QUESTION: Where does your OVERPRONATION cause YOU PAIN? 🦶Thanks for subscribing!🦶 Also let us know what topics you want to hear about! For the shoes and orthotics recommended in the video: wp.me/p9imRX-54n
I was born with a pronation deformity. I assume surgery is my only option. My pronation is x3 worse than the examples you showed. I still walk and work 8hr+ per day
My Dad had flat feet his whole life and I had flat feet as a child. He took me to a shoe store that had a fellow with training in the Thomas heel. I wore shoes with the Thomas heel for five years, and got good arches over that time. I remember Mr. Sines pointing out how the wear on the heels moved slowly over numerous pairs of shoes from the inside to the outside as my pronation disappeared. Still have good arches. The Thomas heel was invented by Hugh Owen Thomas, a Welsh orthopedic Surgeon in the late 1800s. We've had a cure for flat feet that long! I can attest to the effectiveness of the Thomas heel. And the shoes were attractive, normal shoes. Just the shape of the heel was different.
You Are RIGHT! I honestly didn't realise that my overpronation was causing my entire lifes' strange fatigue, pain in body whenever I walked about. I need to get it sorted.
Ouch, that is tough for sure! We really hope you feel better. Just make sure to see a podiatrist in the future if your problem continues. We really, really appreciate you as a fan and than you for watching. If in the Michigan area consider coming to see us! www.michiganfootdoctors.com/
My achilles tear from five months back now makes so much more sense. I recognized years of poor posture, tight ankles, and chronic tendonitis, but never really considered that it was my feet that were generating the issues leading up to it. This is only going to benefit my ability to properly recover, thank you!
OMG I had all these symptoms for years. Finally went to a podiatrist and an orthopedic surgeon to get treatment. Proper orthopedic shoes, custom inserts, weight management and massage therapy helped tremendously.
@@majestymoon9276 Professional inserts in some good quality boots or shoes improved my posture and the way I walk, also made me look taller ( bonus). I am still considering getting the newest surgery to correct over pronation of the feet, because the inserts have to be replaced and are costly.
For anyone who is struggling with pain and who is the US, please look up a physical therapist who is trained in the Manual Therapy Institute. El Paso PT has a great you tube channel. I am working with a PT now for hip and knee pain, she is retaining/strengthening my feet (fallen arch, pronation) and glutes mostly. She recommended stability shoes and something like a Hoka for long walks (optional) and said I would never be able to be in barefoot shoes because of how I’m built (wide hips). So everyone is different. Good luck everyone and sending everyone healing xo
This...this explains a lot about why my back usually hurts...and why I cant stand for long periods of time yikes. I dont understand why you dont mave more than 1.5k views per vid at least...
Hi from the UK🇬🇧 and thank you for this video. I now understand why my ankles rolls over to one side(always hated the way it looks), worst on my left foot. My feet are extremely flat, looks like a flat fish. I have bunions, again worst on my left foot. I get sciatica and pain in my lower back. Always have to wear shoes that grip my sides where there should be arches. Even though I have visited a chiropodist at the hospital and they made me a pair of insoles my flat feet and rolling of feet has never been explained to me. This is one of the best explanations I have seen.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I simply don't understand how as a podiatrist and someone that is supposed to understand feet function, you can still recommend insoles and arch supporters at 2020... I think it is very clear today, and a lot of professionals are gradually shifting to this understanding, that our feet were meant to be free and naked and not ruined buy the tight and rigid shoes that you offer as a solution... If anything, those shoes are the origin of the problem. Then fact that we are introduced to the from before we can even walk is what causes are muscles tendons ligaments and bones to just weekend and loose their natural ability and function. The shoe wear industry is nothing less than an epidemic in my opinion. Not saying flat feet is not a problem. But strentging them, reconnecting to our feet and developing stronger physical awareness of our bodies, while actually spending more time barefoot and active - is definitely a better treatment then orthotics that quite literally destroy our feet function.
Names of shoes and orthotics? And where to purchase? We’re desperate. In a huge amount of pain, very very flat feet with over pronation. Thank you!! Best video so far regarding this problem.
Same. If this is your biology in my research and life long seeking treatment I have found that no amount of exercise can fix you. Exercise can strengthen supporting tendons and wearing support can provide some comfort and prevent excessive worsening thats it. Nothing except surgery is going to fix your flat foot and even then the corrective surgery is not always very effective and it limits some ankle mobility. I know a coworker that had this surgery to correct her overpronation and extremely flat foot. She ended up staying off of work for a year and was forced to retire because her Dr kept extending her order to stay away from standing jobs. She never felt 100% again. Don't get me wrong she feels good and travels and looks great but she couldn't do a job standing on her feet for almost 2 years. I spoke to her about 2 years afterward and she said that her running ability is zero.
@@greataustin2834 No she cannot jump or rather I'm sure that she can jump but prefers not to do so due to discomfort and slight stiffness of ankle but she says that she feels better than before and she even wears high heels to events. She is not the kind of person to work hard or test her limits so I don't know.
I had the pin insert. It wasn't long before I heard/felt that foot pop. The pin appears on the xray as being in that right spot. However, the problem remains.
This is helpful to understand how overpronation works. I have a bunion forming on one foot and want to correct it. I'm changing the way I walk because I noticed that, among doing other things that caused it, yes, I do overpronate on that ankle/foot. So I'm making a conscious effort to walk straighter, and with my weight distributed back to the outside of the foot inside of towards the inside. Edited to say no, I don't have particular pain from it.

