Foot Pronation
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
If you notice that your ankles tend to roll inward when you walk, it could be foot pronation: a natural movement in which the foot rotates slightly inward when it lands, which becomes relevant when it is excessive.
What it can cause: marked pronation may be associated with discomfort in the feet, ankles, knees or hips, especially when walking or running.
How it is observed: uneven wear of footwear or a flattened foot arch.
Which specialist evaluates it? The orthopedist and the physical therapist can analyze the gait and give guidance on support and mobility. When there is recurrent pain while walking, a professional evaluation helps to understand what is causing it.
