I have flat feet

Flat feet, also called pes planus or fallen arches, is a condition in which the arch of the foot collapses, with the entire sole of the foot coming into complete or near-complete contact with the ground. In some individuals (an estimated 20-30% of the general population) the arch simply never develops in one foot (unilaterally) or both feet (bilaterally). It should be noted that being flatfooted does not decrease footspeed; flat feet do not affect one's response to the Plantar reflex test; and Horses can also develop flat feet.

Went for foot reflexology with sotong yesterday and the therapists commented that I have flat feet...