my ankle moves inward it’s been years (when I was a kid 9-12 y/o ) once my foot is injured in an road accident (I wasn’t able to walk for about 4-5 months) since then my ankle rolls inward I noticed then but ignored but It cause pain now(I’m 17 now). when I walk but it pains sometime more while sleeping & its pain when I walk straight but It feels better & isn’t painful as before until I over walk. Can you suggest me any ankle brace.
I know the post is a year old, but another thing to consider is your shoes. Modern shoes are not foot shaped and they push all your toes inward to the point of the toe. Your toes being forced to push inwards is also a major cause of bunions. Focusing on walking the way you are is great, I'm doing the same thing for my own overpronation, but if you're wearing orthotics or cushioned shoes with a "normal" toe box, you're not going to really get anywhere unless you spend a lot of time barefoot. Luckily, there are barefoot style shoes (don't worry, they've evolved since the toe shoes, they look normal now), and wearing these will allow your toes to spread apart naturally, and they will force you to strengthen your muscles and walk properly because there's zero support and the material beneath your feet is only a few millimeters thick. It takes a long time to get used to them though, at least if you have weak feet, like me. Our feet take a beating once we leave our house so they won't be an all day shoe until your feet are strong enough to support themselves.
Often a bunion forming on one foot is due to having one leg longer than the other. The longer leg has to overpronate as you walk so the bunion occurs on that side
Flat and over pronating feet all my life. Have all the stuffs & done it all except surgery. Several doctors & specialists but nobody explained how simple the surgery is. If I go again and they tell me this & I can get a surgery tears of joy will flow and flow….the pain I’ve had everyday 😭😭😭😭😭
Never thought I'd be looking at these videos but I have a 11year old who has been in pain for years. Physical therapy, orthopedics aren't working. Two orthopedic surgeons both said *just buy some inserts" it's so frustrating. Trying to find a podatrist or foot and ankle doctor for peds is a pain
I am sixty now.100% flat foot.Went through peripheral neuropathy when I was in school. Overweight and no habbit of walking at all. Walking two hundred three hundred meters is getting difficult now.Cant match speed of friends with whom I walk due to uneven balance of body weight on foot .All I want to reverse it.Once I was one of the best athlete as youngster.This video will help in my workout.

my foot has hurt so much for most of my life and i have gone to the doc but they could never tell me why. And ive had x rays done and everything..so wow! I just realized the cause of my pain is overpronation.
I really appreciate this video. It eased my worries and gave me a goal to work towards to. Your work and dedication to informing all of us is just incredible!! I hope youtube rewards you in the best way.
@@DrTomBiernacki sir orthotics do absoloutley nothing to my pronating feet, i got insoles yesterday and i used them but when i wear them my feet just pronate and dont stay in place, also your video is incorrect because when you placed the skeletal foot on the insole and tried pronating it , it should have pronated
what do you think about having no arch support since we were not meant to have arch supports in shoes...walking around barefoot...are there some people that do need some sort of support then
Thank you for pointing this. I’ve been spending months now on UA-cam learning about weak feet and flat feet/Fallen arches. Every other video I’m watching on foot mechanics, intrinsic and eccentric strengthening seems to follow with the idea of correcting strength imbalances to avoid all these interventions mentioned. It’s as if he is acting in bad faith to scare people with tip 2 being surgery and then follow with tip 3 to recommend custom footwear and orthotics. No bias there right? What a shill. What a joke.
@@b.alix3 I didn't remember commenting...but I'm not dismissing arch support...maybe some people need it or surgery...but for me I'm going back to no arch shoes like when I was at work...I wore dress work shoes and I dint think they had arch supports but heel was probably raised a bit
This was very informative thank you! Hope you don't mind if I ask if there are any differences in the treatment you might suggest for someone with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome/Hypermobility spectrum disorder, or would the treatment options remain the same?
We know you want a more detailed response, and believe us if allowed we would love to give more specific information. Unfortunately we have to let you know how important it is to see your podiatrist in person to get a more detailed response.

I apologize if I'm not understanding what my question is about. I've watched several Podiatry videos and this is never addressed. In my case I have Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction. My Podiatrist recommends me using the orthotic inserts. My question: Is the orthotic inserts supposed to be worn for the rest of my life? Will the inserts correct the problem or just work like a crutch? Thank You in advance.
I have knee pain although I'm young and not athletic. I didn't know what caused it. I have Crohn's and I blamed the disease (could be a reason too not sure) but damn. My shoes is so overpronated and it is obvious I have overpronation when I look at my foot from the back. I can guess that the reasons are that I'm overweight, used the wrong (too comfortable shoes like sketchers weakened my muscles) and lack of flexibility. Will try the shoes and stretching
What do you recommend for arch support when your walking barefoot in the house? Obviously, we can't be in our shoes and sandals with the orthotics all day.
I've recently realized that my feet started to flatten and considering that I exercise every day and I have pretty good flexibility (I'm on the hypermobile side) I started looking around at what's causing this issue. First issue was my tiny sports socks. When we walk, we always have a much higher degree of stability if toes are nicely loose and spread out. Tight socks can force your big toe to bend so you're likely to overpronate when your big toe is not well aligned. I then looked at my trainers. The front is narrow, like most running shoes which again malaligns my toes. They also have arch support so it occurred to me that by having arch support made things a lot worse. Initially I felt good stability in my feet but then my feet muscles became very weak. On top of that, the wear and tear of shoes will also perpetuate the poor alignment. So what I did was relatively simple: put my trainers in the bin and started using soft shoes with no arch to retrain my feet muscles to do the job. I walk with no socks in the house or at least some looser socks. Walking barefooted is amazing as it enhances proprioception. I started to workout and stretch the muscles of my feet, my lower legs and glutes (glutes are very important, when they're loose, the leg will rotate inward so you're likely to overpronate, there's a very strong link between core muscles/glutes/feet. If core/glutes are weak, so will your feet). I started to work on my awareness to distribute weight within the tripod: big toe, pinky toe and heel when standing. So all this routine seems to work for me and I feel a lot better. At the end of the day, humans used to walk barefooted all the time.
@@alinaa641 You should also look into correct toes, they can mitigate your deformities and help restrengthen your feet which will have effects all the way up your body. Toe socks work great with them. Getting some flat, flexible, wide toebox shoes is a great idea as well and will allow you room for realignment. I know several brands that make shoes with these characteristics.
Yes and no, if you are chronically flat foot and sore you will never have healthy muscle function. Sometimes barefoot walking can change your gait and put your feet in better position, but with most injured and sore people they just continue to get worse and even more sore.
We find younger healthier people have a better chance at benefitting from barefoot walking, on the other hand older people tend to have more pain and issues( but again this is general outcomes, everyone varies based on many variables)
OMG thank you. I have bunions my left is much rose than my right and my family says it’s bc of heels but I’ve never been big into heels. Now I know why. I also have accessory navicular syndrome. Just had surgery to remove it.

