Answers:
The first thing you should do is strengthen your arches and the surrounding muscles that help to support your medial arch.. The simplest thing to start with is toe curls.. Start gathering a towel with your toes (scrunching your toes) and perform this about 5-6 times a day.. You should also look up resistance exercises that involve internal and external rotation of your foot.. (A little hard to describe without pictures).. Hope that helps..Health Question & Answer
