If Your Child Has a Foot Deformity or Injury, Trust Our Podiatry Team to Find a Solution
Is your child is not participating as often in sports or in other physical activities or is complaining of foot pain?
If your child is not participating as often in sports or in other physical activities or is complaining of foot pain, don't think it's caused by "growing pains". Your child may have a common developmental foot condition such as flat feet that could be simply treated with a custom orthotic. In addition, parents may observe that their children are often falling or tripping and not able to keep up with normal activities. This may be due to a condition called in-toeing or out-toeing. Many childhood foot conditions can be helped with custom molded foot orthotic which is an insert that fits into the shoe that keeps the bones in the feet in their proper alignment. This can eliminate their foot pain and allow normal development as your child matures into adulthood. In addition, we also treat foot, toe and ankle fractures, ankle sprains, ingrown toenails and foot infections such as warts. Dr. Kales is committed to pediatric podiatry care and providing advanced treatment options for foot, heel & ankle pain. If your child is complaining of foot pain, make an appointment with Pasco-Hernando Foot & Ankle for a complete evaluation and help them enjoy healthy happy feet in the years ahead.
