Foot and ankle problems.
The most common reason for children presenting to the general or the pediatric orthopedist has to do with foot problems. The usual age group ranges from the neonate to preschool. The authors have made an attempt to present guidelines for our approach to foot problems other than clubfoot in these age groups and have rendered our recommendations for treatment. We feel that pediatric and general orthopedists will be able to utilize our methods in the management of the pediatric patient with the more commonly presenting foot disorders.
