Palpitation is an awareness of the abnormal beating of the heart. It may occur in people with or without heart problems. Heart palpitations when lying down is not a common occurrence and can be caused by various factors.
Flat feet occur when the normal foot arches have partially or completely collapsed. When the foot is put to the ground the inner or middle side of the foot comes down to the floor rather than remaining raised. This can cause the whole foot to roll inwards (this is called over-pronation).
The exact cause is unknown. 1  However, some experts believe the following may play a role in the development of this condition: 2  Abnormal positioning of toes. 3  Flat feet. 4  Forefoot problems, including bunions and hammer toes. 5  High foot arches. 6  Tight shoes and high heels.