It's nice to see how you switched from that very loose skeletal model to a very stiff one when you tried to plug that orthotic footwear. Nice pitch man!
As someone who has very flat feet. I had an orthotics doctor tell me, " Oh, your right, you do have no arch." I have a large bubion on ny left foot, happen to need a knew left knee due to severe osteoarthritis that is caused by having flat feet.

Yet another outstanding, informative video!! What is your feeling about the use of “Carbon Plate” inserts used under orthotics? These can be used in multiple shoes! This also stops the bending, but a which is better? The shoe, or an inflexible carbon plate? Thanks 🙏
Personally I love the carbon fiber insole for thinks like broken toes, in general a deep heel cup (like a pair of power steps that are linked in the show notes) and support is more important than rigid inflexible insoles for something like over pronation. But always see a doctor if worried about a specific medical problem!
I grew from 5’8 to 6’9 in one year and I have over pronation now and it’s just more knee pain to add on to my growing pains everywhere else in my legs 😭. Hopefully this video helps
@@jimbothedon6153 the brain is an amazing tool. it doesn't just control your emotions and your intelligence, it controls your height as well. it can suddenly activate again and put your growth into hyperspeed. i don't know how this person grew that much in a year, but regardless what I mentioned still happens and is possible.
I can’t locate the link on what you think about sinus tarsi implants, particularly in adults. Can you post that again? For reference, my issues began about 10 years ago during my pregnancy. I am waiting on my custom orthotics to arrive…..but I’ve spent so much money on over-the-counter orthotics and they have not helped. Thank you for your time, education, and videos! I’m a subscriber!
I’m overweight I don’t use insoles tho for some reason it’s making it a bit worse but I bought a roller massager and I stretch my foot every morning it eases it o much better but losing weight will also help
What about strengthening the foot muscles through exercises and going barefoot a lot? Plus, switching to barefoot style shoes? Wearing orthotics and stiff shoes weakens our feet.
Depends on whats going on, if you are injured and barefoot walking makes it worse, then barefoot walking is not the answer😀, would you barefoot walk after a stress fracture or broken ankle?
Thanks for the gr8 knowledge, it's very good for the people whe does not have a yime to train the feet, How about train you feet? I believe orthotics are temporary solution, it's like training wheel so I am 42 yo, so been living with over pronotion, last 2 years I have started training my feet and the result in the time frame is amazing, it's really hard at the beginning to train you pronotion feet but you get the permanent result..
As a nurse on my feet 13 hours a day I have developed extreme pain in my right little toe. I started realizing while wearing flats my left foot turns in. I am assuming this is causing the pressure on my right little toe.I bought pro foot pads to wrap around which used to work, but now they're not. I wear a size 5-5.5. I bought Brooke's Addiction shoes that were supposed to be for overpronation but still having pain. I did just buy a toe separator for bunions. It's not on the side of my little toe, though; it's on top. Are there orthotic inserts for small feet?
Find out from a chiropractor if your hips are out. if they are out it will affect the way you walk and it will affect the way your knees and legs work all the way down to the ankle then to the way planter fascia works and in turn it will slowly screw up the know system with how you walk, yep found this out also, still working on trying to get it back in alignment
Wow we really appreciate the kind words. great feedback like this is what really keeps us working hard to make better and more meaningful content. Thank you for being such a great fan and we really appreciate you watching!
My podiatrist prescribed me an Arizona brace which is okay but I'm wondering if maybe I just need a better orthotic? The Arizona brace is good for awhile but starts to bother my arch after wearing it for a few hours.
him showing me all the shoe options!!!! i never knew they had special everything shoes. i need an orthotic shoe guide with a bit of a higher ankle ( sides) because the custom inserts I received are too thick for my current shoes XC.. lol I definitely know where my pain is. " some people don't even know" he said I'm in a decent amount of pain during standing for long periods of time and mostly after the fact when I'm sitting or laying down, just bending my toes hurts ( the issue is in the sole of my foot into my two middle toes) the pain has gotten a bit better with the inserts but not really sure yet well see. i have a follow up this week :)
My 10yr old son have this problem which is worrying for me He used to sit in a wired position while playing video games and resulted in exactly same ankle issue you describe in your video Please tell me what to do?
Stop recommending orthotics all the time. Relying on orthotics weakens your muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It’s the same reason you can’t always wear a back brace. You should be teaching corrections and exercises for rehabilitation instead.
@@Tatusiek_1 this is what i have been told by every physio and ortho ..in india...if you have any other thing to say...please tell me also ..bcz i m fed up with flat feet pain😭😭😭
Dr, Tom, wearing a D width for years. Suddenly sever pain, bunions etc. Yes. I aged and gained weight without adjusting the shoe size. Went to an extra wide shoe to eliminate the pressure of bunion. It helped. Today while watching one of your video, the suggestion was don’t get need extra wide shoes. Yikes, I’ve been wearing extra wide shoes for 20 years. Plantar Fasciitis showed up. Have semi custom fit orthotics. Ready to buy better shoes. It is too late to force my foot into a standard width shoe, from a 4E?
I'll definitely look into ankle stability. braces again. Thx. I'm asking myself why is there no brace that grabs the heel bone and rotates it from that pronated inclined pisition into an upright neutral position and provides resistance against pronation there? I feel lime all braces attack places that help, but that arent the origin. The very heel bone should be preventet from falling inward.
I have what is now identified as Ehlers Danlos Hyper Mobility of the Joints, so any advice about what shoes I should get? I was turned away from the podiatrist who said he could not make me an orthotic as my foot would just melt around them and hurt even more. I cried when I left his office. I need help, I now have a whole host of other diseases due to my bad feet. Thank you so much for any advice

