Just recently I have started to have intense pains in the "arche" (I am flat footed) of my feet. I also have intense pain on the top of my feet and right at the tips of my toes where the toe nails end. My lower calf also feels as though it is cramping up. It is painfull to walk and my feet always crack. Some backround info. I am only 17 but played hockey for 10 years. My feet have developed a round ball of bone in what would be the arche. Whats going on?

Severe over pronation has caused there to be an exostosis (boney growth of bone). Your posterior tibial ligament may have collapsed; this is the ligament that holds the arch of the foot in place. This is caused due to excessive pronation and it also lead to pain at the top of the foot due to the structures of the foot being weakened. The conservative options are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, ultra sound, insoles and ice foot wraps. Surgical option includes the release of the tendon from the muscle belly proximally to distally around the medial malleolus and the insertion point on the navicular. Any tenosynovium is removed and any tearing within the tendon sutured.

I would recommend an ice foot wrap and sports insoles, click below for an example of the products you need.
