What We Treat

Understanding Paediatric Orthopaedics

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.

Conditions

Conditions in Children We Treat

Club Foot (CTEV)

Congenital deformity of the foot and ankle corrected with Ponseti casting and minimal surgical intervention.

Developmental Hip Dysplasia

Abnormal development of the hip joint requiring early detection, bracing, and sometimes surgical correction.

Scoliosis in Children

Abnormal spinal curvature during growth requiring monitoring, bracing, or corrective surgery.

Cerebral Palsy Deformities

Musculoskeletal complications of CP including contractures and bony deformities requiring orthopaedic intervention.

Growth Plate Fractures

Physeal injuries requiring careful management to prevent growth disturbance and leg length discrepancy.

Limb Length Discrepancy

Difference in leg length causing gait abnormalities, managed with orthotics or limb equalization surgery.

Treatment

Our Treatment Approach

01

Gentle Paediatric Assessment

Age-appropriate examination with parents present, using play-based techniques to gain the child's trust.

02

Imaging Studies

Low-dose X-ray, ultrasound (for infants), and MRI with child-sized protocols to minimize radiation exposure.

03

Conservative Treatment

Casting, splinting, Pavlik harness, KAFO bracing, and Ponseti casting as first-line management.

04

Corrective Surgery

Surgical correction under general anaesthesia when conservative treatment is insufficient, using growth-friendly implants.

05

Growth Monitoring

Regular follow-up until skeletal maturity to monitor correction, detect recurrence, and guide further management.

Common Questions About
Paediatric Orthopaedics

Are flat feet in children a cause for concern?
Most infants and toddlers have flat feet, which is normal. The arches usually develop by age 6. If flat feet cause pain, clumsiness, or persist into older childhood, a pediatric evaluation is recommended.
How can I tell if my child has scoliosis?
Signs of scoliosis (spinal curvature) include uneven shoulders, one hip appearing higher than the other, or a prominent shoulder blade. Routine pediatric screening is the best way to catch it early.
Do children's fractures heal differently than adults?
Yes, children's bones heal much faster and have a unique ability to 'remodel' and straighten out as they grow. However, injuries near the growth plates require specialized care to prevent future growth issues.
What is clubfoot and how is it treated?
Clubfoot is a congenital condition where a baby's foot is turned inward and downward. It is highly treatable, usually starting shortly after birth with a series of gentle castings (Ponseti method) rather than extensive surgery.
When should my child see a pediatric orthopaedist?
You should consult a specialist if your child has persistent limb pain, a noticeable limp, visible deformities (like severe bowlegs or knock knees), or if they suffer a bone fracture or sports injury.
