When we examine a child, around what age can we expect a normal foot arch?

A: around 2 years of age

B: around 8 years of age

The correct answer is B. It is important to know that children are not born with a fully developed foot arch especially when consulting worried parents. Children around the age of 3 have a small arch that further develops until the age of 8-10 years. Flat feet are usually asymptomatic and shouldn't stop children from doing any activities, including sports.

C: around 16 years of age
