What is pediatric orthopedics?

Pediatric orthopedics is the medical care that focuses on fixing problems with bones, joints, backs, or muscles in babies, children, and teenagers. These problems can be something a child is born with or caused by accidents, hard physical activity, or problems with growth. While regular bone problems in kids can sometimes be treated by a regular doctor, special pediatric orthopedic doctors are needed for certain complex conditions.

This type of care is harder than general orthopedic care because children’s bones grow fast and are very flexible, unlike adult bones which are stiff. Some bone and muscle problems happen only in children, and it can be hard to figure out what’s wrong because children might have a tough time explaining their pain or discomfort.

What Types of Problems Do Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons Treat?

Children can have many problems with their bones, muscles, and joints. While simple problems can be treated by regular doctors, more serious issues need care from pediatric orthopedic specialists. You should get help right away if your child has any of these:

  • Spine problems like scoliosis, kyphosis, or lordosis
  • Neuromuscular conditions such as cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy
  • Crooked arms or legs, or legs that are different lengths
  • Hip problems like Perthes Disease, SCFE, or hip dysplasia
  • Knee problems including ACL injuries, OCD, meniscus tears, or patellar instability
  • Infections or tumors in bones or joints
  • Broken bones, bone cysts, or sports injuries
  • Shoulder problems like SLAP tears
  • Developmental delays or Down’s syndrome

Pediatric orthopedic surgeons are trained to find, treat, and manage these conditions. Some problems, especially those caused by developmental delays, may need several types of treatments working together.

Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons: Specialty Care for Children

Children’s bones and muscles need special care because they are still growing and changing. Sometimes children can’t clearly say how they feel because they don’t have the words yet or they might be scared. That’s why pediatric orthopedic doctors carefully check each child’s condition and choose the best treatment, which might be surgery or other methods. These doctors understand the challenges of growing bones and, when needed, create a recovery plan that includes the child’s family to give full support. For some bone or muscle problems, they might work with other specialists to provide the best care possible.
