Do Your Children's Feet Have Any of These Common Foot Problems?
Pigeon Toe (intoe) An inward position of the feet when standing or walking.
Out-Toe - Child walks like a duck.
Flatfeet - In children 3 years of older this should be evaluated.
Overlapping toes - These hereditary problems if caught early can be corrected without surgery.
Clumsiness - If your child stumbles over their own feet often it may be a sign of flat footedness or foot positional problems.
Warts, Nails and Skin Disorders - Rash, itchiness and deformed nails are common and easily treated.
Most of the above are hereditary and if evaluated early are treated without embarrassing shoes, casts or braces. We use the most modern techniques in children's foot care with complete cooperation from your pediatrician.