It's just so sad that hardly no one addresses the fact that muscles in our feet should be re-build to do the job. That's what we always do with the rest of our body but when it comes to feet somehow we just should lock them in tight shoes, walk on flat surfaces so that they get no exercise, and then scratch our heads wondering why we have problems. Sad. Even more sad that so few "experts" ever mention work out and muscles.
Since this time last year I begin to have really bad pain in my heels, what work the best now one year after are these: - Change shoes (cushion and pronation ones, for a regular job I'm a teacher so I'm usually standing up all day) I used different types of Adidas Boost and use softer insoles (only if you know you will be seating or walking very short distance or time) - Everyday massage, movements, stretching in the morning as you wake up - at night before you sleep - Buy a massage gun for your feet and your legs, at the end you need to stretch all your tendons not only your feet - Go regularly to foot massage (i live in China so this easy and the biggest improvement) you will learn how they do it, you can do it to yourself or ask someone to do it for me (my GF do it a lot before) - Never walk barefoot unless is grass or the beach, or nature then do it as much as you can - Do regular exercise (focus double on stretching) Hope it helps, it was a hell of a process, I would say a total year, now I've used again flat sneakers or even dress shoes, with some special insoles or heels, for hours, I mean like parties (being dancing and standing up for the whole night and stuff.... and don't get that much pain as before.
I was on crutches for 10 weeks. As soon I went back into running I felt a sharp pain on inside of ankle. Then on the coming days all the bones in my feet changed. The first metatarsal raised upwards and lifted all the padding up out of my shoes. What do I do?
why the calcaneus is planterflexed in etreme pronation disease like CVT when it supposedly should be dorsiflexed? why the talus is planterflexed in extreme supination diseases as talipes when it is supposed to be dorsiflexed as it is over supported by internally rotated calcaneus ?
In general softer orthotics are better for older less athletic people (they focus on cushioning the feet more than holding the knees/hips and back straight), but a good orthotic can be a firm shell with a soft topic - this can give the best of both worlds. A good insole like Powersteps can be a great starting option for 90% of people.
Motion control shoe with a custom orthotic will help some. I also use a AFO but they are bulky and a bit uncomfortable but it all have until I decide if Want to risk surgery since my feet are so bad.
Hey doc i have done my ultrasound done and want to know if its possible to get strong ankle and arch again . The report says For the lateral part Hypoechogenecity with thickening noted at the insertion of posterior tibialis tendon. No evidence of tear noted. No evidence of calcification noted Spring ligament is showing flattening with altered echogenicity in the fat pad of medial arch Deltoid ligament is showing thickening with partial tear at the level of talus ( tibio-talar component) . Tibio-calcaleal component is showing dense calcification. Ganglion cyst noted from talo-navicular joint space extending medially and displacing Posterior tibialis tendon with mild impingement on the Posterior tibial nerve For the medial part Rest of the underlying bones are showing no evidence of cortical breach . Surfaces are irregular with significant osteophytosis and reduced intertarsal joint spaces
Thank you so much for the video! I'm an overpronator and I've worn asics in the past with custom made insoles, but I've been getting knee pain on my runs and i feel I need a better shoe. I just bought a pair of brooks adrenaline gt 20. I've researched they're good for overpronation. But I wanted to you see what you'd recommend for those with flat feet. I saw on your site you had the brooks ariel and the altra olympus 3.5.
With shoes it's really about how you feel. Even talking to the best shoe designers around, some people just feel better in different shoes for different reasons like sweating, bulk and ease of use
Personally we find best results in a good shoes in the 8-12 mm range from Brooks, Asics, new balance, Mizuno, Hoka etc. All the extra stuff depends on personal preference and stuff that's tough to give general advice on.
Hi, I have pain & swelling in the ball of my left foot & also pain on the top of my foot. My toe next to the big toe is bending over the big toe its happened more over a few weeks. M4y right foot is not so bad but i get terrible pain in one of my toes next to my small toe cramp type pain .Very severe, I would appreciate Some advice thank you so much.

