Pain from orthotics

I have questions about your question:

1. What makes you associate pain in shoulder, arm and wrist with pronated feet?

2. Why and on what basis were orthotics apparently made for that diagnosis?

3. If orthotics custom made for you did you no good, what made you think that off-the-shelf ones would?

4. If WITHOUT orthotics you have "terrible arch pain," why did you state, as you did in your post's title, that you are having pain FROM orthotics?

5. Why did you only mention actual foot symptom (arch pain) as an apparent after-thought?
