Can arch foot be treated

summary

A lot of babies will be found with arcuate feet when they walk. A colleague's child is arcuate feet. Now that the treatment is finished, I'd like to explain to you whether the treatment of arcuate feet can be done.

Can arch foot be treated

First of all, the arched foot refers to the examination of the patient's foot. It can be seen that the foot is bent forward and backward, the arch is very high, and the toe is in the dorsal flexion of the metatarsophalangeal joint to form a claw shape. When the patient is standing, it can be seen that the middle part of the foot can not touch the ground all the time. Draw a line from the patient's medial malleolus to the inner side of the head of the dead metatarsal bone. Normally, it should pass through the scaphoid tubercle. At this time, the scaphoid tubercle.

Secondly, in principle, soft tissue surgery should be performed first, such as plantar soft tissue release, anterior and posterior tibial tendon displacement and extensor digitorum longus posterior displacement. If the deformity can not be corrected by soft tissue surgery, or if the elder children have fixed high arch foot deformity, orthopedic surgery can be selected.

Finally, when the arch foot has hindered the weight-bearing walking, wearing shoes, or progressive aggravation, surgery should be performed. Surgical methods can be divided into soft tissue release and bone surgery. Generally, according to the patient's age, deformity type and severity, the state of the primary disease and other factors, the effect of surgery in the treatment of arcuate foot is very good, and it is the only method. For the patients with serious disease, surgery should be carried out as soon as possible. Pre age prevention is mainly to develop good eating habits, not partial to sugar, high fat, high calorie food. Develop the habit of participating in all kinds of physical activities and labor. For example, when you can walk, try not to take a car. When you go up and down stairs, you should climb the stairs by yourself instead of taking the elevator.
