Hi everyone,

I have an elderly lady who has one very flat foot and the other low arch but certainly not as low as the other. She has callosities over plantar met head area and generalized metatarsalgia. Both feet are quite rigid with all ROM in the foot and ankle joints below average. I would like to give her a cushioning insole to help with shock absorption but am not looking to correct the arch profile or give her something too aggressive as I think at this stage it would only worsen her pain. Do any of you have similar experience? And if so how did you manage this?
Thanks,
Linda
