Specialized, gentle orthopaedic care for children's bone and joint conditions — from newborns to adolescents.
Children's bones, joints, and muscles are fundamentally different from adults'. They grow rapidly, heal faster, and respond to treatment in unique ways. However, untreated or improperly managed paediatric orthopaedic conditions can affect growth, development, and quality of life into adulthood.
At Arun Ortho, we provide a child-friendly environment where young patients are treated with extra care and patience. Dr. Arun D. has extensive experience managing congenital, developmental, and traumatic conditions in children of all ages.
Congenital deformity of the foot and ankle corrected with Ponseti casting and minimal surgical intervention.
Abnormal development of the hip joint requiring early detection, bracing, and sometimes surgical correction.
Abnormal spinal curvature during growth requiring monitoring, bracing, or corrective surgery.
Musculoskeletal complications of CP including contractures and bony deformities requiring orthopaedic intervention.
Physeal injuries requiring careful management to prevent growth disturbance and leg length discrepancy.
Difference in leg length causing gait abnormalities, managed with orthotics or limb equalization surgery.
Age-appropriate examination with parents present, using play-based techniques to gain the child's trust.
Low-dose X-ray, ultrasound (for infants), and MRI with child-sized protocols to minimize radiation exposure.
Casting, splinting, Pavlik harness, KAFO bracing, and Ponseti casting as first-line management.
Surgical correction under general anaesthesia when conservative treatment is insufficient, using growth-friendly implants.
Regular follow-up until skeletal maturity to monitor correction, detect recurrence, and guide further management.
