Patient's question:
The baby has been experiencing outward heel flipping since turning one year old. The doctor has been consulted and said there's no problem, suggesting wearing functional shoes and adding insoles. However, at two years old, there's still no improvement. It feels like the insoles don't fit well in the larger shoes, and the supporting help is ineffective. Without the insoles, there's a sense of unease.Doctor's answer:
In this situation, it is recommended to go to a specialized orthopedic hospital or a rehabilitation department for further correction. Treating the child from a young age tends to be more effective. Don't hurry. Parents should actively cooperate and it is best to undergo rehabilitation training. At least one year of treatment can be effective. If the correction continues but there is still no improvement, it means the treatment is not working, and it may be necessary to switch to a different approach. After all, the older the child gets, the harder it is to correct.
