How should I check my childs feet and how often?
It is very important to check your childs feet and shoes very often. Check your childs toenails (colour, shape, length etc.) as well as for axial deformations of the toes (over or under-lapping) and skin disorders. If your child goes to a swimming pool or gym (warm and damp environments) extra care is needed because warts or fungi may etc. appear. Shoes should be checked often for abnormally worn sections that might indicate that your child has stability problems. In addition you should take your child to a foot specialist for periodical check ups.
