    What is Pediatric Orthopedic?

    The musculoskeletal system of a child is different from that of an adult. Their bones and joints are in the growing phase. Any deformities in the child’s bones or an injury can make a big impact on their development. To help address such issues, our pediatric orthopedic specialists evaluate your children’s growth patterns, identify structural or other issues in their bones, and provide comprehensive treatment accordingly.

    Deformity Correction

    Deformities in children do not just limit their movements, but can also affect their confidence and social interactions. At Elite, we have a team of orthopedic experts who are great at diagnosing and treating many birth defects in babies.

    A few common deformities we’ve treated so far include:

    • Bow legs
    • Knock knees
    • Clubfoot
    • Limb length discrepancy 
    • Angular deformities 
    • Blount’s disease
    • Flat foot
    • Pigeon toes
    • Out toeing
    • Hip dysplasia
    • Webbed fingers or toes
    • Spinal deformities 

    The list goes on. Schedule an appointment with our top pediatric orthopedic surgeon in Mulund to learn more about pediatric deformities, their possible causes, and treatment options.

    Other Bone and Joint Treatments

    Not only deformities, but Elite hospital has professionals specializing in other medical conditions related to children’s bones, joints, and muscles. Here’s what else we treat:

    Birth Defects

    Some babies are born with deformities, while others might develop them later in life because of deficiencies, injuries, or other causes. We understand that deformities or congenital defects can cause panic in parents.

    Bring your child to us if you suspect any birth defect that's causing pain, movement restriction, poor posture, or other problems. We'll carefully assess your child and offer a suitable treatment. At Elite, many orthopedic birth defects, such as clubfoot, hip dysplasia, and congenital limb differences, can be corrected.

    Fractures and Injuries

    We understand how painful it must be for parents to watch their little ones in pain or discomfort after sustaining a joint injury. Rest assured that we have the best children's bone specialist in Mulund. We specialize in all kinds of bone injuries, including complex fractures that may require surgical correction. For simple fractures, we use casts, splints, and other non-invasive equipment.

    Cerebral Palsy

    Head injuries in babies, jaundice, severe infection, poor blood circulation to the brain, premature birth, and other factors that may damage the baby's brain before birth or in infancy can lead to cerebral palsy.

    The symptoms include poor balance and posture, muscle stiffness, and delayed milestones, such as sitting, crawling, or walking. At Elite, we use a combination of treatment plans, such as physiotherapy, orthotic devices, medication, and surgical treatments, to correct deformities that occur due to cerebral palsy.

    Bone Infections

    It occurs when bacteria reach your bones and joints through the bloodstream. Bone infections are critical, as they can cause permanent damage to your child's bones if not treated soon. Children below 5 are more likely to be affected. Our pediatric orthopedic hospital in Mulund offers prompt treatment for bone infections, ensuring your child's prompt recovery.

    Bow Legs

    Most babies have bow legs due to their position in the womb. This usually resolves on its own by the time they are 3-4 years old. However, if your baby is older than three and seems to have bow legs, i.e., the knee curving outward, leaving a wide space between their legs as they move, consult our children's bone specialist in Mulund. It could be due to Blount's disease, vitamin D deficiency, which can result in rickets, or, rarely, bone infections.

    At Elite, we observe your baby's bone development. If the bowing persists beyond 3, bracing can be used to straighten your baby's legs. In severe cases, our pediatric orthopedic surgeon in Mulund might perform surgical repair to correct the deformity.

    What to Expect During Your Pediatric Orthopedic Consultation?

    If you are worried about your appointment with us, rest easy knowing that we make the process as hassle-free and comfortable for parents as possible. During consultation, our orthopedic specialists will ask you questions about your child’s:

    • Medical history
    • Growth milestones
    • Birth history
    • Family history of orthopedic issues
    • Pain, discomfort, difficulty walking, posture-related issues, and other problems with bones and joints.

    Our doctor will examine your baby for posture and walking issues. We check their limb alignment, joints, and muscles to ensure they are strong, flexible, and stable.

    Diagnosis

    If your child seems to have a congenital orthopedic defect or other medical conditions that can be the underlying cause of their joint issues, we will run tests to identify the main issue.

    Tests, like X-ray, ultrasound, and blood tests (if infection or deficiencies are suspected), may be needed for proper evaluation.

    Once the reports are in, we will explain the diagnosis and possible treatment options to you. We understand your concerns. We are here to listen to your issues patiently and answer your questions.

    Treatment Plan

    Treatment at Elite depends on the diagnosis. Some conditions require watchful waiting while others may need medication or even surgery. But there’s nothing to worry about. Surgery is usually the last resort, i.e., when medication or other non-invasive treatments have failed. Initial treatments usually include casting, bracing, physiotherapy, and medication.

    Visiting an orthopedic specialist for children can offer you significant relief. We clear your doubts, give a clear picture of the diagnosis, and help you decide on a treatment that’s the most reliable option for your child. So, why wait? Book a consultation with our pediatric doctors right away, and rest assured that we are here for your assistance.
