High Arch
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
If you have noticed that your feet have a very pronounced arch or you have been told that you have cavus foot or a high arch, it is helpful to know that this is a foot shape in which the inner curve is higher than usual. This changes the way weight is distributed when walking.
How it may appear: Pain in the sole or heel, fatigue when walking, a tendency to twist the ankle, or uneven wear of footwear.
When is it worth evaluating? When it causes pain, instability, or frequent discomfort as you move.
Which specialist treats it? The orthopedist evaluates the structure of the foot, while the podologist or podiatrist handles foot care and support; the general practitioner can guide the first visit. Checking a high arch in time helps prevent discomfort and lets you move more comfortably.
