Children's shoes for varus and clubfoot

A varus foot deformity (osteotomy) is a deformation of the ankle at an inward angle. In varus foot deformity, the heel of the shoe is stepped on the outside. This condition is hereditary.

Orthopedic antivarus therapeutic shoes are needed to correct clubfoot or varus foot deformities (osteotomy). They correct the abnormal shape of the foot and help the child adopt a correct posture. They are prescribed by a doctor and cannot be recommended for children with normal feet.

Children's therapeutic shoes differ from regular shoes in that:

  • has a high shin to correct an abnormal foot position;
  • have a large toe box for toe comfort;
  • provides the framework for an orthopedic insole prescribed by the doctor.

Outwardly, orthopedic therapeutic shoes look like ordinary footwear, so your child will not be embarrassed to wear them every day. Like the prophylactic shoes, the orthopedic therapy shoes for children are:

  • They're made of natural calfskin for all-day comfort;
  • is hypoallergenic as it has not been chemically treated;

  • an elastic polyurethane sole that ensures the correct rolling movement of the foot when walking;
  • a stable Thomas heel, which is essential for the correct distribution of the load on the foot. To treat foot deformities, the heel is lengthened on the inside of the sole.

Therapeutic shoes are also recommended for children with pronounced flat feet or cerebral palsy.

What are the differences between wrestling shirts for different types of rings?

Wrestling t-shirts are used for different types of wrestling. They differ in shape. In appearance. And also in the construction.

Let's take a look at wrestling socks for different sports.

Wrestling socks for freestyle wrestling

Freestyle wrestling is considered one of the most dynamic sports. During a fight, opponents often move from side to side. They perform different holds and postures.

It is therefore particularly important that the wrestlers have a good level of strength. Otherwise they can quickly deform.

When choosing products for freestyle wrestling, pay attention to what material the sole of the shoe is made of. Also pay attention to the choice of structure.

The sole of freestyle wrestling shoes should be made of high quality, dense materials. They should have a good grip on any surface. This prevents the child's feet from slipping during the fight. They also give the athlete a sense of stability.

The bottom of a freestyle wrestling shoe should feel comfortable. Its texture should have a soft material. In addition, it should be flexible. All this will help the child feel comfortable while wrestling.

We recommend buying wrestling shoes that are made of leather. This material can be natural or synthetic.

Wrestling shoes for Greco-Roman wrestling

The models of Greco-Roman wrestling shoes that you buy should also be very durable. Otherwise, they will tear when your child exercises.

If the wrestling shoes are durable, the athlete can perform all holds and postures. He or she will be able to survive throws. And survive other physical impacts during a fight.

What aspects should be considered when choosing wrestling shoes?

Size

Wrestling shoes should be purchased by size. We do not recommend buying oversized models.

Wrestling shoes that are too big will fall off the child. And cause discomfort.

Do not buy socks that are smaller than the child's current foot size. They put pressure on the child.

material

Don't buy real leather shoes. Replacement shoes of this type wear out quickly.

Instead, look for athletic shoes that contain a non-natural material.

Synthetic models are more durable. They are not torn for several months.

Presence of additional safety features in wrestling shoes

Before you buy, ask your advisor if a particular model of wrestling shoe has extra plates. These are designed to protect your child's feet from serious injury. Also, they make your kid feel comfortable during the fight.

Wrestling shoes with additional protective plates cost significantly more than models without them.

Comfort

Your child should try on the wrestling shoes in the store. And find out:

  1. Are the wrestling shoes comfortable to wear?
  2. Don't they fall off their feet.
  3. Whether they do not put pressure on the foot.
  4. Don't they pinch.
  5. Whether they cause skin irritation.

Wrestling suits can only be purchased after prior fitting.

outsole

If you're looking for a shoe that offers some grip on the ground, consider shoes with a knurled surface. These products are also non-slip outdoors. And in the hallway they reliably hold on the floor.

Choosing the right footwear

Shoes for club feet are available in a large selection in specialist shops. There are winter, summer, autumn/spring, indoor and outdoor shoes. When a flat-soled shoe does not fit properly, the footwear is designed to redistribute the load. The choice of orthopedic footwear is best left to the doctor. He or she will consider the severity of the clubfoot, the tendency for the pathology to progress, and the severity of the associated symptoms. Having received all the recommendations, visit the orthopedic salon, where you can put them into practice.

