Does Your Child Need Surgery for Toe Walking? Dr. Jarman Explains
Toe Walking can be a concern for many parents, but how do you know if your child needs surgery? Join Dr. Mikkel Jarman, a leading pediatric foot and ankle specialist, as he explains the criteria used to determine whether surgical intervention is necessary for toe walking in children.
In this insightful video, Dr. Jarman outlines the key factors he considers: the age of the child, the results of the Silfverskiold test, and the effectiveness of conservative care. He explains why children over the age of 7-8 years are more likely to require surgery and how a clinical assessment like the Silfverskiold test helps diagnose the underlying causes of toe walking. Dr. Jarman also discusses the importance of proper conservative care and why it sometimes fails to correct the condition.
With his extensive experience and clear communication, Dr. Jarman provides parents with valuable information to help them make informed decisions about their child's foot health.
If you’re concerned about your child's toe walking, Dr. Jarman and his team at Pediatric Foot & Ankle are here to provide expert guidance and care.

    After watching this, I'm slightly confused and frustrated. My 2 year old has been on a workup for CP since she was 6 months, and earlier this year, we discovered she has metatarsus adductus. Ortho and PM&R said no bracing needed, it should resolve itself. Now she runs (and mine you, she's been running since she started walking at 1, so this isn't something related to being new to running) with her legs swinging out, and I'm noticing more and more her legs are rotating inward from her hips. So I was told no treatment necessary for MTA, and now I hear that we basically missed our window for optimal response to treatment, plus she appears to have another condition, femoral anteversion, on top of it. She's complaining of pain more and more, too, which makes me feel so bad for her. Now I'm considering a second opinion, but it's so hard to get in anywhere, and I do love her neurologist and would hate to have to switch clinics and make communication a bit harder for the different doctors in different clinics.

    My almost 2 year old son has pronated feet with his ankles collapsing inwards when he walks and he cannot jump with both feet off the ground yet. He does have a little bit of arch when his feet is off of the ground and resting but when he puts it on the ground it is flat. Is this something I should be concerned about and should I bring him to a pediatric podiatrist or orthopedic for check up? Is there anything they can do for him this young? Also should I put arch support pads in his shoes?

    I had several of these on the bottom of one of my feet when I was a child. They were large, deep-rooted, and would make it awkward/sometimes painful to walk. I was told by my doctor at the time to try wrapping them in duct tape. After a while of them not going away, I was about to have them frozen off, but I chickened out at the appointment. So I was instructed to continue using duct tape for a while, and to my surprise, it ended up working. One day the warts began to rapidly shrink, then disappear.

    i had serious plantar warts on my left big toe from 2017 to 2019 when i was 14-16 years old. later around 2018 when i paid attention to them and tried treating them with home and homeopathic remedies, they spread to my fingers and other toes. doctors had told me to either get them surgically removed or through the freezing method. i didn’t want either. FINALLY what worked for me was OREGANO OIL! this essential oil was amazing for getting rid of my warts and within a few weeks of using it regularly, my toes were back to being normal. phew! hope this helps anyone struggling with those disgusting warts 🥴 and ure not alone !

    Im curious how you would conduct this procedure with a toddler aged 3? Chances are they'll be scared and not sit still, what would the protocol be to remove the ingrown toe nails because they're feet are in constant pain so you have no choice.

    • @PediatricFootAnkle
      @PediatricFootAnkle 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Depending on the severity of the ingrown and considering any previous treatment received, would determine which procedure would be appropriate. Medical staff is very good at distraction for younger patients when necessary; that and calm reassuring parents. Regarding pain, the pinch from the numbing agent is what the patient feels. Post procedure, (next day) there can be some discomfort easily addressed with something over the counter for pain relief. Thanks for watching our video.

    This is very similar to my situation. I toe walked well into my teens, but I always had the ability to walk flat, I just consistently reverted back because it was more comfortable. The doctors warned my mother that I would need this surgery if I didn't get a handle on it. Thankfully I have been able to maintain my flat walking, but I still deal with a lot of tightness and pain. I'm in my late thirties and I still have to think about each step I take.

    I'm 40, and have been walking on my toes my whole life. I can walk flat footed, but it does not feel natural. I ran track and was actually really fast because I I used my legs more like springs. I was also heavily into martial arts and developed great balance on my toes. When I wear normal shoes I tend to walk flat footed but I don't like it and wear flip flops or go barefoot whenever possible. If it helps I am on the spectrum so I have a few odd habits. My son who is almost 20 walks normally unless he's running or stressed and then walks on his toes.

      I have provided a link that may help you prevent recurring ingrowns. You mention the "whole" nail was cut. In our clinic, when indicated, we will remove the whole nail. I think that's what you are referring to. Factors that can contribute to an ingrown nail developing are improper toenail trimming, toe injuries, tight-fitting shoes, and of course genetics. Review the link and let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for watching our video. pediatricfootankle.com/foot-conditions/ingrown-toenails/

      For children between the ages of one and four, the Surestep SMO (supramalleolar orthosis) is an excellent choice to provide the necessary support and stability while still allowing for normal foot development. A prescription is necessary for this device. The links below may be helpful regarding the orthosis and finding a provider where you live for an evaluation of your daughter's feet. Please contact us directly with any other questions. And thanks for watching our video. surestep.net/products/ www.apma.org pediatricfootankle.com/contact-directions/

    I'm 45 and I did this until I was around 5 or 6 years old and I have no idea why. I don't even remember when or how I switched to walking normally but I know I never saw a doctor for it. I have ADHD but otherwise I don't have any conditions I'm aware of, and my ADHD is fairly mild now (though it was rather severe in elementary and middle school). My memories of this are very strange. I didn't give it any thought until I was with my biological dad one day (who I didn't see very often) and he told me to stop walking like a girl. From then on I became very self conscious about it and I think this may be the main reason I stopped doing it. Before that I had no idea that what I was doing was usual.

