So here is my situation as it stands. I am an applicant for the Naval Academy Class of 2013 and I have flat feet. I have a medical waiver from DODMERB for this condition, and they have never caused me any type of pain or discomfort before now. I used to have special shoes that were designed to give me arch support, but I have not worn them in 2+ years now.
Unfortunately, today while I was jogging I have been having slight pain, but more of a discomfort in my ankles. It is at the front outside part, where the shin bones actually meet my foot.
My question is, if I go see a podiatrist about this and get orthotic shoes, will I have to reapply for a waiver, or will the existing one be fine as is?
I tried a search and nothing came up.
