Cavus foot, characterized by a significantly high arch, can have various effects on the body. This condition places excessive weight on the ball and heel of the foot during walking or standing, leading to several signs and symptoms, including pain and instability. Cavus foot can develop at any age and may affect one or both feet.   When examining a cavus foot, the high arch remains prominent even while standing. Furthermore, individuals with this condition may experience additional symptoms such as hammertoes or claw toes (toes clenched like a fist), calluses on the ball, side, or heel of the foot, and discomfort when standing or walking. Due to the inward tilting of the heel, the foot can become unstable, potentially resulting in ankle sprains.   Some individuals with cavus foot may also encounter foot drop, a weakness in the muscles of the foot and ankle that leads to dragging the foot while walking. This combination of symptoms can affect mobility and overall foot function, necessitating proper evaluation and appropriate treatment to manage the condition effectively.
