Children & Walking Problems
Comprehensive Pediatric Gait Care
Expert Care for Children’s Walking Problems
As children begin to walk, it’s common for parents to notice differences in the way their child’s feet or legs move. While some gait variations are part of normal development, others may signal conditions that need attention. Common walking issues include in-toeing, out-toeing, or toe-walking, which can sometimes cause tripping, discomfort, or long-term alignment problems if left untreated.
We provide thorough evaluations to identify the cause of your child’s gait disturbance and determine whether treatment is necessary. Depending on the diagnosis, care may include observation, stretching, supportive footwear, orthotics, casting, or, in rare cases, surgical intervention.
Our goal is to promote healthy growth and proper alignment, giving your child the best foundation for pain-free movement. With early detection and the right treatment, many walking concerns can be corrected or improved before they become long-term issues.