I have custom orthotics but heel slippage is problem!I fix orthotics 2 times and heel slippage again but its better after 2 fix times.My doc says the orthotic can be fixed for 3rd time.What your opinion for this problem and ow can i fix it for 100% natural heel feel from the shoes without splippage?
Thoughts on dry needling the poster tibialis, gastroc and soleos to release? I had it done a week ago and my calves have never felt so fatigued in my life after for the next 24hrs, I feel like that's a good sign that they are being constantly over worked?
I've found recently my right foot doesn't line yo with my knee. What would you recommend to correct this as I think it's causing a slight gait in my walk along with some minor issues I feel might be increasing. I've heard the term "duck foot" for what it looks like. I think it's my Shin or Tibia based on what I've seen on it.
i was told i have overpronation from my podiatrist. i tried custom orthotics. they sucked. like didn’t help at all. i am suffering from inner knee pain on left leg. and outter hip pain on both hips. worse on the right. went to dr. i was told i have hip impingement, but that sounds like inner groin pain. i suffer from outter hip pain. should i consider these insoles? find a new doctor? how do i find a doctor that’s gonna actually help and not just throw over priced custom orthotics at me!? really need relief cuz i’m only 31 😅

My Dad had flat feet his whole life and I had flat feet as a child. He took me to a shoe store that had a fellow with training in the Thomas heel. I wore shoes with the Thomas heel for five years, and got good arches over that time. I remember Mr. Sines pointing out how the wear on the heels moved slowly over numerous pairs of shoes from the inside to the outside as my pronation disappeared. Still have good arches. The Thomas heel was invented by Hugh Owen Thomas, a Welsh orthopedic Surgeon in the late 1800s. We've had a cure for flat feet that long! I can attest to the effectiveness of the Thomas heel. And the shoes were attractive, normal shoes. Just the shape of the heel was different.

This...this explains a lot about why my back usually hurts...and why I cant stand for long periods of time yikes. I dont understand why you dont mave more than 1.5k views per vid at least...
Absolutely it's a huge problem. Don't worry these videos will get there, they are all only a couple days old!
Thanks for being a great fan and watching!
Hi from the UK🇬🇧 and thank you for this video. I now understand why my ankles rolls over to one side(always hated the way it looks), worst on my left foot. My feet are extremely flat, looks like a flat fish. I have bunions, again worst on my left foot. I get sciatica and pain in my lower back. Always have to wear shoes that grip my sides where there should be arches.
Even though I have visited a chiropodist at the hospital and they made me a pair of insoles my flat feet and rolling of feet has never been explained to me. This is one of the best explanations I have seen.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
What shoes, brand that grips both sides? It's my left foot.
I simply don't understand how as a podiatrist and someone that is supposed to understand feet function, you can still recommend insoles and arch supporters at 2020... I think it is very clear today, and a lot of professionals are gradually shifting to this understanding, that our feet were meant to be free and naked and not ruined buy the tight and rigid shoes that you offer as a solution... If anything, those shoes are the origin of the problem. Then fact that we are introduced to the from before we can even walk is what causes are muscles tendons ligaments and bones to just weekend and loose their natural ability and function. The shoe wear industry is nothing less than an epidemic in my opinion. Not saying flat feet is not a problem. But strentging them, reconnecting to our feet and developing stronger physical awareness of our bodies, while actually spending more time barefoot and active - is definitely a better treatment then orthotics that quite literally destroy our feet function.
Yes orthotics are not the solution to the real problem.
Going without shoes gave me second toe capsulitis which is insanely painful and it was because i didn’t have support
I am not a Podiatrist....
Names of shoes and orthotics? And where to purchase? We’re desperate. In a huge amount of pain, very very flat feet with over pronation. Thank you!! Best video so far regarding this problem.
What if you were born with flat feet, I was born with them and I’ve tried everything it makes me really insecure how much my foot folds in
Same. If this is your biology in my research and life long seeking treatment I have found that no amount of exercise can fix you. Exercise can strengthen supporting tendons and wearing support can provide some comfort and prevent excessive worsening thats it. Nothing except surgery is going to fix your flat foot and even then the corrective surgery is not always very effective and it limits some ankle mobility.
I know a coworker that had this surgery to correct her overpronation and extremely flat foot. She ended up staying off of work for a year and was forced to retire because her Dr kept extending her order to stay away from standing jobs.
She never felt 100% again.
Don't get me wrong she feels good and travels and looks great but she couldn't do a job standing on her feet for almost 2 years. I spoke to her about 2 years afterward and she said that her running ability is zero.
@@TheMariemarie16 so she cannot run or do jumping rope?
@@greataustin2834 No she cannot jump or rather I'm sure that she can jump but prefers not to do so due to discomfort and slight stiffness of ankle but she says that she feels better than before and she even wears high heels to events.
She is not the kind of person to work hard or test her limits so I don't know.
I got surgery for my feet! Helped the pain a lot!! Unfortunately I still don’t have an arch though.
I had the pin insert. It wasn't long before I heard/felt that foot pop. The pin appears on the xray as being in that right spot. However, the problem remains.
This is helpful to understand how overpronation works. I have a bunion forming on one foot and want to correct it. I'm changing the way I walk because I noticed that, among doing other things that caused it, yes, I do overpronate on that ankle/foot. So I'm making a conscious effort to walk straighter, and with my weight distributed back to the outside of the foot inside of towards the inside. Edited to say no, I don't have particular pain from it.
We appreciate you watching and contributing, we hope you continue feeling better!

We are working hard every day to make better and more meaningful content! This is what keeps us going for sure.
my ankle moves inward it’s been years (when I was a kid 9-12 y/o ) once my foot is injured in an road accident (I wasn’t able to walk for about 4-5 months) since then my ankle rolls inward I noticed then but ignored but It cause pain now(I’m 17 now). when I walk but it pains sometime more while sleeping & its pain when I walk straight but It feels better & isn’t painful as before until I over walk. Can you suggest me any ankle brace.
@@akbhardwaj6238 were u in crutches?
I know the post is a year old, but another thing to consider is your shoes. Modern shoes are not foot shaped and they push all your toes inward to the point of the toe. Your toes being forced to push inwards is also a major cause of bunions. Focusing on walking the way you are is great, I'm doing the same thing for my own overpronation, but if you're wearing orthotics or cushioned shoes with a "normal" toe box, you're not going to really get anywhere unless you spend a lot of time barefoot. Luckily, there are barefoot style shoes (don't worry, they've evolved since the toe shoes, they look normal now), and wearing these will allow your toes to spread apart naturally, and they will force you to strengthen your muscles and walk properly because there's zero support and the material beneath your feet is only a few millimeters thick. It takes a long time to get used to them though, at least if you have weak feet, like me. Our feet take a beating once we leave our house so they won't be an all day shoe until your feet are strong enough to support themselves.
Often a bunion forming on one foot is due to having one leg longer than the other. The longer leg has to overpronate as you walk so the bunion occurs on that side
why no exercises for strengthening the muscles ?
Flat and over pronating feet all my life. Have all the stuffs & done it all except surgery. Several doctors & specialists but nobody explained how simple the surgery is. If I go again and they tell me this & I can get a surgery tears of joy will flow and flow….the pain I’ve had everyday 😭😭😭😭😭

