What types of problems do pediatric orthopedic surgeons treat?
A child’s musculoskeletal problems are different from those of an adult. Because children are still growing, the body’s response to injuries, infections, and deformities may be quite different than what would be seen in a full-grown person.
Children with complex pediatric problems are best managed by a medical-surgical team approach. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons diagnose, treat, and manage children’s musculoskeletal problems, such as:
- Limb and spine deformities noted at birth or later in life (clubfoot, scoliosis, limb length differences)
- Gait abnormalities (limping)
- Broken bones
- Bone or joint infections and tumors
Helping Children Feel Well
One of the most important things parents, and other family and friends, can do for kids with an orthopedic ailment is to learn how to support their child. Injuries, illnesses, and medical conditions can cause anxiety and depression in kids, and knowing how to support children is an important role for parents to take.
Foremost, do not be afraid to ask for help from your child’s orthopedic specialist or their pediatrician. These individuals have vast experience working with kids who have faced similar problems and should be able to help you navigate what is likely new territory for you. In the same light, don’t hesitate to tell medical professionals how you think your child can be helped. You know your child better than anyone else—their fears, their anxieties, their comforts—and sharing this with their medical team can help them take better care of your child.
Some simple tips to help with a child facing an orthopedic treatment:
- Encourage your child to ask questions, and address those questions seriously
- Reinforce brave behaviors with praise
- Don’t say “it won’t hurt” unless it won’t hurt
- Be supportive, comforting, and encouraging, a hug and a smile can go a long way
