Children's Foot Problems

Children's Foot Problems
By Dr. Arnold Ross
For babies and newborns

Often I'm asked, "When is the best time to have my future child's feet checked?"

I answer, "If it is a breach birth, let us check before the child's head comes out!"



Early treatment is essential for most conditions of the feet seen in children and newborns. Their feet are pliable and correctable often with non-surgical techniques. What are some of these conditions?

1. Intoeing...due to many factors
2. Clubfoot
3. Equinas, or toe walking
4. Crooked toes
5. Calcaneal valgus and delayed walking
6. Ingrown toenails
7. Flatfeet
8. Bunions

Pleas feel free to call for a checkup for you and your baby.
