Abstract
Nowadays, one of the most critical health problems among young people is obesity. Because teenagers are still in the growing process, the foot shape and plantar footprints are very important to be analysed and potential problems to be identified. Young adulthood is a risky period for the development of obesity. This study aims to analyse the plantar footprints, the biomechanical parameters obtained through plantar pressure measurements, and the 3D shape of the foot and anthropometrical parameters obtained from scanning. By comparing the results, both feet have been demonstrated to be high arched, as well as high pressures were identified and differences from left to the right foot. With these results, prophylactic footwear and components can be designed, adapted to the subject’s feet.
