Senior Podiatrist Jessie here with instalment 2 of our back to school series!
The key is prevention! We want to make sure your kids aren't sidelined by foot pain this year.
So when should you book them in? Here are some signs to watch for:
👟 Foot, ankle or leg pain: Especially during or after sport and activity.
🚶 Walking differently: Limping, toe walking, or tripping more than usual.
🩹 Frequent blisters or rubbing: Could indicate footwear or gait issues.
😣 Avoiding activities they used to love: Sometimes kids don't complain, they just stop participating.
📏 Growing pains that won't settle: Could be more than just growth.
👟 Shoes wearing unevenly: Can indicate alignment problems.
Catching issues early means we can keep them active, healthy and happy all year long.