Never thought I'd be looking at these videos but I have a 11year old who has been in pain for years. Physical therapy, orthopedics aren't working. Two orthopedic surgeons both said *just buy some inserts" it's so frustrating. Trying to find a podatrist or foot and ankle doctor for peds is a pain
Over time, if I wear such rigid shoes, does my arch improve or do my arch muscles get weaker because they are not being used?
The answer to your question is included in it. :)
I am sixty now.100% flat foot.Went through peripheral neuropathy when I was in school. Overweight and no habbit of walking at all. Walking two hundred three hundred meters is getting difficult now.Cant match speed of friends with whom I walk due to uneven balance of body weight on foot .All I want to reverse it.Once I was one of the best athlete as youngster.This video will help in my workout.

my foot has hurt so much for most of my life and i have gone to the doc but they could never tell me why. And ive had x rays done and everything..so wow! I just realized the cause of my pain is overpronation.
I really appreciate this video. It eased my worries and gave me a goal to work towards to. Your work and dedication to informing all of us is just incredible!! I hope youtube rewards you in the best way.
He basically says wear orthotics and take care of previous injuries/tightnesses
👍
@@DrTomBiernacki sir orthotics do absoloutley nothing to my pronating feet, i got insoles yesterday and i used them but when i wear them my feet just pronate and dont stay in place, also your video is incorrect because when you placed the skeletal foot on the insole and tried pronating it , it should have pronated
@@DrTomBiernacki i have flexieble flat feet with extremly overpronated do you orthotics think it will work for me
Would u recommend exercises , do you think they do increase the arch?
your foot needs to be strengthened. orthotics and surgery will just make your feet weaker. proper movement patterns fix this kind of stuff.
Quick question, can this kind of issues cause ankle swilling, inflammation, redness and pain ON&OFF for years ?
Thanks 😊
I think kinda
what do you think about having no arch support since we were not meant to have arch supports in shoes...walking around barefoot...are there some people that do need some sort of support then
Thank you for pointing this. I’ve been spending months now on UA-cam learning about weak feet and flat feet/Fallen arches. Every other video I’m watching on foot mechanics, intrinsic and eccentric strengthening seems to follow with the idea of correcting strength imbalances to avoid all these interventions mentioned. It’s as if he is acting in bad faith to scare people with tip 2 being surgery and then follow with tip 3 to recommend custom footwear and orthotics. No bias there right? What a shill. What a joke.
@@b.alix3 I didn't remember commenting...but I'm not dismissing arch support...maybe some people need it or surgery...but for me I'm going back to no arch shoes like when I was at work...I wore dress work shoes and I dint think they had arch supports but heel was probably raised a bit
This was very informative thank you! Hope you don't mind if I ask if there are any differences in the treatment you might suggest for someone with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome/Hypermobility spectrum disorder, or would the treatment options remain the same?
We know you want a more detailed response, and believe us if allowed we would love to give more specific information.

Bro! I just realized that I know you from back when I was in MI! Good to see you getting out there and educating the peoples...
I apologize if I'm not understanding what my question is about. I've watched several Podiatry videos and this is never addressed. In my case I have Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction. My Podiatrist recommends me using the orthotic inserts. My question: Is the orthotic inserts supposed to be worn for the rest of my life? Will the inserts correct the problem or just work like a crutch? Thank You in advance.
I have knee pain although I'm young and not athletic. I didn't know what caused it. I have Crohn's and I blamed the disease (could be a reason too not sure) but damn. My shoes is so overpronated and it is obvious I have overpronation when I look at my foot from the back. I can guess that the reasons are that I'm overweight, used the wrong (too comfortable shoes like sketchers weakened my muscles) and lack of flexibility. Will try the shoes and stretching
What about strengthening the plantar fascia?
What do you recommend for arch support when your walking barefoot in the house? Obviously, we can't be in our shoes and sandals with the orthotics all day.
Thinking this too…. I wonder if there’s good flip flop to wear just inside the house
I've recently realized that my feet started to flatten and considering that I exercise every day and I have pretty good flexibility (I'm on the hypermobile side) I started looking around at what's causing this issue. First issue was my tiny sports socks. When we walk, we always have a much higher degree of stability if toes are nicely loose and spread out. Tight socks can force your big toe to bend so you're likely to overpronate when your big toe is not well aligned. I then looked at my trainers. The front is narrow, like most running shoes which again malaligns my toes. They also have arch support so it occurred to me that by having arch support made things a lot worse. Initially I felt good stability in my feet but then my feet muscles became very weak. On top of that, the wear and tear of shoes will also perpetuate the poor alignment. So what I did was relatively simple: put my trainers in the bin and started using soft shoes with no arch to retrain my feet muscles to do the job. I walk with no socks in the house or at least some looser socks. Walking barefooted is amazing as it enhances proprioception. I started to workout and stretch the muscles of my feet, my lower legs and glutes (glutes are very important, when they're loose, the leg will rotate inward so you're likely to overpronate, there's a very strong link between core muscles/glutes/feet. If core/glutes are weak, so will your feet). I started to work on my awareness to distribute weight within the tripod: big toe, pinky toe and heel when standing. So all this routine seems to work for me and I feel a lot better. At the end of the day, humans used to walk barefooted all the time.
@@alinaa641 use toe socks, so that the sock material doesn’t bend your toes inward
@@Tatusiek_1 that's a very good idea 👍
@@alinaa641 You should also look into correct toes, they can mitigate your deformities and help restrengthen your feet which will have effects all the way up your body. Toe socks work great with them. Getting some flat, flexible, wide toebox shoes is a great idea as well and will allow you room for realignment. I know several brands that make shoes with these characteristics.
Doesn't a stiff shoe, and orthotic just leave your feet and ankles weak then? Shouldn't the idea be to strengthen and rebuild issues?
Yes and no, if you are chronically flat foot and sore you will never have healthy muscle function. Sometimes barefoot walking can change your gait and put your feet in better position, but with most injured and sore people they just continue to get worse and even more sore.
We find younger healthier people have a better chance at benefitting from barefoot walking, on the other hand older people tend to have more pain and issues( but again this is general outcomes, everyone varies based on many variables)
OMG thank you. I have bunions my left is much rose than my right and my family says it’s bc of heels but I’ve never been big into heels. Now I know why. I also have accessory navicular syndrome. Just had surgery to remove it.