  • Ask your child to walk, jump or even run during the fitting;
  • The quality of the model can be judged by the minimum number of stitches;
  • If you have an asymmetric clubfoot, it is not advisable to buy shoes from a shoe store - ask a staff member to contact the factory to order a custom-made shoe;
  • Shoes, boots and slippers must be the right size for the length of the foot. If they are too tight, the child will experience pain and abrasions when moving around. Models that are too wide do not do justice to their therapeutic function;
  • When choosing winter boots or shoes, you should give preference to those with small spikes on the soles that provide stability. This reduces the risk of dangerous falls and serious injuries.

Buying shoes for clubfoot, given the rapid growth of the child, is categorically forbidden, since there is no use in them. Parents need to buy them once a quarter or even more often. After all, a child with clubfeet quickly wears out even the sturdiest of shoes and boots. It is therefore not advisable to buy used products, no matter how good they are. Their sole has already taken on the shape of the previous owner's foot, so they can no longer absorb shock when walking.

Principles of Carrying

The prescription of an orthopedic shoe is determined by the doctor, as is the length of time it is worn. These shoes are worn from the first days of treatment and even with regular sports and gymnastics. Doctors usually recommend gradually increasing wear time by one hour per day. In this way, the child can get used to the stress and adjust to the still unfamiliar foot position. Shoes should always be removed before going to bed or during the day, as lying down can put pressure on soft tissues and blood vessels.

Wearing orthopedic shoes not only has a positive effect on the physical but also on the psychological condition of a child with clubfoot. The patient does not have to constantly monitor the load on the foot and ankle or the intensity of the movement. In this way, the body mobilizes itself to counteract the pathology and speed up recovery.

Congenital clubfoot

Congenital clubfoot

mechanical causes Causes of clubfoot during pregnancy. Because the fetal skeleton is not fully developed, the baby's bones can deform slightly when compressed by the uterus. Most commonly, this is caused by not enough water or improper positioning of the baby in the uterus.

Genetic causes are caused by chromosomal mutations that occur more than once in the same family. If an older relative has or had clubfoot, the risk of the disease running in the family is increased.

Musculoskeletal causes are also associated with the fact that the problem already occurs in the womb of the child. It can be caused by mineral deficiencies, alcohol consumption by pregnant women, drugs or medications that are harmful to the fetus, or developmental disorders that are beyond everyone's control.

Acquired clubfoot

Clubfoot is usually acquired in childhood with the first attempts to walk. It is important to pay attention to how the child positions their feet when walking because acquired clubfoot is usually caused by parental neglect. Other causes can be:

  • Rickets;
  • childhood diseases (e.g. polio);
  • developmental problems caused by vitamin deficiencies or genetic factors;
  • Improperly fitting footwear;
  • foot injuries (abnormal bone healing after a fracture);
  • CNS diseases, etc.

Types of Clubfoot

The typical clubfoot does not extend beyond the foot and does not affect the rest of the skeleton in the early stages. It is caused by defects in muscles, tendons and ligaments. There are 3 degrees of severity in this form of clubfoot, the first two of which can be treated well on an outpatient or hospital basis, while the third requires surgery:

  • Grade 1 are minor changes in the foot that can be treated independently with treatments prescribed by a doctor, such as massage and therapeutic exercises;
  • At grade 2, the muscles are less stretchy and more difficult to treat, so a home massage therapist is always needed. a massage therapist at home or in a clinic, the use of paraffin packs or even plaster casts;
  • Grade 3: joint mobility is reduced, bones and muscles are severely deformed, and it is almost impossible to treat such a problem without surgery.

atypical shape

Atypical clubfoot extends beyond the foot and affects all or part of the musculoskeletal system. In 90 % of the cases, it occurs during pregnancy due to hereditary diseases. The atypical form can be:

  • Mild severity - if lower leg retains mobility - easily treatable;
  • Moderate severity - the child's leg movements are limited but possible - is treated with special physical therapy and sometimes surgery;
  • Severe severity - pathological changes that cannot be treated with physical therapy - can only be treated with surgery.

What is an antalgic shoe?

An X-shaped curvature of the feet is referred to by orthopedists as a valgus deformity. It is not difficult to determine if a child has this problem. If the child does not stand evenly on the whole sole when walking, but falls on the inner part of the sole and the toes and heels 'look up', this is a flat valgus foot deformity. In these children, the distance between the ankles of the tightly clamped feet is greater than 5 cm with the knees straight. You don't have to be an orthopedist to realize that when the central axis of the foot shifts, there is inevitably a shift in the ankle, toes, larger knee and hip joints, and spine. Walking children with even mild orthopedic problems usually have pain and swelling in their feet. Pretty serious consequences for a 'slight toe deviation', right?

