Is Foot Care Really Important for Kids?

Children’s feet are pretty new, and the idea that they might have some issues there doesn’t cross many people’s minds. Kids are always running and playing, and it’s hard to imagine that something isn’t right unless there’s an obvious limp or visual mark.

Unfortunately, many children have foot conditions that can potentially affect them for the rest of their lives. A visit to a foot doctor is the best method of defense as it can provide the following two benefits.

It Provides Preventative Care

Foot conditions come from many different things, including the structure of the foot, wearing shoes that don’t fit properly, and minor injuries. Factors like these are common in children as they don’t always notice an issue. They’re still new to the world and lack some experience necessary to help them pinpoint issues. And sometimes, they just don’t know how to articulate things that they feel.

For example, when you take your child shoe shopping, they can usually tell you when something hurts. However, they don’t quite understand what support is, so they’re unlikely to tell you that there’s not enough.

After wearing the shoe for a couple of days, they might tell you their feet hurt but may not be able to tell you exactly where or how. And it’s easy to discount any pain as new shoe discomfort.

This is just one of the areas that the specialists at Family Foot & Ankle Associates of Maryland can help. They’ll do an examination and ask questions to ensure that your child’s foot is developing properly. They’re trained to notice things that you and your child might not see. They’ll also give you any necessary recommendations or treatment options for potential future problems.
