Signs Your Child May Need a Podiatrist

How Our Podiatrists Assess Children’s Foot Concerns
A good treatment plan starts with understanding your child’s symptoms, movement and development.
Parent and Child Discussion
We discuss your concerns, your child’s symptoms, activity level, school sport, footwear and any injury history.
Foot and Lower Limb Assessment
Your podiatrist may assess foot posture, joint movement, flexibility, balance, walking patterns and areas of pain.
Gait and Movement Review
Where appropriate, we assess how your child walks or moves to identify patterns that may be contributing to discomfort.
Footwear Review
Bring your child’s school shoes, sports shoes and everyday shoes where possible. Footwear can provide useful clues about fit, pressure and support.

Your treatment plan may include footwear advice, activity guidance, stretching, strengthening, nail care, orthotics where appropriate or referral where needed.
Parent Guidance
We explain the findings clearly so parents know what to monitor, what can be managed and when follow up may be needed.
