Hello Team, I am 60 years old female with flat foot and have been suffering from severe inflammation and pain in the ankle along with joint pains. I consulted several orthopedists and all of them prescribed pain killers for 1 week to 2 weeks. I feel relieved while using the tablets and the pain is back when I stop taking them. I am also using foot correction cheppal with arch support from 10 years. Is there a solution for this? Please suggest. Thanks in Advance!

You may change the footwear whatever using now by replacing it with medial arch insole in sports shoe. Before all this you need to be examined by a therapist whether Occupational therapist or physical therapist.