    I have this…well…had this. Left foot: 40° off the ground, right foot: 35°. The doctor said it was the worst he’s seen in a while. Nothing genetic caused it. It was just birth defect type of thing. 10 years ago I got surgery to correct it. Got it done on both feet at the same time. My right foot has been fantastic and has a full range of motion like a normal foot. My left foot was slightly under corrected and so even though I could put it flat, it wouldn’t go past that, This caused scar tissue buildup on the joint and other problems to start happening in the left foot. I actually just had another surgery 4 days ago to correct it. Doctor says my range of motion has increased by about 5%-10%. We’ll see for sure when I start PT next week but I can already tell that it’s improved just from the fact that my foot lays flat on the boot without any issues.

    I toe walked all throughout my youth. I only began to adapt due to injuries and became more aware about how abnormal it was. The age i started to change my gait was around 11-13. At some point i injured the ball of my right foot and this prevented me walking in the same way. To deal with this, i began to twist my right ankle outwardsso i could use the arch as a spingboard rather than the directly over the toes. This lead to the second stage of walking. I would walk with essentially a trendeleburg gait. Using my left leg as a pole type pivot and swinging my right leg. This gait pattern was never consistent and it tended to switch in and out of different faulty gait patterns. Overall, the most common one was an antalgic gait, according to my chiropracter. My standing position generally includes most of my weight over my left leg whereas my right has 20% if its feeling very good. I also tend to put more weight on my forefoot, and tend to avoid putting weight on my heel. It recently clicked for me that throughout my entire life i have avoided putting weight on my right heel. Either its painful and im so wired to not go there to avoid the pain that i stuggle to even begin the movement necessary. The thing is, i do have severely limited dorsiflexion on both sides, mainly my right but i dont really get pain in my lower leg much anymore, probably due to the fact i put way less weight on it now. I did during the gait change period say 12-16 get really bad shin splints and the ankle joint itself felt very stiff and sore. How likely is it that this is the cause of all my issues? Im now stuck in a fake version of left stance, from what i understand, it seems like due to the naturally asymmetric nature of our brain and body composition, i developed into the standard left aic right bc postural pattern. I however was toe walking so i was never really usinng the right stance properly and certainly was never really able to shift out of the left aic pattern into left stance. This was my base posture. I then injured various elements of my right leg, needed to opperate in my stuck right stance, so my body desperately seeked a way to shift onto my left leg. I had no way to push properly into my left side, and no idea how i would even do that anyway. But i NEEDED, to be able to shift weight onto the left leg. This has lead to me, being in right stance, but heavily twisting my body to the left, and despite still being stacked over the right leg, with the ribs closer to the hips on that side, i then lean that entire structure over to the left. My default posture now is this right stance position with everything twisted and leaning to force weight distribution onto my left leg. Repetitive Rotation Superior T8 Syndrome pattern. Is the name given to the postural pattern i find myself in. The pain i tend to get comes from the lower back and hips, rather than the ankles and lower legs. What i would love to know, and really appreciate your input on, would be: How likely is it that my problems all stem from restricted ankles and short achillies, or would it be more likely to stem from elsewhere? Added info. Ive had a hip xray and structurally it is relatively normal. Theres clear signs the pelvis is both angled down to the left and also twisted. This is causing a functional leg length discrepancy, making my right side effectively shorter, and therefore making it even more difficult to, first get propperly into right stance and then to be able to truelly shift into left stance. I also have diagnosed adhd and im not diagnosed with autism, but i do exhibit very mild indication.

    I am currently 14 years old I have been toe walking ever since I learned to walk , I toe walk even in shoes ( recently my parents asked me to walk properly and when I put my feet correctly it hurts my calves and I feel a stretch ) I went to a physiotherapist and did some therapy for a couple weeks which helped relieve the pain but the problem is that I can’t stand with my heels completely touching the floor and it hurts when I walk normally and even while doing any sort of activity I went to an orthopedist and they straight up told me that at this age I have to under go gastrocnemius surgery .. which is done in a government hospital near the area … I do not know what to do . I went to the orthopedist the doc had told us about they did certain check ups and sent me to a neurologist for a check up of my nerves and stuff .

      Toe walking can be a symptom of certain neurologic conditions so having a neuro work up makes sense. If it is structural and not neurological, and you and your parents want the condition resolved, then yes, surgery can resolve it. A word of advice, if you choose surgery, make sure the provider does this surgery regularly and sets realistic expectations for the outcome. If you or your parents have any questions please feel free to contact our office directly. Thanks for watching our video and sharing your experience. pediatricfootankle.com/

      Yes, it can be resolved. Even if your toe walking began as neurological, by age 23, it is likely now structural.

    Hi Doctor, Just a few questions for a 40 year old: Does this alleviate foot/ankle pain long term? How much does this affect ankle mobility? Can you play high foot impact sports like basketball, boxing, tennis? How does this affect running/jogging/ lifting weights such as deadlift and squats? Can all the above sports and exercises be improved/safe to do? Thank you
