[Evaluation of the effect of therapeutic exercise and supination shoe insert on static flatfoot in children].
The 3 year study included 469 children with flat feet in preschool and school age from a section of the town of Lodz. In 2 separate age groups the influence of exercises and/or hindfoot supinating inserts on the deformity regression has been assessed. The results were being compared at every stage of the study with the deformity evaluations in control group of not treated children. The best results have been recorded in children doing exercises and wearing inserts--in 50 percent the deformity retreated. Little potential for self correction of this deformity indicates mandatory treatment of all children with flat feet.
