medical treatment promptly. Pay attention to adjusting the diet and avoid eating spicy and greasy food such as chili peppers and hot pots.
