If I remember correctly, I read somewhere that many autistic people have flat feet.
When I was a little kid, I wore orthopedic shoes to correct my flat feet (which are still flat). :)

I don't. My sister has the flattest feet I've ever seen, though.

I don't but when I was in kindergarten my mother was warned by a doctor she should be careful what footwear I wore because I could have flat feet. But now I don't have any problems of this kind.

I have terribly flat feet.

When I was at university (I'm a physiotherapist) I used to be asked to show my feet to the second year students studying foot biomechanics.

My feet and funny knees were considered excellent examples of faulty lower limb biomechanics! :lol: Lucky I wasn't insulted. I was happy to help other students learn!

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Greatly arched. Like RichardBenson, I have a hard time finding shoes that fit.

Flat feet...pes planus...I collect arch supports. My feet are so flat my knees turn inward and my whole body hurts if I don't use supports in my shoes.

To those who have flat fee, do they hurt when you're on them for too long? Such as do they hurt when you work because you're standing for a long time for all those hours.

My ex had flat feet and they would they hurt when he was working and they still hurt the next day. My boyfriend has flat feet and they hurt when he works but he takes baths to help them and he doesn't use his foot problems as an excuse to not work. He doesn't let them stop him from working and my ex did so that's why he didn't work and had excuses.
