How can I manage pain from my high arches if I'm on my feet all day for work?

Asked 3 years ago

I'm a waiter who works quite long shifts. I also suffer from high arches. I'm looking for a way to manage the pain that occurs due to working these long hours. Can anyone help me out?

High arches will continue to cause you pain if you don't support them during your shifts. To forestall this, you may need to get a custom insole that is high enough to match your high arch. The insole will help distribute your body weight evenly and correct any biomechanical irregularities.
