Footwear and Developing Miletones in Children’s Feet

From a young age, children’s feet are constantly evolving and changing shape. As a result, footwear is very important as your child progresses from their first steps to running around playing sports. Here are some common milestones to look for in your kids’ feet, and what to look for in footwear.

6 months – 2 years

Your kids’ feet are soft and malleable with a fused bone structure. We highly recommend walking barefoot to strengthen the muscles and develop correct bone structure.

FOOTWEAR TIP: look for a soft, flexible outsole with minimal structure. This allows the natural motion of the foot.

2 years – 6 years

Each bone in the foot is starting to form. Fatty tissue surrounds the foot, which will eventually form the shape of the foot.

FOOTWEAR TIP: shoes need to be durable, lightweight and flexible. Firm heel counters are necessary to hold the heel in place,

6 years – 16 years:

The foot is now taking shape and requires more support. High impact activities can cause stress on their feet. This is worsened by poor fitted, unstable shoes.

FOOTWEAR TIP: sturdy heel counter, stable midfoot and flexibility in the toes are vital to support the foot during the gait cycle

16 years +

The foot has now fully developed into 26 bones and over 100 muscles/tendons/ligaments that require support

FOOTWEAR TIP: extra stability in the heel and midfoot to prevent over-pronation (flat footedness) whilst remaining flexible in the forefoot. Each shoe has different levels of stability to support the different foot types and shapes.

If you have had any issues or want to speak to a podiatrist about how to manage your child’s feet call us on (08) 9349 1777 to book an appointment with one of our friendly podiatrists today.

Dr7 Physiotherapy and Podiatry provides services to the suburbs of Yokine, Tuart Hill, Osborne Park, Stirling, Nollamara, Dianella, North Perth and surrounding suburbs. Our friendly Physiotherapists and Podiatrists have appointments available Monday-Saturday.

Bookings are available on our website or over the phone.

WHAT DOES OUR PODIATRIST ANGELO TREAT

Having been a podiatrist for approximately 4 years, our Senior Podiatrist Angelo has been exposed to all aspects of podiatry at Dr7 Podiatry Yokine. From diabetic risk assessments and foot care, to paediatric sports injuries and disability rehabilitation, he has seen and treated patients from all ages and backgrounds. He has also worked alongside several soccer teams in Perth to provide acute management of lower leg injuries.

Over the past years, Angelo has developed a strong interest in pain and injury rehabilitation, with a particular focus on ankle injuries and rehabilitation. Having injured and fractured his ankle twice in 18 months, he knows from personal experience just how important it is to rehabilitate and treat the ankle with care to prevent long-term complications and risk re-injury. Angelo uses a variety of mobilisation, needling, massage and strapping techniques, along with isolated exercise and strength/conditioning programs to guide you through your rehabilitation and ensure you return to activities in peak condition and with full confidence in your body.

He also retains a special interest in paediatric podiatry. Having completed several courses and attended several paediatric-specific conferences over the years, Angelo is fully competent to diagnose, treat and provide long-term advice for kids ranging from 1 years of age through to adolescent years at Dr7 Podiatry Joondanna. He predominately treats ‘growing pains’ such as Severs Disease, Osgood-Schlatters and Freiburg’s Disease, and also works with a lot of state and district football, cricket, netball and soccer players for ankle, calf and foot injuries. Angelo’s main aim is to keep you playing without having to cease your activity levels. Injury management generally covers footwear changes and modifications, massage and release and providing strength and conditioning training for young athletes.

Other conditions Angelo is competent to assess and treat include but are not limited to:

Bunions
Rheumatoid Arthritis pain
Morton’s Neuroma and bursitis
Achilles tendinopathies
Peroneal tendinopathies
Patello-femoral pain
Metatarsal stress fractures

If suffering from acute/chronic injuries or pain, book in for an extensive biomechanical analysis and treatment with Angelo at Dr7 Physiotherapy and Podiatry in Yokine.

Dr7 Physiotherapy and Podiatry provides services to the suburbs of Yokine, Tuart Hill, Joondanna, Osborne Park, Stirling, Nollamara, Dianella, North Perth and surrounding suburbs. Our friendly Physiotherapists and Podiatrists have appointments available Monday-Saturday.

A lot of people ask me, “what do Podiatrists actually do?”. The common perception of our profession is the ability to only treat toenails and hard skin. I can guarantee we do so much more than that! Podiatrists are university trained to assess, diagnose, manage and treat all foot and ankle conditions in a conservative manner. If the case requires a surgical or more invasive treatment, we are able to refer on to Podiatric Surgeons or other professionals who can provide the service. As general podiatrists, we commonly treat the conditions below:

Bunions / hammer toes / Tailor’s bunions
Heel / arch pain / plantar fasciitis.
Ingrown toenails.
Warts.
Callus (hard skin / cracked heels).
Corns (pin-points of hard skin).
Fungal toenails / skin.
Morton’s neuroma (sharp, shooting forefoot pain).
Diabetic feet
Sports injuries; ankle, midfoot, forefoot.
Gait/Walking abnormalities
Paediatric conditions; club foot, pigeon toeing.

For the next few weeks I will talk more about the conditions above and go over signs and symptoms and when is the appropriate time to come in to be assessed by a qualified, AHPRA registered Podiatrist.

Any other foot problems not on the list? No worries, come and have your feet examined now at Dr7 Podiatry, call 9349 1777 to make an appointment.
