The development of children’s feet is a gradual process that can take several years. Unlike adult feet, children’s feet are still forming, and it is essential to monitor their progress to identify any potential issues early on.
Is your child experiencing any of the following?
-
- Flat feet – A condition where the arches of the feet are collapsed, causing the entire sole to make contact with the ground.
- In-toeing or out-toeing. In-toeing is where the feet turn inward while walking, while out-toeing occurs when the feet turn outward.
- Toe walking – Where a person walks on the balls of their feet, with little or no contact between the heels and the ground.
- Growing Pains – When a child often complains of a dull, throbbing ache in their legs, especially at night.
- Frequent tripping while walking or running.
- Pain during walking.
- Overlapping toes.
- Warts.
