Understanding the Importance of Pediatric Podiatry Services
Foot pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems between the ages of 10 and 13. Foot disability and impairments can persist into adulthood as well. That is why spotting serious joint pains (e.g., juvenile arthritis) early is of the utmost importance. By seeking pediatric podiatry services, children can avoid these lower body issues in adulthood and lead healthy and active lifestyles.
