(Medical-NewsWire.com, October 23, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- It is a common misconception that bunions only develop among women who wear high heels frequently. According to the website Healing Feet, bunions affect people of all ages. Children are especially prone to bunions if the children's parents suffer from them. Many first-line options can help to treat this foot condition, and one of these options is wearing orthotic shoe inserts such as Hydrofeet® Kids.
A bunion is a bony growth located at the base of the big toe joint. What causes bunions in children is unknown, but heredity seems to be a big factor. According to reports, juvenile bunions are prevalent among children who also suffer from overpronation, flat feet, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, cerebral palsy, and Down Syndrome. The Huffington Post reports that juvenile bunions with foot pain can keep kids from walking long distances and engaging in physical activities.
HealingFeet.com suggests several options for treating bunions in children. These options include changing shoe types, using toe spacers, wearing overnight toe splints, and adding padding to the shoe. Wearing orthotics such as Hydrofeet® insoles for kids is not only a preventive measure in the development of juvenile bunions, it is proven to aid in reducing the pain this foot condition brings.
Hydrofeet® Kids insoles are a one-of-a-kind arch support for kids. Like the parent product, Hydrofeet® insoles, they provide a reflexology-like massage with a child's every step. The insoles are only as thick as a quarter, ideal for children who especially hate uncomfortable shoes. These insoles for kids adjust to the feet, reducing the impact between the feet and the ground.
For extremely severe bunions, surgery would be recommended. However, medical experts advise children to wait to undergo surgery until they have already reached their skeletal maturity. According to Huffington Post, girls reach skeletal maturity between the ages of 13 and15, while boys reach skeletal maturity between the ages of 15 and 17.
Midwest Health Solutions is an authorized seller of Hydrofeet® Kids and Hydrofeet® for women and men, which can be purchased on Amazon.
