I used to wear custom orthotics when I was seven, but I don't need them now. I never had any pains. Does this bar entry?

Hello,
Medical based questions are not something that we can answer on here as everybody has a different medical history. I am inclined to think that it shouldn't cause an issue, but the only person who can definitively make a decision is one of our medical officers. This will only be done on receipt of an application and in response to the answers you give on the online medical questionnaire.
