“…Kelainan flat foot dalam jangka panjang akan menyebabkan nyeri pada telapak kaki, pergelangan kaki dan lutut, selain itu juga akan menyebabkan trauma akut yang berulang hingga terjadinya deformitas pada kaki (Wardanie, 2013). Meskipun sebagian besar kasus flat foot bersifat fisiologis, namun jika masalahnya memburuk dapat menimbulkan gejala dan berdampak pada fungsi kaki penderitanya (Vadivelan, 2015). Berdasarkan hipotesis yang diajukan, derajat flat foot dikategorikan menjadi normal, derajat 1, derajat 2, dan derajat 3 (Pourghasem, Kamali, Farsi, & Soltanpour, 2016).…”

The aim of this service activity is to increase understanding about the use of rigid custom foot orthoses in reducing the degree of flatfoot in students with flat feet. Method: counseling/education regarding the effect of using rigid custom foot orthoses in reducing the degree of flat foot for teachers. After being given counseling, the teachers were guided and trained to apply the use of rigid custom foot orthoses in order to increase understanding regarding the need to use custom foot orthoses for flat foot sufferers. Then intervention was carried out in the form of providing custom foot orthoses to students who experienced flat feet. Results: more than 80% of participants understood about one of the musculoskeletal disorders of the foot, namely flat foot, more than 75% of participants were able to understand the effect of using a rigid custom foot orthosis in reducing the degree of flat foot, after follow-up for approximately 1 month several children conveyed comfortable and always using the tool, they said that the arches of his legs were starting to appear. Conclusion: outreach activities and implementation of the use of rigid custom foot orthoses in reducing the degree of flat foot can help the community in dealing with flat feet in children.

“…Flat foot produces biomechanical stress, causing a compensatory internal rotation of the tibia or femur and abnormal patellofemoral mechanism. 11 In flat foot, the load on medial arch increases to 17% whereas only 4 % load falls in medial side of normal foot. 12 Thus resulting in abnormal kinetic chain stresses on pelvis and spine and may lead to pain, fatigue and uneven distribution of pressure which subsequently leads to slow walking speed and may result in reduced function, decrease in absorption of impact and loss of postural balance.…”

Background: Maintaining upright posture and balance is essential for all bipedal activities. Central nervous system in conjunction to peripheral nervous system, sensory system and neuromuscular system maintains the postural balance. The lower extremity kinetic chain plays a vital role in maintaining balance. Flat foot is one most common lower extremity malalignment. Abductor hallucis and gluteus maximus muscles are reported to control flatfoot. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of Gluteus maximus and Abductor hallucis muscle strengthening on balance in school going children with pronated foot. Material and Method: 40 healthy school going children of 7-10 years with either gender were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Foot posture index and Pediatric berg balance (PBS) score were recorded prior and post exercise. Gluteus maximus and Abductor hallucis muscle strength training were prescribed for 5 days a week for 5 weeks. All variables were assessed post 5 weeks. Result: After the prescribed period of exercises, it became apparent that Foot FPI and PBS value scored significantly higher when analyzed using the paired t test at p≤0.05. Conclusion: Strengthening of Gluteus maximus and Abductor hallucis muscle has significant effect in improving balance in school going children with over pronated foot.

Background: Taping is widely used intervention in various conditions treated by physiotherapist. Neurodevelopmental disorders in children leading to foot abnormality is one of the major concen. As taping is one of the intervention in same the study is focusing taping on pronated feet in the selected age group. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the kinesiotaping and exercise improve pronated feet in neurodevelopmental disordered (NDD) children. Patients and Methods: This was a cross over study, within subjects study evaluating two treatments, kinesio tape, and exercise. Thirty subjects with age group 6–12 years diagnosed with NDD having pronated feet. Subjects were allocated in the two groups. Group 1 included subjects for taping and Group 2 included subjects for exercise. Taping was applied for two consecutive weeks for 5 days per week and then 2 weeks of the window period, which was followed by two consecutive weeks of exercise sessions for 5 days per week. The navicular drop test and Foot Posture Index were measured pre and post treatment. Foot posture index used to examine the posture of foot and navicular drop test. Results and Conclusion: Group 1 (taping) and Group 2 (exercises) showed no significant results as a single entity, whereas there was a small effect seen of the intervention.
