I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. By and large, flat feet in children do not require treatment and will usually develop arches by adolescence or early adulthood. Children who go barefoot on varied terrain are more likely to have normal arch development, usually between the ages of 4 and 6. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
