Often Buying Large Shoes For Children Can Easily Suffer From Varus Or Hallux Valgus.

Too big shoes can easily suffer varus.

The skeleton of a child's foot is not fully developed, and it is different from adults' feet. Children's feet are mainly supported by cartilage. This vulnerability makes children wear shoes safely. Therefore, a pair of suitable shoes is very important if Children Improper wearing shoes for a long time may cause skeletal deformities such as flat feet and varus feet.

Department of orthopedics experts believe that children's feet grow fast. Parent It is not advisable for children to buy large size shoes for convenience. Not wearing fit The children's feet are unstable in their shoes, and they will shake left and right when they walk. If they continue, they will affect the walking posture and the growth and development of their feet, resulting in hallux valgus or hallux valgus deformity.

Of course, too small shoes will also affect the development of children's foot muscles and ligaments.

Some parents always want to dress up their children better. They are overdressed. The most common phenomenon is that children wear high-heeled shoes and too flat shoes. These shoes are usually not able to provide effective support and protection for the feet. The shoes at the bottom are too flat, which will not only increase the fatigue of the arch, but also lead to bone development and chronic heel pain. These problems are usually acute and may affect the child's life span.

At the early stage of the onset of the child's foot, the effects may only be limited to appearance, or easier to fatigue and fall, not too serious. However, the bones of children are constantly growing, and some foot problems are difficult to recover, such as varus or eversion.

　 What are the manifestations of varus?

1. for newborns, if there is one side or bilateral foot metatarsus varus deformity after birth, it is very likely that the foot is varus.

2. talus plantar flexion, calcaneus varus plantar flexion, Achilles tendon, plantar fascia contracture. The forefoot is widened, the heel is narrowed and the arch is high. The lateral malleolus is prominent and the medial malleolus is backward and not obvious.

3. just when learning to walk, the appearance of high and low legs is also a typical manifestation of varus.

4. the most obvious symptoms of children are unilateral malformation, walking claudication, bilateral deformity, walking and swaying, so parents should pay attention to observe and find abnormal treatment in time.

5. X ray. The angle between the talus and the first metatarsal axis is greater than 15 degrees. The angle between the calcaneal metatarsus and the longitudinal axis of the talus is less than 30 degrees. This is the scientific judgement of the existence of varus, which is persuasive by the testimony of the instrument.

　　 What are the manifestations of hallux valgus?

1, after birth, there are unilateral or bilateral plantar flexor varus deformity.

2, the front foot adduction varus, talus plantar flexion, calcaneus varus plantar flexion, Achilles tendon, plantar fascia contracture. The forefoot is widened, the heel is narrowed and the arch is high. The lateral malleolus is prominent and the medial malleolus is backward and not obvious.

3. When standing and walking, the outer edge of the plantar is weight-bearing. When the weight is serious, the external margin of the foot is weighed. Bursa bursa and callosum are seen in the weight-bearing area.

4, unilateral deformity, walking claudication, bilateral deformity, walking and swaying.

5. X ray photograph: the angle between the talus and the longitudinal axis of the first metatarsal is more than 15 degrees. The angle between the calcaneal metatarsus and the longitudinal axis of the talus is less than 30 degrees.
