1. Moderate overpronation
2. Functional LLD due to pelvic torsion
3. Exaggerated internal tibial rotation with an abducted foot
4. Pes planus
5. Plantar fasciitis

I have put the pt in orthotics which are worn for 1/2 hour two to three times per day. Pt has bi lateral bruising on the medial side of the knees from the orthotics. They are posted minimally.
