Hi there!

Well, though flat feet can be corrected surgically, a surgical correction is not advisable in most cases. Most symptomatic mild to moderate cases are managed conservatively with medications, physiotherapy, orthotic devices etc. It would be best to seek a review with your treating orthopedician for suggestion of an appropriate management plan.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
