Coloured X-ray of a womans flat foot
Flat foot. Coloured X-ray of the flat foot of a 25 year old woman. The decreased arching of the foot in this condition, also known as pes planus, means that her sole lies flat on the ground. The bones are blue and flesh is orange. The heel bone (lower left), metatarsals and tarsals are almost aligned in a straight line. Nearly all babies have flat feet, the arches only developing during childhood as the feet muscles and ligaments grow stronger. However in people with weak muscles and ligaments the arch can fail to develop. Flat feet can also develop in adults, for example in people who gain weight rapidly. Treatment with arch supports and exercise is only needed if the feet are painful

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a coloured X-ray of a 25-year-old woman's flat foot, revealing the intriguing anatomy and condition known as pes planus. The image vividly portrays the decreased arching of her foot, causing her sole to rest entirely on the ground. In this visual representation, bones are depicted in an enchanting shade of blue while flesh appears strikingly orange. Upon closer examination, one can observe how the heel bone is positioned in the lower left corner, aligning almost perfectly with both metatarsals and tarsals in a straight line. It is worth noting that most infants possess flat feet initially; however, their arches gradually develop during childhood as muscles and ligaments strengthen. Unfortunately, for individuals with weak muscles and ligaments like our subject here, this natural development may fail to occur. Flat feet can also manifest in adults due to factors such as rapid weight gain. While treatment involving arch supports and exercise becomes necessary only if pain ensues from this condition, it is fascinating to explore the medical intricacies behind such deformities. This thought-provoking photograph serves as a reminder of how medicine continuously strives to understand disorders like flat feet while providing appropriate healthcare solutions for those affected by them.