Yet another outstanding, informative video!! What is your feeling about the use of “Carbon Plate” inserts used under orthotics? These can be used in multiple shoes! This also stops the bending, but a which is better? The shoe, or an inflexible carbon plate? Thanks 🙏
Personally I love the carbon fiber insole for thinks like broken toes, in general a deep heel cup (like a pair of power steps that are linked in the show notes) and support is more important than rigid inflexible insoles for something like over pronation. But always see a doctor if worried about a specific medical problem!
I came out of a walking boot with this problem. I did not have it before surgery.
i got my right feet overpronated since i was in the 5th grade. now im 21 and everytime my ankle sprained it hurts so much
Samee :(( could you fix it
It causes me severe hip pain crippled since 22 from this developed snapping hip from it and chronic bursitis.
Great video bro! Thanks!
I grew from 5’8 to 6’9 in one year and I have over pronation now and it’s just more knee pain to add on to my growing pains everywhere else in my legs 😭. Hopefully this video helps

What about exercises to correct pronation?
I can’t locate the link on what you think about sinus tarsi implants, particularly in adults. Can you post that again? For reference, my issues began about 10 years ago during my pregnancy. I am waiting on my custom orthotics to arrive…..but I’ve spent so much money on over-the-counter orthotics and they have not helped. Thank you for your time, education, and videos! I’m a subscriber!
I’m overweight I don’t use insoles tho for some reason it’s making it a bit worse but I bought a roller massager and I stretch my foot every morning it eases it o much better but losing weight will also help
What about strengthening the foot muscles through exercises and going barefoot a lot? Plus, switching to barefoot style shoes? Wearing orthotics and stiff shoes weakens our feet.
Depends on whats going on, if you are injured and barefoot walking makes it worse, then barefoot walking is not the answer😀, would you barefoot walk after a stress fracture or broken ankle?
Thanks for the gr8 knowledge, it's very good for the people whe does not have a yime to train the feet, How about train you feet? I believe orthotics are temporary solution, it's like training wheel so I am 42 yo, so been living with over pronotion, last 2 years I have started training my feet and the result in the time frame is amazing, it's really hard at the beginning to train you pronotion feet but you get the permanent result..
As a nurse on my feet 13 hours a day I have developed extreme pain in my right little toe. I started realizing while wearing flats my left foot turns in. I am assuming this is causing the pressure on my right little toe.I bought pro foot pads to wrap around which used to work, but now they're not. I wear a size 5-5.5. I bought Brooke's Addiction shoes that were supposed to be for overpronation but still having pain. I did just buy a toe separator for bunions. It's not on the side of my little toe, though; it's on top. Are there orthotic inserts for small feet?
You need a custom one those are pretty expensive but worth it
Find out from a chiropractor if your hips are out. if they are out it will affect the way you walk and it will affect the way your knees and legs work all the way down to the ankle then to the way planter fascia works and in turn it will slowly screw up the know system with how you walk, yep found this out also, still working on trying to get it back in alignment
Informative and funny, great combination! Thank you :-)

Does this happen with supination of foot and causing tailors bunion?
My podiatrist prescribed me an Arizona brace which is okay but I'm wondering if maybe I just need a better orthotic? The Arizona brace is good for awhile but starts to bother my arch after wearing it for a few hours.
him showing me all the shoe options!!!! i never knew they had special everything shoes. i need an orthotic shoe guide with a bit of a higher ankle ( sides) because the custom inserts I received are too thick for my current shoes XC.. lol I definitely know where my pain is. " some people don't even know" he said I'm in a decent amount of pain during standing for long periods of time and mostly after the fact when I'm sitting or laying down, just bending my toes hurts ( the issue is in the sole of my foot into my two middle toes) the pain has gotten a bit better with the inserts but not really sure yet well see. i have a follow up this week :)

Which orthotic are the best ? Thanks in advance
Do you need orthotics in a running shoe, or do stability shoes by themselves offer enough? :)
Stop recommending orthotics all the time. Relying on orthotics weakens your muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It’s the same reason you can’t always wear a back brace. You should be teaching corrections and exercises for rehabilitation instead.
There is no permanent except surgery...or else orthotics...

