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).
Both increase the stress, which â depending on the individual and the amount of running â can become excessive and cause injury. Because pronation is a twisting of the foot, all of the muscles and tendons which run from the leg and ankle into the foot will be twisted. In over-pronation, resulting laxity of the soft tissue structures of the foot and loosened joints cause the bones of the feet shift. When this occurs, the muscles which attach to these bones must also shift, or twist, in order to attach to these bones.
