Does your little one prefer tiptoe walking? Dr. Rohit Jain, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at Myra Hospital, Kalyan, explains why it's important to understand this behaviour.

What is Toe-Walking?
Toe-walking is when a child walks on their toes or balls of their feet without their heels touching the ground. It's usually normal in young children but can sometimes indicate underlying conditions like cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, or autism spectrum disorder.

When Should Parents Worry?
If your child continues toe-walking after age 2, it's a good idea to consult a pediatric orthopedic surgeon. Other signs to watch for include tight leg muscles, stiffness in the Achilles tendon, or difficulty walking flat-footed.

How Do Pediatric Orthopedics Treat It? Treatment often involves physiotherapy, stretching exercises, and sometimes orthotic devices to help stretch the muscles and tendons. In rare cases, surgery might be needed to lengthen the Achilles tendon.

World Obesity Day, observed on March 4, highlights the global obesity epidemic and its serious health implications. Dr. Rohit Jain, a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at Myra Superspeciality Clinic, Kalyan, explains how obesity affects children's bones and joints.

Obesity is defined by excessive body fat that can lead to serious health issues. In India, 12.5 million children aged 5-19 years were overweight in 2022. This surge in childhood obesity brings problems like joint pain and early arthritis.
Excess weight places additional stress on a child's musculoskeletal system, leading to conditions like slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) and Blount's disease. Obese children are at higher risk of fractures and may face complications during treatment due to their weight.

Unhealthy eating habits, particularly overeating junk food, and a lack of play and exercise are significant factors. Children who don't get enough physical activity are more likely to gain weight, creating a vicious cycle. Once they become obese, they find it difficult to engage in physical activities, further exacerbating the issue.
On this World Obesity Day, let's join hands to ensure our children grow healthy and fit, so they can enjoy their childhood with lots of fun and activity, free of any pain.
