Custom insoles for foot deformities
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial tests custom 3D-printed insoles to see if they improve foot pressure and comfort in people with foot deformities like flat feet or bunions. If you have a foot deformity and can wear insoles daily, this study may help you walk more comfortably.
