Kids Foot and Ankle Pain – What’s the message for parents

Kids Foot and Ankle Pain - Whats the message for parents

Transcript
First, I think the message I'd like to give them is that pain is not normal.

Pain is actually our body's way of saying that there is a problem.

I think, next, I'd say you don't have to wait for them to grow out of it.

This is a really old school way. And on most occasions, there's really active therapies practitioners can use to get your child back into activity, if they really know what they're doing.

Look, I think as foot doctors, it's our job to get kids back to happy, healthy and active, and as soon as we can.
