There are many children that experience foot conditions during their childhood and teenage years. The ankle may become weak from frequently participating in running and jumping activities, and this may result in ankle sprains. This typically causes difficulty in walking, and mild relief may be felt when the affected foot is elevated and wrapped with an elastic bandage. Older teens may develop a condition known as athlete’s foot. This is caused by a fungus that lives in warm environments, and can thrive in moist socks and sneakers. Active children may develop blisters on their feet. This is often caused by excess friction that can come from wearing shoes that do not fit correctly. If you would like additional information about foot conditions your child may have developed, it is advised that you speak to a podiatrist.
The health of a child’s feet is vital to their overall well-being. If you have any questions regarding foot health, contact the podiatrists of Dr. Siegerman & Associates. Our doctors can provide the care you need to keep you pain-free and on your feet.