Dr, Tom, wearing a D width for years. Suddenly sever pain, bunions etc. Yes. I aged and gained weight without adjusting the shoe size. Went to an extra wide shoe to eliminate the pressure of bunion. It helped. Today while watching one of your video, the suggestion was don’t get need extra wide shoes. Yikes, I’ve been wearing extra wide shoes for 20 years. Plantar Fasciitis showed up. Have semi custom fit orthotics. Ready to buy better shoes.
It is too late to force my foot into a standard width shoe, from a 4E?
With good supportive insoles the foot should pronate less, but if there is arthritis it may not reverse that much. The answer is... it depends
Thanks Dr. Tom.
I'll definitely look into ankle stability. braces again. Thx.
I'm asking myself why is there no brace that grabs the heel bone and rotates it from that pronated inclined pisition into an upright neutral position and provides resistance against pronation there? I feel lime all braces attack places that help, but that arent the origin. The very heel bone should be preventet from falling inward.
We like zenith or McDavid ankle brace for like 20-30$, just tighten the inner (medial) strap
Are these braces available in the UK?
Superfeet are the way to go

I have what is now identified as Ehlers Danlos Hyper Mobility of the Joints, so any advice about what shoes I should get? I was turned away from the podiatrist who said he could not make me an orthotic as my foot would just melt around them and hurt even more. I cried when I left his office. I need help, I now have a whole host of other diseases due to my bad feet. Thank you so much for any advice
It's just so sad that hardly no one addresses the fact that muscles in our feet should be re-build to do the job. That's what we always do with the rest of our body but when it comes to feet somehow we just should lock them in tight shoes, walk on flat surfaces so that they get no exercise, and then scratch our heads wondering why we have problems. Sad. Even more sad that so few "experts" ever mention work out and muscles.
@@chchwoman9960 That makes we very happy to hear!
My big toe bone moved upwards. Now when I run with foot in neutral all the pressure is on my small toe/5th metatarsal. Am I screwed doc?
Since this time last year I begin to have really bad pain in my heels, what work the best now one year after are these:
- Change shoes (cushion and pronation ones, for a regular job I'm a teacher so I'm usually standing up all day) I used different types of Adidas Boost and use softer insoles (only if you know you will be seating or walking very short distance or time)
- Everyday massage, movements, stretching in the morning as you wake up - at night before you sleep
- Buy a massage gun for your feet and your legs, at the end you need to stretch all your tendons not only your feet
- Go regularly to foot massage (i live in China so this easy and the biggest improvement) you will learn how they do it, you can do it to yourself or ask someone to do it for me (my GF do it a lot before)
- Never walk barefoot unless is grass or the beach, or nature then do it as much as you can
- Do regular exercise (focus double on stretching)
Hope it helps, it was a hell of a process, I would say a total year, now I've used again flat sneakers or even dress shoes, with some special insoles or heels, for hours, I mean like parties (being dancing and standing up for the whole night and stuff.... and don't get that much pain as before.

Is it possible???
I was on crutches for 10 weeks. As soon I went back into running I felt a sharp pain on inside of ankle. Then on the coming days all the bones in my feet changed. The first metatarsal raised upwards and lifted all the padding up out of my shoes. What do I do?
I think my 10yrs old daughter has pronation of feet. I don't see any orthotic insert or shoes for big kids. What's your suggestion. Thank you.
why the calcaneus is planterflexed in etreme pronation disease like CVT when it supposedly should be dorsiflexed?
why the talus is planterflexed in extreme supination diseases as talipes when it is supposed to be dorsiflexed as it is over supported by internally rotated calcaneus ?
Is there a difference in hard orthotics or soft orthotic?
In general softer orthotics are better for older less athletic people (they focus on cushioning the feet more than holding the knees/hips and back straight), but a good orthotic can be a firm shell with a soft topic - this can give the best of both worlds. A good insole like Powersteps can be a great starting option for 90% of people.
Motion control shoe with a custom orthotic will help some. I also use a AFO but they are bulky and a bit uncomfortable but it all have until I decide if Want to risk surgery since my feet are so bad.

Thank you so much for the video! I'm an overpronator and I've worn asics in the past with custom made insoles, but I've been getting knee pain on my runs and i feel I need a better shoe. I just bought a pair of brooks adrenaline gt 20. I've researched they're good for overpronation. But I wanted to you see what you'd recommend for those with flat feet. I saw on your site you had the brooks ariel and the altra olympus 3.5.
With shoes it's really about how you feel. Even talking to the best shoe designers around, some people just feel better in different shoes for different reasons like sweating, bulk and ease of use
Personally we find best results in a good shoes in the 8-12 mm range from Brooks, Asics, new balance, Mizuno, Hoka etc. All the extra stuff depends on personal preference and stuff that's tough to give general advice on.

Thoughts on dry needling the poster tibialis, gastroc and soleos to release? I had it done a week ago and my calves have never felt so fatigued in my life after for the next 24hrs, I feel like that's a good sign that they are being constantly over worked?
I've found recently my right foot doesn't line yo with my knee.
What would you recommend to correct this as I think it's causing a slight gait in my walk along with some minor issues I feel might be increasing.
I've heard the term "duck foot" for what it looks like.
I think it's my Shin or Tibia based on what I've seen on it.
i was told i have overpronation from my podiatrist. i tried custom orthotics. they sucked. like didn’t help at all. i am suffering from inner knee pain on left leg. and outter hip
pain on both hips. worse on the right. went to dr. i was told i have hip impingement, but that sounds like inner groin pain. i suffer from outter hip pain. should i consider these insoles? find a new doctor? how do i find a doctor that’s gonna actually help and not just throw over priced custom orthotics at me!? really need relief cuz i’m
only 31 😅
What do you suggest for bilateral torsol coalition? Or tarsal. I always forget the actual name.
