At the foot and ankle level, we can encounter chronic or acute conditions, many of which are hereditary, including the mounts, the "hammer toe", the flat feet, and even the ingrown nails. These conditions, as well as their evolution, are influenced by diet, exercise, lifestyle, age, associated conditions, and hormonal changes. Also, race has an important contribution. Asians, for example, have a lower bone density than the white race, whites have a lower bone density than the negro race. People belonging to the Negro race showed 20% fewer foot health conditions than whites, although the least develop a higher risk of suffering from calluses, corns, and flat feet.

Geographical area and nationality can influence the structure of the foot. The Mediterranean people have rather low plantar (foot) arches, and the northern Europeans have very high ones. Finally, in some ethnic and cultural communities, standards play an important role as their members can wear traditional, specific footwear. There are people who even suffer from the use of certain types of shoes, whose wear is strictly imposed by the rules.

Among the important arguments for understanding and preventing the causes of foot pain are awareness of the influence of hereditary factors (which cannot be changed) and those specific to lifestyle (which can often be changed) that can be decisive for foot health or conditions.
