Paediatric Orthopaedics

Paediatric Orthopaedics

Children are distinct from adults in their anatomical and physiological makeup, necessitating specialized medical treatment. Orthopedic issues in children, ranging from birth-related conditions and congenital anomalies like clubfoot, gait abnormalities or hip dysplasia, to children’s fractures, demand continuous care from infancy through adulthood. Therefore, paediatric orthopedic services must be customized to address the specific needs of young patients.

A Paediatric Orthopedist is a skilled Orthopedic Surgeon with extensive training in the treatment of bone and joint issues in growing children. Dedicated to paediatric care, this specialist undergoes extensive training, beginning with a five-year medical school program, followed by a three-year residency in Orthopedics, and culminating in a one to two-year Pediatric Orthopedic Fellowship abroad.

Children’s musculoskeletal problems differ significantly from those of adults. As children are still developing, their reactions to injuries, infections, and deformities can vary markedly from adults. Often, issues that might appear concerning can simply be normal growth variations that resolve over time. Many conditions affecting children's bones and joints are not seen in adults. Moreover, for similar issues found in adults, both the assessment and treatment methods differ in pediatric cases.

Paediatric orthopedic surgeons are adept at examining and treating children in a manner that makes them feel comfortable and helps address their emotional concerns. Visit the best pediatric orthopaedic treatment hospital in Navi Mumbai for the most advanced care.
