Podopediatry

Children, like adults, are subject to podiatric conditions. In addition to frequent infectious disorders such as warts, they may inherit certain abnormalities, such as flat feet or other deformities.

Because children are often unable to articulate their discomfort, it is important as parents to know how to recognize the symptoms of these conditions. A intoe gait, poor posture of the feet and legs, and exaggerated muscle fatigue are among the signs that such disorders are affecting your little ones.

To spare them unnecessary suffering and irreparable harm, it is recommended to make use of the expertise and care of a podiatrist to address the conditions. By means of a training in the field of child development, he will determine the source of their pain, in addition to prescribing the appropriate treatment.

Some cases may require the wearing of orthotics. This solution can be highly effective because it can permanently correct some defects that could become intractable once adulthood is reached.

Thus, it is recommended to intervene early in child development, to overcome the complications that such pain can cause.
