Summary

Pes planus is a musculoskeletal syndrome in which the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) of the foot is reduced or flattened. It results from a combination of static and dynamic abnormalities. Various predisposing factors such as increased weight, foot injury, and musculoskeletal disorders are associated with this problem. In addition, studies have emphasized that there is a significant relationship between abnormal foot posture and gait mechanics.

EXERCİSE

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of classical foot exercises and foot core exercises on pain, balance, gait and lower extremity performance in adolescents with pes planus. This study is planned to be a randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomly divided into 2 groups. Classic foot exercises will be applied to individuals in the classical foot exercises group for 12-15 minutes, and foot core exercises will be applied to individuals in the core exercises group for 12-15 minutes twice a week for a total of 8 weeks. Pes planus status of individuals included in the study will be evaluated with the navicular drop test. Pain will be evaluated with the foot function test, balance with the star balance test, gait analysis with the footprint method and lower extremity muscle performance with the functional muscle strength assessment for individuals in both groups before and after the application. The evaluations will be applied face to face by the same physiotherapi
