Many foot conditions seen in adults are caused by childhood foot problems. Although pediatric and adult foot care is generally the same, there are many unique components of the developing\/pediatric foot. Therefore, basic pediatric foot care becomes slightly more challenging. We must keep in mind: children&#8217;s feet are always growing, activity level of children is generally higher compared to adults and the bones are still very resilient.<\/p>\n<p>As an infant grows, there are standard anatomical landmarks and developmental positions of the feet\/ankle\/legs. These developmental markers are directly related to age and gender. If you feel your child may have developmental delays of the legs, ankle or feet, Foot and Ankle Care of South Jersey is ready to evaluate any child for abnormal development.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1035178786\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner box-shadow-2 dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"pediatric office consultation\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-office.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1035178786 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-306432266\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1189406510\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner box-shadow-2 dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2016\" height=\"1512\" src=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care.jpg\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"pediatric foot care\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care.jpg 2016w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/pediatric-foot-care-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2016px) 100vw, 2016px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1189406510 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p>For infants, the shape and size of feet change rapidly. Infant bones are cartilagenous, soft and resilient. Many infants are born with positional and structural deformities of the ankle\/foot, which may be due to inrauterine pressure (in the mothers womb) or ill fitting foot wear. Pressure may restrict or change the still-forming foot. Toddlers should walk when ready to walk, first crawling, then gradually standing upright &#8220;crusing&#8221; &#8211; using arms and hands as a guide on furniture, walls etc, followed by upright walking. Gait problems are common when toddlers learn to walk; conditions such as toe walking, bouncing gait, bow legged and in-toeing are often outgrown, resolving on their own. Depending on the age, bones of the developing pediatric foot become hard between ages 8-10, with some smaller bones of the foot finally ossifying around age 14.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-923782619\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p>When it come to foot problems, early detection is key to treatment and future prevention. Pediatric foot and ankle problems are common in children due to their high levels of physical activity, but it&#8217;s easy for the signs and symptoms to go unnoticed as children are so resilient. To support your child&#8217;s foot health, monitor for signs and symptoms.<br \/>\nConsult with licensed pediatric podiatrist at Foot and Ankle Care of South Jersey if you notice ankles turning in more than usual; arches flattening more then other children of the same age; cramping, pain or limping when attempting to walk normally; change in your child&#8217;s desire to play actively outside. Children may need corrective shoes, orthotics, splints and other braces<\/p>\n<p>Should you have any questions or concerns regarding your child&#8217;s feet, ankles or legs, schedule an appointment at Foot and Ankle Care of South Jersey to be evaluated.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1484320620\" class=\"col medium-4 small-12 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1958224688\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner box-shadow-2 dark\" style=\"margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"259\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/sjfoot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/childs-foot.png\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1958224688 {\n  width: 90%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<style>\n#row-1806991976 > .col > .col-inner {\n  padding: 20px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-556","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.13 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>South Jersey Pediatric Foot Doctor | Child Podiatrist South Jersey<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Dr. Jeffery Rosenman provides Pediatric Foot and Ankle care for South Jersey.
