CHILDREN'S FEET SHOULD NOT HURT.
If your son or daughter is not participating as often in sports or in other physical activities or is complaining of foot pain, don't think it's caused by "growing pains". Your son or daughter may have a common developmental foot condition such as flat feet that could be simply treated with a custom foot orthotics.
In addition, parents may observe that their children are often falling or tripping and not able to keep up with normal activities. This may be due to a condition called in-toeing or out-toeing.
Many childhood foot conditions can be helped with custom orthotics which is an insert that fits into the shoe that keeps the bones in the feet in their proper alignment. This can eliminate their foot pain and allow normal development as your child matures into adulthood.
Common Pediatric Foot & Ankle Conditions Include:
TOE WALKING
FLAT FEET
PIGEON TOES
So, if your son or daughter is suffering from foot or ankle pain book an appointment with PodiatryCare and the Heel Pain Center for a comprehensive evaluation.
