I have a three years old son who toe walk and it’s hurt me to see him walking on his toe

grace....your brother kind of sticks out

Do you have more footage of this procedure?

I was born with crooked feet and legs turned inward call thank God my parents took action when I was an infant. Later in life and my late thirties my hello back add herniated discs from the pressure from the way I was born. When I was very young starting at under a year I was put in corrective shoes wish look like backwards shoes and also shoes that were on a bar that the doctor could adjust to straighten my legs and hips. Unfortunately as an older adult best put pressure on my lower back since I wasn't born that way. If you look at my legs and my feet you never know I had crooked feet and legs turned in and I think my parents for taking action as an infant but I also believe it is the reason for my low back pain today

im 12 and i got 2 ingrown toe nail but mines is so deep into my skin im so scared will i have to wear crutches after a procedure?

Hello, how long is the lengthening of the leg tendon surgery? Are the nerves damaged?

My child is like this condition 😭 until now she is never been checked by a doctor because of financial problem.

My 8 year old grand daughter toe walks. She does put her health down when standing still. And, she's very very smart. Asperger's?

How about rehabilitation for the muscles responsible for maintaining the arch?

i’m 13 and i don’t know if i should have this done😕

I have a pretty severe equinus, i toe walked till 10-12 years old. Then injuries to ankle knees and hip, plus adapting to the requirements of football mechanics, and also social conforming i started to normalise my gait. The issue being im just walking with the heels forced down with shit stability, poor muscular recruitment ect. Small orthotics down do anything. The increase in height just increases the amount my torso compensates by shifting backwards. Going to try larger wedges but i do t think it will achieve much as my resting no muscle tension position is similar to this girls. My question that i would appreciate, massively if you could answer is: Im scheduled for pre sugery meeting at the end of december but im really not doing great atm. Im basically just constantly crippled atm. In the meantime, would i actually be better off leaning in to the toe walking and strengthening the legs in a toe walking position? With the heels down or even anywhere near down my gait is awful. No consistancy, insanely ridgid, no real push off just diagonal shifting and i get frequent chained muscle spasms at this point. Am i just making things far worse? Just thinking about it, it makes a lot of sense that id injure my ankle, lose the ability to stabilise it as its a demanding task, and then never really gain the stability back as i would be attempting to rehab to a non equinus neutral, which i simply cant achieve due to the short tendons ect.

Hi im 13 and pigeon toes is it too late to fix it and is it too late

What is the recovery time?

I work at a kindergarten and we have a kid who ALWAYS walks on his tiptoes, has hyperactivity, and doesn't talk well. But he can easily interact with everyone around him, meaning he doesnt suffer from any social issues. Are these signs of ADHD or autism?

I have walked in my tip toes my whole life . The only weird thing I’ve had is both of my big toes crack a lot but I don’t know if that’s because of the toe walking or if it’s just my joints in my toes.

Mikel thnk u. I'am from Ethiopia, I've this problem on my child. She is six. Her foot is flat and can't wear shoes properly .How could I found u please😊?

I remember having one during the first year of the high school. It was the first time I was staying in a dormitory so I was really freaked out.

I had a wart excised when I was 4 years old. 45 years later, it still feels strange in that spot. Do I have nerve damage or is it just the traumatic memory of it?

Good... I thought i had canser when i searched it on BING

Was she on crutches?

Im 37 years old man I have the same problem walking on toe is possible to get surgery on my foot’s?

Oh my Lanta, I was not expecting all that

Hello sir Meri baby 3 years ki hai toeing karti hai usko kya therapy du pls batayiye

My daughter is 1.9 flat foot could it be the reason she has delayed walking?

My daughter had this surgery on 25/9/24 and now has to learn to straighten her leg which is painful and stiff.. she can’t start to walk until her legs are straight.. I just feel that she now has flat feet but now we have a new problem of not being able to straighten her legs.

Saw a teenage boy around 17 years old walking like this at the pet store yesterday. Very strange.

Sir I have lots of in my foot but I ignore them it does not hurt when I press it then it hurts and I see small new one growing I have small. But I don’t want to go to the doctor.. please reply and help me nd I don’t have humus stone

Thank you for this informative video. Worrier parents like myself really really appreciate it. Especially your reassuring advice. 😅

Hello doctor.. I am now 25 years old, when I was 9 years old I had a fracture in my left leg. I think during that time my Achilles tendon muscles shrank due to lack of exercise and caused my walking to be a little tiptoe. and for my posture now it seems like I have scoliosis. previously I have never had any surgery. do you have any suggestions? thank you

Personally, I switch between toe walking and flat footed movement depending on preference or efficiency. Toe walking is sometimes more efficient for me as it increases speed and agility. I personally believe it is okay to toe walk sometimes, while also knowing that flat footed walking is natural and necessary. My legs also aren't straight when I toe walk and my knees are bent to mimic a spring mechanism, similar how to some animals' legs work. From my experience, it strengthens my ankles to do this. In my veiw, it can be okay, but it can also become an issue. Toe walking shouldn't be a consistent way that you walk, but it is okay to an extent. My advice is to not overdo it if you can help it, and to not do it too much if you're inexperienced. With that said, just be mindful and prioritize your safety first! :)

I have toe walked in the house during quiet times. I can glide with my heels an inch off the ground never touching. Do it for hours without noticing. Wasn’t until I was married and my kids would stomp around the house. By the way I’m a middle aged man 180 5 11

Cerebral palsy had this done 17yrs ago, I had just turned 12. Biggest mistake..even my mom regreted agreeing to it, my stamina got worse, severe pain, my balance never recovered either and tendinitis to this day . Worst part is standing up from being seated. I hear oh but you'd be wheelchair bound otherwise, honestly that'd be preferable at this rate and almost likely because of the surgery at this rate

I first heard of toe-heel walking in regards to Native Americans. Its actually a more natural way of walking.

Please my daughter is 5 years she has flat feet and always complaining of pain please what should I do

After watching this, I'm slightly confused and frustrated. My 2 year old has been on a workup for CP since she was 6 months, and earlier this year, we discovered she has metatarsus adductus. Ortho and PM&R said no bracing needed, it should resolve itself. Now she runs (and mine you, she's been running since she started walking at 1, so this isn't something related to being new to running) with her legs swinging out, and I'm noticing more and more her legs are rotating inward from her hips. So I was told no treatment necessary for MTA, and now I hear that we basically missed our window for optimal response to treatment, plus she appears to have another condition, femoral anteversion, on top of it. She's complaining of pain more and more, too, which makes me feel so bad for her. Now I'm considering a second opinion, but it's so hard to get in anywhere, and I do love her neurologist and would hate to have to switch clinics and make communication a bit harder for the different doctors in different clinics.

I know what scared me straight was a bloke I had helped once he used to walk on his toes and so had a tight tendon I used to do the same he was simply walking on the beach and had his tendon snap said it was the worst pain he’s ever had and it was from walking on his toes he was warned and didn’t correct it, the simple thought of walking my kid down the beach an that happening has always stuck in my mind and I make sure correct myself

God I have this

My son is 10 and has been since birth. He has back pain. And leg pain

How can I contact you?

My almost 2 year old son has pronated feet with his ankles collapsing inwards when he walks and he cannot jump with both feet off the ground yet. He does have a little bit of arch when his feet is off of the ground and resting but when he puts it on the ground it is flat. Is this something I should be concerned about and should I bring him to a pediatric podiatrist or orthopedic for check up? Is there anything they can do for him this young? Also should I put arch support pads in his shoes?