A valgus deformity is much more common in children than you might think. Three out of ten toddlers by the age of three show symptoms of a valgus flat foot. It is one of the most common orthopedic pathologies in children of preschool and school age. In most cases, the valgus deformity resolves spontaneously as the muscles and ligaments develop. However, if there is no improvement, then it is time to take action. The sooner the better. At a young age, therapeutic orthopedic shoes can help, later only an operation can remedy the situation.

Antiflex shoes are specially designed models in which the foot and ankle are fixed in an anatomically correct position. By wearing it regularly, the child's foot 'remembers' the correct position and the deformation process is stopped. In addition, wearing orthopedic shoes relieves the spine, knees and hips. The first and most noticeable difference between standard and spastic shoes is the high, stiff insole, which actually has the task of fixing the foot.

How to choose the right type of shoe for your child.

In order to choose the right type of shoe for boys and girls, it is important to pay attention to certain aspects when shopping:

  • The product must adapt perfectly to the fullness of the foot: it must not be loose, but it must not squeeze the foot either;
  • The 'freedom' in therapeutic models should not be more than 1 cm;
  • The child should feel comfortable in the product in question (let the child take a few steps when trying it on);
  • the right model must have a wide and preferably closed toe, a Thomas heel and a high, stiff heel cap
  • orthopedic models always have fasteners or laces to ensure a snug fit;
  • Shoes for treating deformities should be made of breathable materials.

And of course it should not be forgotten that orthopedic shoes need to be changed just as often as normal shoes. Remember that children grow quickly, so shoe size should be checked every 6-8 months.

Another rule of thumb is how often and for how long the slippers should be worn. In most cases, orthopedists recommend limiting the therapy session to 4-6 hours per day. The child should not be forced to wear these shoes all day; at the same time, an hour-long walk in a therapy model will not have the desired effect. Children with cerebral palsy deserve special attention. They need a special type of orthopedic footwear - stabilization shoes - to support their feet.

How do I choose the right shoe size for my child?

When choosing shoes for your child, including orthopedic shoes, it's important to know your child's exact foot measurements. Measure the length of the bare foot from the heel to the tip of the big toe. In the case of special features (e.g. a very thick foot or a very narrow foot), it is also important to measure the width. Nowadays it is very convenient to buy children's products online, so pay attention to the size chart on the online store website. Additionally, to have a greater guarantee that you won't get the size wrong, you can consult a manager.

Another important aspect for a successful purchase is the intended use of the shoes. It is important that your child has the right footwear. This includes warm winter boots, summer sandals and sports shoes.

Rules for buying orthopedic shoes for children:

  • It is important to consider the intended use. They buy shoes to prevent problems or to treat existing defects. For example, non-slip shoes are indicated for children with clubfoot. And prophylactic orthopedic shoes do not heal, but keep the foot in the correct position.
  • Most manufacturers offer orthopedic models made of leather, suede or nubuck. This is important - you need a soft, breathable material. Leather or nubuck also ensure a good fit and prevent the foot from slipping. Another advantage is the aesthetic appearance of these shoes. They are beautiful and durable and are very easy to clean.
  • Pay attention to the characteristics of the insoles and the presence of the instep. The insole is selected taking into account the parameters of the child's foot and existing deformities. With universal preventive shoes, it is important that they are equipped with an insole. Therapeutic insoles can be purchased separately. They support the arch of the foot, improve cushioning, help shape the foot, stimulate muscle tissue and correct curvature. Your orthopedist should inform you of these characteristics once your child has been diagnosed.
  • Do not buy shoes of dubious quality. Products from unknown manufacturers not only do not help with proper foot development or correction, they can also aggravate health problems. Buy shoes from reputable manufacturers who have long specialized in the production of orthopedic models.
  • Pay attention to the appearance of the shoes. Children are often very moody when it comes to choosing their wardrobe. Don't think that orthopedic shoes limit your customers' choices. Children's orthopedic shoes come in a wide variety, and you can choose a model for every day or for holidays. There are fashionable, modern variants in different colors and designs. Orthopedic shoes can be monochromatic or multicolored, with the active use of decorations: patches, rivets, stones, bows, fur trimmings. Take into account all the wishes of the child so that the daughter or boy will be happy to wear the shoes you have bought.
