Pediatric orthopedics

Often after a walk the child claims his legs are tired and sore. Very often, problems such as impaired posture, muscle imbalance, pain in the legs and back appear in children with the development of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system: flat feet, clubfoot, scoliosis etc. In addition, most congenital pathologies may not occur for a long time and do not disturb the child. However, in the process of growth and development, and due to increased physical activity, even minor pathologies of the development of the musculoskeletal system can lead to serious problems in the future.

Early diagnosis of any abnormalities in the musculoskeletal system will not only help to take measures and improve the health state but also stop the disease development, which can affect general well-being, as well as the development of other systems, such as cardiovascular, nervous and so on.

The main task of the pediatric orthopedic at the Healthy&Happy Medical Center is to identify pathologies of the child’s musculoskeletal system in the early stages. During the examination, the orthopedist-traumatologist monitors whether the baby’s skeleton is developing correctly checks the child’s posture, evaluates whether the joints work correctly and how the child puts his foot.

• the pain in muscles and joints;
• asymmetric development of limbs;
• injuries, including fractures, sprains, dislocations;
• bites, wounds, burns;
• the stoop;
• the clubfoot;
• foot deformity.

For the diagnosis, orthopedists at the Healthy&Happy Medical Center use modern methods, including laboratory and instrumental diagnostics.
